A wedding at Spicers Clovelly Estate is always special

I love going to Spicers Clovelly Estate to celebrate a wedding - David and Steph, along with the the indomitable Sam go out of their way to ensure everything is just as the happy couple wish it to be - and then some!
As we gathered for a rehearsal the day before Rebecca & Wesley's wedding the weather was threatening, but promising to clear as we all hoped it would because Rebecca really had her heart set on a garden wedding.
However - when we awoke on the morning of her wedding, showers that continued on into mid-afternoon were the order of the day.
Sam pulled a rabbit out of a hat by suggesting that we use the library verandah as the venue for the ceremony as, even though the rain had stopped, the ground was wet and risked spoiling Rebecca's beautiful dress.  In next to no time Sam had the verandah set up so that it looked elegant and quite lovely and, with the blinds up, Rebecca had her garden wedding whilst still being protected from any possible rain and the chilly wind.

Rebecca was a stunningly beautiful bride and her beaming face told us all that absolutely nothing, not even a bit of rain could spoil her wedding day.  And Wesley, when he first caught sight of his beautiful bride, well, I thought he was going to burst with love and pride!
Wesley and Rebecca - such a gracious couple, so in love and lovely - I wish you both many, many long years of joy together.
