So Catherine & Dave were to be married on the Gold Coast at Burleigh Beach. Very nice yes, & we arrived to see a busy Dave & some trusty family members holding a spot in the very public park for their ceremony.
And so begins the adventures.. Todd: “So Dave, introduce us to your Groomsmen.” Dave: “Ahh, well, one is driving around the Gold Coast looking for his suit trousers – he’s lost them, another is flying in from the U.K. & he has phoned to advise that his plane has just landed in Brisbane!” Todd: “Say Dave, aren’t you getting married in 2 hours?” Dave: *smiles* “I hope so, but Taco’s here – 1 out of 3 ain’t bad…” Todd: “Hey Taco, pleased to meet you”. Taco: “Likewise.” *smiles all round as Taco & Todd shake hands*..
So amidst the Kaos (yes with a ‘K’ – that’s how I roll), I was bracing myself for some very stressful situations – perhaps some tears, mild breakdowns, some silent treatment, & stamping of feet. But no. None of this. It was obvious that C&D had not planned for this to happen, but their collective response was to adjust, adapt, laugh about the craziness surrounding them & move on. It was soooo refreshing to see.
Of course, the day was spectacular – great weather, great atmosphere, awesome people, the beach, bikini babes, bare foot bowls, lots of laughs.. Another great day at the ‘office’ for us.
I am also pleased to report that the suit trousers were eventually found (in the bottom of the suit bag), & mr U.K. actually made it to the ceremony on time (just).
Dave puts his jacket on inside-out.. (yes, he was a little nervous) ;)
C & D's close friend provided music for their ceremony, including an awesome cover of Billy Idol's "White Wedding".
this is Ghostrider requesting a skate-by.. negative Ghostrider, the pattern is full..
