A fantastic end to a fantastic day

After the first time I met Ceri & Alex I knew their wedding was going to be fun and nearly a year after we first met it was more fun than I could have imagined! I met with Ceri at her parents home to organised chaos but somehow everyone knew what they were doing. It was like watching a rehearsed ballet! The wedding took place in the beautiful St. John the Baptist Church in Berkswell. I have never seen a hair stylist at the Church before but I will never forget as soon as Ceri stepped out of the wedding car her hair stylist appeared to fix any last-minute hair issues unknown to Ceri, he even had cans of hairspray in the inside pockets of his suit jacket! How cool? Ceri didn’t know about it he just appeared! The ceremony was accompanied by the highly talented Amanda Whiting, the best harpist I have ever heard let alone worked with. Great to see you again Amanda hope it wont be as long till we work together again.

The ceremony went perfectly with a very touching reading from Serenity, Ceri & Alex’s daughter. Serenity you where perfection, well done! When all had been signed and blessed off we went to The Lake at Barston which is at the back of the West Midlands Golf & Country Club a superb backdrop for the wedding reception. Another fun surprise waited there as we were treated to Phase One steel band now that’s the way to kick off a party! It wasn’t long before Ceri’s Dad was having a go then Ceri herself and the bridesmaids which sounds like a band!

The rest of the evening went along the same way helped by the amazing Paul Martyn entertainer who got everything rocking as soon as he picked up the microphone. As the sun went down the party was in full swing. Thank you Ceri & Alek for letting me be a part of your wedding I had a great time!

I hope the rest of your lives together is as fun as your wedding, you wont go far wrong if it is! If you need anything you know where I am.

Take care,

Simon.
