Amelia got ready for her marriage at a hotel adjacent the Church of St Eata’s overlooking the River Severn.

She and her father together with the bridal party walked past bunting…

…to the nearby church.

Amelia and Paul walked down past the river to their reception…

…which was held at The Mytton and Mermaid Hotel. They chose a ‘village fete’ theme…

…and country flowers…

ww

…a vintage tea party…

…lots of bunting and a coconut shy…

…plus ‘splat the rat’, ‘goldfish’ prizes…

…a closely fought ‘count the sweets in the jar’ competition, and hoopla…

Dinner was held inside the hotel…

…and thoroughly enjoyed.

One table elected to eat pudding without cutlery – rather elegantly…

Afterwards a ‘knobbly knees’ competition was held…

…amid accusations of cosmetic enhancement.

Prizes were awarded…

and goldfish ‘shots’ enjoyed…

…before the serious business began…
