Paul and Lucinda had their wedding at the stunning Warbrook House, near Hook in Hampshire.
The boys looked fantastic in their top hats and tails.
Lucinda's dress was amazing...
...and her hair was perfect.
After their ceremony, Warbrook staff drove Paul and Lucinda to the other end of the pond for some portraits and were kind enough to present them with glasses of champagne and a little food box with scrummy canapés ...
...at which point a black and white cat appeared...and purred and begged and meowed until he got fed...we rather fancied he might have done this before..."ooooh good, a white dress and that can only mean one thing...foooood! (purrrrr)"
After portraits it was then back to the lawn...for croquet...
...and giant Jenga.
Then it was indoors for a fabulous meal and much laughter during the speeches.
After perfect wedding weather all day, there was a gorgeous evening sky...
...and just time enough for a few more portraits on the lawn...
...and a few more on the staircase against the magnificent Warbrook House decor.
Paul and Lucinda cut their wedding cake on the dance floor...
...and were then invited to sit down whilst MC Alan Marshall read out something special about each of them which was both hilarious and, at moments,...very touching.
Then it was time for their First Dance as man and wife. They delighted their guests with a very entertaining and, at times, comic dance routine.
Paul and Lucinda are a lovely couple and at their wedding they had wonderful guests, perfect weather, an amazing venue...but more than that they had love and laughter...and a very grateful black and white hotel cat.
