Today is our 31st wedding anniversary. We might delay our celebrations as the weather is looking a little wild.
Whenever I think of our wedding day, I hear the girls saying, "Oh those awful knickerbocker suits." I thought they looked lovely and I anticipated that the suits would come in very handy for future wear. Although they didn't complain at the time, they have a lot to say now!! I rather think that the main problem was that knickerbockers were new and expected to become very popular but it didn't happen! Dom was happy with his clothes but no one noticed what he wore because he was on crutches from a football injury.
It was a casual, relaxed wedding and everyone had a good time. We wrote our own vows and kept formalities to a minimum. I made a Madeira cake because Steve didn't like fruit cake at that time. I dried jasmine flowers and painted them pink and blue, for decoration.
My dress was floor length and all the colours of a rainbow; it looked as though it had been painted.
How the years have flown since that wonderful day.
