Happy Anniversary!











A selection of photos from our wonderful day.

Today is our 2nd wedding anniversary and it has been a really good two years! We got married at All Saints Church and had our reception at the Albrighton Hall hotel. The wedding was quite a large one, but we both have fairly large families. The day before our wedding we had torrential rain and Shrewsbury flooded. It usually takes Steph 10-15 minutes to get to her dads house from ours in the car, but the night before took her about an hour as all the roads in were flooded. She had to risk it and ended up driving through a severely flooded road, but she made it.
The next day though, the rain had gone, luckily! But the roads were still flooded and made Steph and her dad 30 minutes late for the church, which made Andy a little nervous! They got a message through and Andy was able to relax a little.
The church service was wonderful, filled with our family and friends. During the signing of the register, the choir sang Chasing Cars by Snow Patrol, which was fantastic.
We were a little rushed when we arrived for the reception because we were behind with the timing a little, so were uber organised getting the photos done. The photographer asked Steph to climb on a tree trunk, she was up there like a shot, we didn't want to keep our guests waiting and wanted to get on with the party!
There were no real hitches except that the cake collapsed! The cake maker had iced the cake warm, and therefore it sunk. We weren't that bothered because if that's the only thing to go wrong, then we felt very lucky.
We had a fantastic DJ who got the party really going. Spike and Chewy were present at the reception, which the kids absolutely loved.
If we could do the day again, we wouldn't change a thing, it was a brilliant day made special by the people there.
