I have a good friend who with her partner, has a very wide circle of aquaintances and between them they have been invited to six weddings this year.  The last one was only recently and by all accounts, was the humdinger of the lot.  It was held at the ancestral home of the groom witht he ceremony held in the family chapel – a dear little church within the family estate.    The wing of the big house, where the wedding was held had been completely redecorated and refubished in readiness for the big event.  Temporary sleeping quarters  had been formed in the old ballroom with access to toilet and shower facilities.  All this was carried out by a fantastic design company who specialise in developing a sports halls etc in emergency situations – such as flood rescues for communities.   A good use of a specialist talent for the nuptuals flooded with goodwill!
