Over in Cyprus Katie and Oscar got married today and it all seemed to go off very well indeed. It was 1.00pm our time over here (they're 2hous ahead). Lewis set up a WhatsApp group and we joined the call and he shared his screen - it wasn't ideal as they were a fraction out of ear-reach but we got the gist of what was happening.
You had me, Miles, Sue and Caroline (Danny's mum) and Wendy and Graham on the call and it was nice to feel involved, although there was that obvious feeling that we were missing out by not being there - but that was all of our own choices so can't complain about that!
The "service" was over in 20 minutes, the registrar wasn't messing about..I think it's very hot of course so she didn't want it dragging on.
About 2 hours later Lewis fired up the WhatsApp call again and we witnessed the speeches - this was a lot better to listen to as they used microphones and it went well. Everyone did sincere and nice/meaningful speeches which made sense and they all went down well of course.
That was it then and they went ahead with celebrating and drinking and food and so on, I kept getting messages throughout the evening which was nice, Tash said I was being missed so that was nice to hear.
So all in all, a very successful event - and now they're married. How strange that is to think these young neices are all "grown up"!
