I had a very pleasant morning pottering about in the countryside. I bought some sunflowers and a vase and had a lovely breakfast out on the terrace of the gatehouse.12:57:31
Al and his groomsmen polishing their shoes together out the back of the gatehouse.12:57:33
12:57:49
Close up on Al.
12:57:54
I'd actually never really polished a shoe before, believe it or not - never occurred to me I even could with my vegetarian shoes.12:58:00
12:59:54
The finished products.13:00:02
13:00:05
13:00:12
Rather like this picture of Al having a relaxing pre-wedding cup of tea.13:00:23
Chie's Mum did her hair for her, I think it looks rather nice.13:11:31
Me and Chie in the back garden of the gatehouse, with the fields beyond. The sort of picture you'd see in Country Life.
13:11:34
13:11:38
13:11:42
13:26:36
Me and Chie immediately after getting dressed.

In the church now.

14:04:29
14:04:45
14:04:53
Me and Al waiting at the front - I've got the rings look.
14:04:56
14:07:51
14:08:07
14:08:09
14:09:39
14:09:48
15:03:35
After the ceremony, signing the register (I think Chie felt a bit awkward about getting up from her seat which is why you can't really see what's going on here!).15:06:33
Here come the newlyweds.
15:06:37
15:06:41
Me and Diana, one of the bridesmaids processing behind Al and Charlotte.15:06:43

Outside the church.15:10:01

Chie and the church.15:28:13
Al, Charlotte and confetti.
15:28:16
15:28:22
15:32:02
Al, Charlotte and the flower girls walking down the track back to the house.16:08:37
At the reception now, here's me, Hannah and Rosie.
16:24:44
Me having some afternoon tea. I think this shot shows off my morning suit rather nicely.16:24:58
I enjoyed the little sign they put in my afternoon tea plate.16:54:57
Chie enjoying the little orchard in the garden.17:03:59
Some group shots set up by the official wedding photographer.
17:04:08

19:59:24
At the dinner now, around dessert, as I started to get nervous about making a speech.20:24:45
Charlotte's Mum making the first speech (she was very good).
20:30:06
Al's speech.20:39:30
....so my speech now.20:39:34
Happily people appear to be laughing here.21:27:17
Hannah and Kyle on the dancefloor.
21:27:20
21:27:54
Me looking rather relieved after having finished my speech.21:38:11
I was trying to get a nice picture of my shoes, which I'd bought for the occasion, to send to the chap who runs the company who made them, as we'd had a bit of a discussion beforehand about what would be most appropriate with a morning suit.21:39:19
The marquee as seen from outside.
21:40:13
More attempts to get a nice shoe picture.21:40:20
21:58:19
Chie in the marquee.21:58:36
Probably the best shoe picture.
