We had a bit of a lazy morning but we did walk to the little shopping centre next door and looked in the op shop. We got ready and Kim and Karen came here and picked us up and off we went to The Boathouse. We were a bit early so we had a drink while waiting and then just before 1pm we were put on to a little ferry and took a 40 minute ride up the river. It was a very nice ride and nibblies and drinks were in abundance. When we stopped we had a short walk to where the ceremony was to be held, just off the beach under the trees. It was so pretty and Tarran and Karen looked absolutely gorgeous. The Celebrant was so cool and her name was Gaye Lemon....lol....and that was really her birth name....she said her mother must have had a sense of humour and said no wonder she is gay. The weather was also perfect although it was really hot in the sun and one of the guests collapsed which was not good. After the ceremony it was back to the ferry for an hour ride back to The Boathouse and more drinks were had. The reception was on the top level of the building which goes out over the water and the view was beautiful. It was very casual with lots of lovely finger foods and lots of great company. It was also great to catch up with some friends we haven't seen for a while. A few speeches were done which were really nice and I think there were a few tears shed around the room. We left about 10.30pm and got a cab home. I have to say it was one of the nicest ceremonies I have been to and we were really glad we were able to make it.
Night xo
