The Wedding of Sian and Pete


A summer of Weddings that we would have missed if we had gone to Australia in April continued on Friday with the Wedding of Sian and Pete. It was a fantastic day and Sian and Pete looked so happy, we wish them every happiness together. The ceremony took place in a lovely little church accessed through a field. Come 2pm there was standing room only as Pete entered closely followed by Sian. The "teachers" amused ourselves with singing in the style of the kids at school adding additional words where they were not needed just like the kids! Which raised a smile!

The reception was held in the grounds of Killerton House a National Trust property just outside Exeter. The setting was stunning as was the inside of the marquee, everything had been thought of. The afternoon followed the usual Wedding reception format with drinking, food, drinking, speeches followed by drinking and the wearing of mint leaves as eyebrows... nice one Dan! The band took us off into the night before I brought things to a close on the decks. We all had a great time and I could remember most of it still in the morning... including the odd embarrassing conversation! Ooopps! Beth and I slept in Stan before packing the rest of the stuff in the morning and loosing the electronic key to Lou and Lloyd's car. It turned out that it had fallen out of Stan when I drove to the main entrance.... we returned later to find it on the grass... phew!
