Mr & Mrs Galea!

My friend Lorna got married to Tony on April 26th in Heswall, Wirral. It was an amazing day...
... the service was fantastic- Annie especially loved the order of service! Yum!
The flowers in the church (arranged by our friend Claudia)...
...and the bouquets of flowers were gorgeous!
Lorna & Tony looked stunning! They are a lovely couple...
The views across the River Mersey from the church were breath taking & the weather (although the photo doesn't suggest it) was warm & sunny.
It was so good to spend time with friends especially Miriam & her husband Arpad & their daughter Zara (who is a few weeks younger than Annie). They moved to Ireland last summer so it was the first time we had met Zara. She's a cutie!
It was also great to spend the day with this cheeky monkey!
The food at the wedding breakfast was delicious, the speeches were humorous & moving. We loved the video montage that Lorna put together. I don't think there was a dry eye in the house!
And of course, the high light for me was the cutting...
...and eating of the cake I had made! I was SO relieved that the cake not only looked good but tasted delicious too! (I'll let you into a secret- I had never made a traditional fruit cake before & had no idea what it would taste like!!!)
All in all it was a fabulous day! Congratulations once again Mr & Mrs Galea! ;0)

Annie looks so content in the church service with her accompanying words! Elizabeth would have been going mad after 5 minutes! xxx
