Hmmmm……stunning out­door loca­tions to get married

That’s prob­a­bly where rain isn’t a good idea, right? Just a hunch?!??

So after a sum­mer of sun, blaz­ing hot days, bare­ly a cloud in the sky and hard­ly a drop of rain, black clouds on the BBC weath­er app isn’t what you want to see when you’re plan­ning on get­ting mar­ried out­side, on the lawn, high above the Riv­er Wye 🙁

When I spoke to Nik­ki in the mid­dle of the week it was a case of wait and see, but ‘hope­ful­ly we’ll be outside’.

Time to keep every­thing crossed I think

Now the prob­lem with weath­er, and weath­er fore­casts, is that it changes. So day by day the fore­cast kept chang­ing, some­times for the bet­ter, some­times for the worse. Grrrrrr

The day of the wed­ding it was look­ing promis­ing, but still a bit dodgy. So when I arrived at the venue and found Nik­ki she told me that the deci­sion had been made — inside.

Not what they’d planned but deci­sion made, time to enjoy the pros­ec­co and fin­ish get­ting ready for the wedding

But wait a minute, whilst Nik­ki was clos­et­ed away in an old sta­ble block, not real­ly able to keep an eye on the clouds, Dewi had no such restric­tions. So when he arrived with the boys he was able to bypass the BBC app and look across the val­ley and what did he see? BLUE SKY

With the use of some inter­me­di­aries to review the inside/outside debate we were back to Plan A — out­side — hap­py dance — they were going to get the out­door cer­e­mo­ny they wanted!!!

You’re prob­a­bly won­der­ing if the weath­er gods were kind to Nik­ki & Dewi?

Errr sort of!!

Some sun, some rain show­ers, but rather con­ve­nient­ly the worse of the rain fell dur­ing the wed­ding break­fast when every­one was under cov­er — anoth­er hap­py dance!!

What was the tat­too revelation?!

Well, all I’ll say about that is that the Best man revealed in his speech the he and the Groom have ‘com­pli­men­ta­ry’ ink­ings in a region that does­n’t often see the light of day!!

I’d love to know what you think of the blog so please leave a com­ment below or if you’d like to dis­cuss your wed­ding then please get in touch!!
