Back in the dining tent, Christina of Yorkie Wraps, was finalising the wedding breakfast, cooked over an open fire. The Yorkie Wraps were most welcome, with my assistants, Abigail and Caithlin starting to feel the chill after being outside all afternoon. With guests now warm and toastie, MC Dan ‘Ding’ Graham opened the floor to speeches. The Bride, as should be, came first followed by her father, Riad whose funny, kind and poignant words touched everyone. The Groom as charming as ever, praised his good fortune (or as his brother would say ‘jammy’) in meeting Jasmine.

As any good parent will tell you, they don’t have a favourite but when it comes to speeches, big brother Dan ‘Ding’ Graham won all the accolades for the night’s speeches. His anecdotes relating to he and his brother’s escapades had me roaring with laughter. I’ll never see a Chess piece without thinking of Jack, and his meteoric rise to a quarter final Chess champion without actually winning a game, or knowing how to play Chess.

Before I knew it, the Father & Daughter dance was taking place, followed by the First Dance for Jasmine & Jack. With DJ Kieran firing up his decks and the guests ready to dance, I packed up my case and walked back to my trusty steed for the journey home. Sadly I missed the opportunity to try Harvey of Pura Vida Taco’s evening feast but there I’m sure there’ll be another wedding, another day.
