Lorryn's Wedding

Lorryn and Her Father entering the Wedding Garden

Lorryn has been waiting for this all important day for over twelve months.  It was that time last year she surprised everyone with her news.  Nick had proposed.  Lorryn beamed and chatted happily and endlessly about her future wedding, the ring, the dress and the arrangements.  You may imagine Lorryn and I met often to share coffee and catch up on her news, but I only know Lorryn as a work colleague.  She is young, pretty and full of life.  She worked in a different part of the office from me and we caught up briefly in the office kitchen or when I needed to ask her a question about a client or a community service.
Since I retired I have dropped by the office a few
times to say hello and catch up with staff.  I didn't want to miss Lorryn's 'Happy Day' and today it all came to fruition.


Garden Wedding Vows

The weatherman promised a few showers and I prayed he was wrong!  A light shower caused some anxiety before the 4pm wedding but quickly cleared.  The sky was cloudy and a cool refreshing breeze kept us pleasantly cool.  Their wedding was in the beautifully manicured gardens at Caversham House in the Swan Valley.  A number of office colleagues came to celebrate Lorryn and Nick's special day.  We kept busy before the ceremony catching up on personal news and taking photos. 
Lorryn and her father arrived in a horse and carriage.  Mother of the Bride, bridesmaids and small children arrived in an impressive black Hummer Limousine. Lorryn appeared radiant in her beautiful wedding dress.  Her father walked her down the aisle and the awaiting red carpet to her groom.  The ceremony was  tailored to Lorryn and Nick's requests and their vows and readings their own personal thoughts and ideals.  It was very special.

It is a joy to share the special wedding with a couple very much in love.   May their lives always reflect their love for each other.

Lorryn was happy to share her wedding day on my blog.
