Gillian's wedding

"And we now take a moment of relative quiet to offer our own prayers for the bride and groom" adlibbed the vicar, as the child who had screamed and kicked the panelling all through the service continued to do so, but even still, it was a lovely service. Gibside Chapel, apparently quite recently restored, is a beautiful place to get married, even in October, where the greyness held off enough for champagne outside afterwards. And yet again, a core of Sage Chamber Choir stalwarts beat the A1 traffic accident nightmare to perform at a service for one of our members. Obviously the beauty of the place and of the choir's singing only came close to the beauty of the bride, who seemed to be having a fantastic day. As it should be. And I hope her mum was rightly proud the the exceptionally pretty dress that she made for her.
