A 40's wedding blessing...

                 Our friends Karen and Tony have been married 25 years and for their silver  anniversary had a 1940's style wedding. It was held at Eden Camp which is a original prisoner of war camp but is now a museum. Karen and Tony are very into the 40's scene and this was very fitting.
           The day was fabulous.........      Karen leaving home ( a  mock up 1940's prefab house )
                                         The dress and veil were made to a 1940's pattern..
                                       Don't they look the part..
                                  Some of the guests ( it was obligatory 40's attire )
                                      With bridesmaids
                                               A fun moment..
                                                  Barrie with Karen




               The evening part was back in their own town and was also a great night..
                                            The first dance...
                                          They didn't want presents but asked that if anyone liked to give a donation to the British Legion.. Here they are presenting to the chairman of the British Legion..
                                          Before we left for the night do.. A very dapper Barrie..



              We all had a fabulous time...

     Last night we had some worrying news, Karen and Tony were at a 40's event yesterday and we heard that Tony had collapsed and was in hospital. e had a small update to say they may let him home today but no concrete news. We so hope he is ok. To have such a wonderful day on Saturday and this to happen on Sunday is awful. Get well Tony xxx

We will keep Tony in our prayers and pray he makes a quick and complete recovery. We will pray that Karen finds strength and comfort during this trying time.
Karen was such a beautiful bride and her gown was so soft and graceful. ( I recently read about war years bridal gowns being made from parachute silk!). They really are a lovely couple. You two, as always, look adorable. It was very thoughtful for donations to be given to the British Legion.
What a wonderful day.
