9th January 2010

So I blogged about the High Tea hen's afternoon, I guess it's only fair that I blog about the main event!

Lyd and I caught abus from Hobart to the stop closest to the ceremony site (which took about 45 mins) and then walked quite some distance (love the iPhone and it's GPS or we may never have made it!) across the park. The ceremony was held outside, the weather was a perfect mid-twenties, and no real breeze right by the waters edge. The bride and her bridesmaids arrived in style, making waves as they did, much to the delight of the guests!

 

The boys could have been mistaken for an up and comming boy band with their stylish sunnies, and the girls made the long walk from the jetty to the ailse under gorgeous parasols. The flower girl and page boy were very well behaved, as the sun set on a lovely afternoon.

Congratulations (belated I know) to Mr & Mrs McInnes!

High Tea Hens Day

So in January (I realise this happened before Ben's brithday, but we'll ignore the chronological hiccup and tell the story anyway!) Lydia and I travelled over to Tassie to spend the weekend and be part of a beautiful wedding. On the Friday afternoon, all the ladies headed out in their finest vintage or opshop out fit and headed to a gorgeous historical hotel in Hobart for a high tea.

We spent the afternoon drinking tea and coffee, eating sandwiches and cakes, all in the company of some wonderful women. Recipes were written out for the bride to be, a collection of her friends favourite dishes, a very fitting present for the new bride. There were photos taken and memories made, all in an afternoon of great indulgance. A couple of happy snaps from the day...
