Lynne and George

Tue, 27 Apr 2010 00:00:00 -1000

Lynne and George were married in a friends garden in Kialla on the 17th of April. Lynne and George's ceremony didn't leave a dry eye amongst the guests. Lynne and George incorporated a "ring warming"ritual in their ceremony.

"Thank you Jennifer, you were wonderful as our celebrant. Our beautiful and heartfelt ceremony, which truly reflected the very essence of us, was just perfect."

Lynne's mother wrote the following (and kindly gave permission, for me to copy and paste)

Saturday dawned bright and clear, and the girls were to dress in our room. The flowers were delivered to our door and they were lovely. Soon all was make up and bustle, and from it emerged three stunningly gorgeous young girls and one very beautiful bride. It was to be a lunchtime Wedding, so we were into the cars for the short drive to the home of the Groom's Sister.

What followed was magic. It was a very beautiful wedding, with carefully chosen vows, and a delightful touch, when a small organza bag containing the rings was passed from hand to hand amongst all the guests, to enable the rings ‘to be warmed with love'. I don't think there was a dry eye by the time they were pronounced married. "I have been to many weddings over the years, but I don't recall any performed with as much beauty and meaning".
