If you’ve read Claire & Gregor’s Scottish wedding below you’ll know that Michael is Claire’s bother, and that Lucy’s sister Emma was…..I’ve lost track again but anyway they are all beautiful weddings.
Lucy and Michael were married in Oakham School Chapel where friendly, multitasking vicar Revd. Alex Aldous not only conducted the service but found time to chauffeur the wedding car! They had a lovely warm spring day with reception at fabulous Rockingham Castle near Market Harborough. The castle has been privately owned by the same family for 450 years and stand magnificently on high ground visible from miles around.
Lucy’s father arranged an air display by two suicidal stunt planes. Great for video and it made the most of the “big skies” that the area seems to have.
It was a pleasure to meet and work with local photographer Nigel Ord Smith who was relaxed and professional throughout the day. As usual with photographers we enjoyed a good chat over our meal and look forward to working with each other sometime.
That man Gregor (Lucy’s new brother-in-law from the Scottish wedding) was there again. If you read the previous posting you’ll know that he was not keen on having a video. Well now that he’d seen my DVD he’d changed his mind and could not thank me enough. I love all that as you know by now! Then Michael paid me a big compliment in his speech telling everyone that “Barry’s DVD of Claire & Gregor’s wedding had been watched more times than Titanic”. I don’t often blush.
