SIMON AND MARY'S WEDDING -
Simon and Mary were married on Sunday, September 3, 2006, at Newland Hall, Roxwell. Almost 100 guests attended the civil ceremony and the excellent reception that followed. Quite a few of Mary's relatives travelled over from Ireland and a good time was had by all . . . including a few jigs!! (and jugs!!). The happy couple set off on the Monday for a honeymoon in South Africa and Mauritius. They now reside in Epping and in 2011 moved from Charles Street to St John's Road.
OUR GOLDEN WEDDING -
We celebrated our Golden Wedding at the Blue Bridge Restaurant at Writtle on June 13, 2009. It was a lovely surprise treat for us provided by Simon and Mary and we had no idea where it was going to be and it was a thoroughly enjoyable day for us with all the family. The meal was fantastic and to see what we actually enjoyed on the day see the menu in our photo album.
