As of last Saturday afternoon my bestest friend is now Mrs Williams. It was a wonderful weekend from start to finish. I don't think I have enough words to describe how much I enjoyed it, and how priviledged I felt to be a part of it all.It was fun, and nerve wracking and stressful and hysterical. We laughed lots and we were a bit stressed - especially when I dropped about 40 glass tealight holders onto the pavement outside Milla's house reducing them to just 16!
We got exhausted, we got our nails painted, we drank more wine than we had intended to on Friday night.
We went for a head clearing nerve calming walk on Saturday morning and smoothly got ready. Minor disaster with a missing eyeshadow - small things suddenly matter in times of stress. Then I laced her into her dress, she put her veil and hair jewels on and we were ready.
Had a few wobbly bottom lip moments leading to a crescendo of nerves seconds before walking into the ceremony room and then we were off!
It was lovely to see two people so in love and so ready to deal with the ups and downs of life pledge themselves to each other forever. I think everyone got watery eyed as the groom's voice broke during his vows.
The party afterwards was great fun, the food was yummy, the wine flowed easily, the dancing was crazy and the cake was fab and all too soon it was over. James said it was the best wedding he's been to, and if ours is even half as fun filled and joyous I will be happy.
Here's to you Mr and Mrs Christopher and Camilla Williams, The Bride and Groom xx
