Well, after a few days of preparation and polishing (which were needed anyway prior to the new season) the wedding day dawned. Everything was set up so all I had to do was to climb in and drive off. A short journey down the A1 and 326 entered - for the first time other than ploughing up and down the A1 - Rutland, and soon enough we were sat in front of the Oakham School Chapel. I then disappeared to get changed and to have lunch although a few curtains did twitch in school from those still working as most people hadn't seen a sight like this before! We were very lucky with the weather with a significant gap between the howling winds of earlier in the week and the non-stop drizzle of the early part of the Easter weekend.
The evidence of days of polishing and cleaning and painting!
After the short but excellent service in Chapel, the bride and groom were taken in leisurely fashion to the reception venue though not after a quick stop for some more professional photos, arriving at the Hall with blues and twos on of course to please the waiting crowds!
