I just wanted to let you all know that Rob and I got married last weekend  bear_wub :

We had a little ceremony at the registry office on Friday 4th October (for the legal part of the wedding) and then we had a beautiful handfasting on Saturday 5th October.

We had a fantastic weekend, it was quite warm and the sun stayed out for us.

Here are a few photos for you.

Enjoy x

Thanks everyone!

No-one (except a couple of my friends) knew what to expect at a handfasting, all they knew is that this type of wedding is that it pre-dates the church.

Thankfully everyone really enjoyed it, it really was a fantastic day!
