mum & steve tie the knot

We celebrated mum's marriage to Steve last Saturday, 3 October, at a beautiful church service in Norwood followed by a cocktail party at the Botanic Gardens Restaurant. Mum looked absolutely divine in a dress made by Lian Khoe, our favourite local dressmaker (who, incidentally, made my wedding gown and bridesmaids dresses). It was a lovely night, and both Mum and Steve looked truly happy.

Spencer was fairly well behaved at the church service, although not overly content to sit quietly. He was mesmerised by the singing and piano playing, but I think his finest moment came when he joined me at the altar as I gave my reading - he sure loves to be the centre of attention, and even gave a royal wave as we left the pulpit!

The reception presented a rare opportunity for Tim and I to socialise with good friends without all of our respective children in tow, and it certainly made for a relaxing evening!
Congratulations Mum and Steve - may your life together be long and happy!
