Hi

These are some of the photos. I'm the one in the brown and pink dress. I hope this works!

Thanks Bucky!

The cake was unusual - it was a granola cake with a little fruit. It was very nice, but not the sort that would keep - sorry!

BTW the little demon with the curls and pink bridesmaid dress is Mia, who had been a screaming terror for 4 days, but was an angel when she needed to be on the wedding day. The little boy in the wedding outfit like his dad's is Logan. He is 5 tomorrow.  My hubby is the one in the wedding outfit and the sunglasses, and my mum is the lady in the blue and gold dress.

Thanks Meld for pointing me out to Joe. I didn't consider the colour issue when I posted - sorry.

The wedding was at the Avanti hotel in Paphos. It was a beautiful place, and although the wedding party was fewer than 20, the staff at the hotel were second to none. The reception was held on a schooner going out from Paphos harbour. That was very expensive for what they actually provided, but we had some wonderful photos taken there too. I will let you see one when they are available. As Sarah and Michael had to return home the day after the wedding, hubby and I are having the kids for a week next year, so they can have a 'honeymoon' in Paphos to celebrate their first anniversary.

Thanks  Bonnie:)

I wore a hat for our eldest son's wedding a few years ago, and it looked awful on the photos. I think fascinators suit me much more.

Great pictures! What a lovely idea to have this on Cyprus. And how nice to be able to put a face to a name.

What a great wedding and what a great place to have a wedding. Did you get sunburned??? I suspect that hats are now back in fashion and they look good. You looked very nice and I would be willing to bet at least one person said "but you don't look sick".

I am so glad that you got to be there and enjoy the event plus get to hang out with all those people. Irish ;D

Kathy,

We'll look forward to seeing more wedding pics.  I'm so glad the staff did such a wonderful job helping make the day so special.

Yes, since I saw Joe said twice he couldn't find you, I took the liberty of being more specific; hope you didn't mind.  ;)
We had a family member take the pictures at our daughter's outdoor wedding in the fall of 2009.  We were so impressed how well she did!  Both of us will have some beautiful family pics to remember and share over the years.
Glad you had a wonderful time!  :D

Irish

I normally burn quite badly, so generally have the long sleeve cotton tops, mid calf trousers and sun hat. However, on the wedding day, although I used my pashmina when in direct sun, I was uncovered for a while. However, I was covered in factor 50 sunblock, and thankfully didn't burn.

Nobody said, but you don't look sick, but I did take things as easy as I could, and spent a lot of time at the reception just sitting and observing. The strength came from somewhere that day, for which I'm truly thankful. We arrived home on Sunday and I did very little until Thursday, as I was shattered. Then Friday I was back at work.

It was a pleasure to share the photos. I'm hoping to have some from the reception soon, to share with you.

Have a fab weekend everyone.
