Yesterday after a 20 year engagement Chris finally married his beloved Mandy at Spring Hall in Halifax surrounded by their children, but one of his daughters, Katherine had a trick up her sleeve…
Pearl and I were positioned around the corner ready to sweep in and pick up the newlyweds and to whisk them away to their reception in Hebden Bridge.
I don’t know who was more excited, me or the Bride and Groom!
I knew the bridesmaids were going to be wearing hot pink and the bride was wearing silver so I made up an outfit for Pearl to combine both and it worked a treat. The bouquet was so big that I could barely see down the bonnet so I attached it to her grille instead and it looked superb.
After making the arrangements with Katherine I suppose I’d come up with a mental picture of what the couple would be like. I knew that this was her Dad so I was expecting a ‘mature’ couple. Perhaps a bride in a modest skirt suit less silver more steel grey, with a neat haircut stepping out on the arm of a low key groom. ..Boy was I wrong!
I did a double take? Where’s the mumsy bride? Is this the right wedding?
Everyone was crowding around a blonde bride in a stunning silver gown and a groom looking more Al Capone than Alf Roberts.
Seems like they weren’t the only ones getting a surprise!
Congratulations to Mandy and Chris on finally doing the deed and thanks to Katherine for making it all happen x
