Flowers
The boys did the same at the hotel in Woolloomooloo
Rob rediscovered TV
Andrew dressed Dave
Rob the flowers – wrong lapel!
Some nerves were shared
But on arrival at the church the groomsmen figured they had done their job
… the delivery of the groom
The ladies came in with style

Tables
the crowd got down to dinner
… at both ends
Rainy court-yard
Bridal table
In the middle
Me and the sisters’ O’Brien ..
Ben was MC – and though himself hilarious – we couldn’t get him down
But he set the tone
The start of being paid out for about an hour …
Owen set the bar high with an excellent speech
Loved it!
Mum followed thru in great fashion
The crowd enthralled
Andrew promised a short speech and then rained down on me for what felt a long time
… but was pretty damn funny
We did our best to respond

Cake time
Time to cut the …… hey???
