Fran & Alan's wedding

Had a terrific weekend in the Lake District to celebrate Fran & Alan's wedding. Drove up on Friday to a hotel on the shores of Windermere (between Bowness and Ambleside). Our room was one the the nicest I've ever stayed in - very luxurious with stunning views.

Friday night there was a hot buffet and we spent the evening in the hotel's various bars with K's workmates.

Saturday dawned foggy and we were all concerned as the afternoon featured a boat trip on the lake but the fog soon cleared and it turned into a beautiful, crisp spring day.

The wedding ceremony was staged in the hotel's galleried hall, with the bride and groom on a landing halfway up an oak-panelled staircase. After the ceremony, it was onto a pleasure boat for pink champagne and trip along the lake before returning to the hotel for the wedding breakfast. Everything went so well and I think the happy couple had a fantastic day - I know we did!
