Alex & Nicole’s Wedding

It’s taken them a while but our nephew Alex and his fiancee, Nicole finally tied the knot on Friday 11th November at Nottingham Cathedral.wed4

It was a marvellous day with Nicole looking stunning (Alex too of course). Friends and family had travelled far (USA, BVI, Bermuda, Barry, Belgium and even us from Yelvertoft!) to witness this great occasion.wed5

We then drove to Hambleton Hall for the reception:

A fantastic country hall booked exclusively for our use. There was champagne on arrival with a harpist playing in the hall, a very nice thought. Lots of photos – more champagne – a five course meal with wine, speeches, more champagne and then dancing to the wee hours.

The food was excellent - here is the gallantine of guinea fowl
