Woah, guys. I've been so busy the past couple of weeks. I've got plenty to talk about, but if I don't give 'the wedding of the year' top billing, Linda's going to hate me.
So. A couple of weeks ago, the gang and I went up to Worcestershire (or was it Gloucestershire? It seemed to be a bit hazy on that front) to see Linda and Tom get married!
It was a lovely day, and the weather held out too. Linda's the first of my 'first time at university' gang to get married. We all had lots of fun, as expected, and we tried our hardest not to compare the day to what we imagine Steve and Heather's wedding will be like next year. (Tried and failed. Sorry to bring the wedding wars on you, guys. But on the positive side, wedding wars sound cool, like robot wars only with more cake and fewer flame-throwers.)
Here are the happy couple (Linda and Tom, that is) enjoying their day.
More photos!
Just arrived at the venue and all excited. From left to right: Steve, Heather, Eppa, James, Nick.
The venue for the ceremony was gorgeous. It was a proper old country mansion. Look at those half-timbered walls! And those fully-timbered chairs! :D
The place even had a moat. Full of proper water. Good work, Linda and Tom. Good work.
I stole this photo from Nick and subsequently nearly lost all his other photos in the process. Sorry, man! During the reception, there was a professional photographer lady with a DRESS-UP BOX. I think I was considerably more excited about this than anyone else. But look! I've got a pipe!
Dinner was really really nice. Seriously, they kept stuffing us with food at this place, which is a good thing, because we kept shoving it right in our faces. (We were treating the day a bit like The Hunger Games only without any children killing each other.) After dinner, there were wedding games, cake cutting and dancing.
And that was it. Evening over.
Everyone go home.
Tell me about it. I take a break for one day and I get spammed out of the water!
