Day 10: Wales – Ruthin
Despite rain being forecast for the day, it was overcast but the rain held off.
The morning was a blur with putting final touches up in the marquee, Kirst and Robs doing the bride and bridesmaids make up and hair and getting ourselves ready.
St Meugan’s Church in Llanrhydd, like all buildings in Ruthin was old and full of charm. We were treated to the Trelawnyd male voice choir before and during the service. Welsh men sing beautifully and they really pulled out all the stop attempting a rendition of the South African National anthem, a touching tribute.
Chrissie looked beautiful and the service was beautiful, bringing many a tear on this happy occasion.
The festivities started with champagne and the cutting of the cheese cake, made up of the most delicious Snowdonian cheeses. Followed by home made pork pies. We then entered the fairytale marquee and enjoyed a delicious high tea.
Festivities continued with more guests arriving and we enjoyed a hog and lamb spit for dinner. Followed by dancing late into the night.
An unforgettable, special wedding was enjoyed by all.
