Day 7

this is it,

the morning of our wedding,

what could possibly go wrong?

well the telephone call we received first thing in the morning, but more of that later,

everyone had a hair do, well not me of course!

and was dressed in wedding clothes, like Diana's brother Sony and his son,

and of course Diana's Mum,

 Mum, Dad and ourselves,

 along with Melinda and Francisco,

 surprise!

 well Steve was I when I said he was the best man last night, I thought it better to keep it a secret,

after the ceremony a taste of cake,

and here she is, the blushing bride, we are still waiting for the wedding video and professional pictures, so I will post them when they arrive, the ceremony and meal for 150 of us went so well, as did Steve's two speeches,

we then went back to the hotel to open our wedding presents,

everyone had been so incredibly kind,

and we still had lots of cake left,

Diana was so happy,

well we all were,

smiling faces as far as you could see,

such lovely presents,

and clothes,

this is going to be fun, showing Diana how to use a pressure cooker, (not that I know, well you know me and kitchens, what could possibly go wrong?) but I will look on the Internet to find out!,

still more,

for our home,

and kitchen,

we were truly humbled,

by everyones generosity,

and thoughtfulness,

Daisy Mae thought it was great as well,

and so many reminders of this special day,

for all of us,

it was a dream come true, a perfect day, but back to the telephone call first thing on the morning of our wedding, we had all put money in for our honeymoon to Boracay, 12 of us had booked return flights from Manila to the island and 4 rooms for 5 nights on a beachside hotel from a travel agent near Walking Street, the agent called to say the flight had been cancelled, Diana checked, it had not, we had been conned out of 140,000 pesos on our wedding morning, no guesses as to what shop we will be going to tomorrow morning! the saga will start tomorrow, but that apart from that a perfect day, many, many thanks to everyone for their kind wishes and congratulations, with that we were off to bed.
