A wedding in a paddock

The amazing cake, made by my friend Catherine.

We’ve known each other since we were babies.

So, it rained. Starting an hour before the ceremony, it rained and continued on throughout the rest of the day, meaning I don’t have nearly as many post ceremony photos as I would like.

But that’s okay.

Isaac refused to carry the rings or walk down the aisle, hiding in my neck like a koala instead.

My mothers friend did my flowers and they made me happy every time I looked at them. My house is now full of gerberas and I love it.

I think that’s about it. I’m still exhausted, I think it’s going to take a week to recover. I could not have gotten through yesterday without the amazing help from my little brothers friend Rhiarna (not pictured) who worked tirelessly and therefore has my eternal gratitude. Also, Tan (who did the flowers) and her daughter and daughters boyfriend .

Amazing people. Really.

    Congratulations Veronica! It doesn’t matter that it rained, all it matters is that you had a great day, with your HUSBAND and family. And holding Isaac like that makes the pictures just so much more unique, because that’s YOUR family. That’s who you are… (PS: Amy’s dress is gorgeous!!)
    Here’s to a long life of happiness and joy. Congratulations agains….

    Lovely photos. It rained on my wedding day, all misty and drizzly in the Huon Valley. As far as I’m concerned, it’s good luck.

    Love the flowers, and the third photo is just lovely.

    Congratulations to you all.

    Congratulations Veronica! In France we say “Mariage pluvieux, mariage heureux” which means “Rainy wedding = happy marriage” I’m sure it works when it’s in Tasmania too! Vive les mariรฉs!

    What matters most is you enjoyed your day, were happy on your day. Congratulations again! By th way, I did a quick double take on the cake. I noticed the initials which are the same as my hubby’s and mine. Though my hubby doesn’t share the same name, even though you and I do.
