Our friends Mike (one of G’s coworkers) and Alex were married this weekend in Beccles…near Suffolk.
We had AMAZING weather for our trip to this little riverside town and were able to enjoy a run along the river, an ice cream at the Quay and an absolutely spectacular wedding event–thanks Mike & Alex!
Unfortunately, we forgot our camera at home, but G did manage to snap a few shots with his iPhone. 🙂
First, the church was built in 1291! Yes, that’s right. 1291!! The pastor (the bride’s cousin) was once a Versace model. She wore her mom’s English lace veil. The reception was held inside a huge marquee outside the family manor house (Mufton Hall). Guests included the daughter of the once president of Cyprus, a BBC commentator, a journalist from Parliament…not to mention over a hundred others who were the absolute nicest people you could ever hope to meet. Add to this mix the absolute sweetest, most caring couple who thought of every possible detail in order to make every guest feel valued and at home. And you have–the perfect wedding day! It was spectacular. So happy to have been a part of it.
Congratulations Alex & Mike, thanks for letting us be a part of your day!!!
We traveled back to London today to enjoy the remainder of the bank holiday weekend! Thank goodness for the weekend sunshine!
