We are Family……..

This blog will be all about how proud a Dad I am so you may wish to switch off now! We travelled down to Exeter on Thursday and called in on Dave and Vicky to check how things were for the weekend. Both were excited and looking forward to the weekend. We had a super Thai meal on Cathedral Green.

Friday afternoon was where the action started. We were initially struck by how barren the marquee at Double Locks looked until we got to work. Great team work saw the bunting and tape transform the venue. Clare had played a blinder doing metres and metres of bunting and table cloths out of attractive material. With Dave and Vicky’s little touches it all ready for action! Pete and Nicola later delivered the cake that Nicola had made.

On the Saturday morning I was Nicola’s assistant putting the cake together. It looked great and she was superbly organised.

The Guild Hall was an impressive venue for the actual wedding. I will admit it! I was very emotional watching my son and the radiant Vicky in front of me. “Cedric” our wonderful camper van was a great wedding vehicle bringing Vicky and her Dad to the Guild Hall and later taking Dave and Vicky to Double Locks. It all went like a dream, I was impressed and proud by all my family’s contributions. Pete was also joint Best Man. When we eventually went to bed we were both smiling!

Slowly recovering back at home after seeming to be away for ages. We are both tired!
