Have been absent for quite a while on this forum - Sorry.
ALL my time has been spent fretting about plants and flowers for our only daughter’s wedding on June 26th.
The worry about how many could attend and who would have to be “disinvited” only added to the worry about whether flowers would be ready for bouquets, boutonnières, table flowers, church flowers etc etc etc.
Anyway all over now - phew, huge sigh of relief.
You’ll be pleased to know that the quaking grass was too late for the event (as were lots of other things I had been hoping for) so at least she didn’t have any “weevils” in any of the flower decorations!
All went brilliantly, except that the beribboned bridal car broke down on the way to Church. The bride in full regalia and her father in his Sunday best had to push it on to a grass verge outside a hotel that just happened to be holding a Wedding Fair that day. Excellent advertising for them!
I just wish I had been there to take photos. Almost “Candid Camera” for those of us old enough to remember that programme.
Many, many lovely people stopped to try and help, and the bride hitched a lift and got to church with ten minutes to spare. The car, in disgrace, did NOT make it to the Church or the ceremony.
