The 2011 wedding season is now well and truly under way for Heritage Classic Cars. Both Austins set out on Saturday afternoon for the first wedding assignment of the year. It was a gorgeous day; despite some dubious weather forecasts earlier in the week. The sky was blue and the sun shone brightly. I jokingly told the father of the bride that it was all part of the service but, looking back, we do seem to get more than our fair share of fine days for our weddings. Is that tempting fate?
Everything went smoothly; we arrived at the Church a few minutes early, photographs were duly taken and we headed off to the reception. I had almost forgotten what fun it is to drive the old car.
One nice touch was the photographer stopping us on the way to the reception for some extra photographs. She had spotted a bluebell wood beside the road and thought it would be good to take some shots of the bride and groom standing amongst the flowers. I thought it was great that she was thinking about her clients and looking for that special picture with a wow factor rather than just going through the motions. I hope they get some stunning photos.
We safely delivered everyone to the reception and finally headed back to base. An enjoyable day.
