The Wedding (Marcelle & Richard)

On Saturday the 3oth, our day started out in Grabouw with George & Lettie Strachan at her exhibition, which turned out to be 3km's down the road from the wedding venue, so it was well situated! We had a very encouraging time with them and then went to settle in at our accommodation. When we arrived, there was no-one at reception so we had to wait a bit, which would've been fine had Grace & Eli not decided that that would be the perfect time to fill their nappies with the most unsavoury smelling stuff. Plus, it was hot and we were anxious to get them settled, changed and ourselves ready for the wedding.

Amanda and Dion came out with us to babysit during the reception so that we could take the twins to the ceremony to meet Marcelle. It was a mad rush when we finally found the key (which was hidden under the mat!!) our overnight dwelling but we managed to arrive at the venue about 48seconds before the bride...

The venue was South Hill in Elgin and it was absolutely stunning! After a ceremony of trying to keep Eli & Grace occupied and moderately quiet, we shot back to Oupa & Ouma and then back again to the reception. We had an awesome time - thanks Marcelle & Richard!
