Happy 1st Anniversary to Daddy and Mama G

On the 28th November 2009, Daddy and I got married in Melbourne before we headed to London to get married again and celebrate with all the family there.

Here's what happened...

We headed to town to get married at the registry office and invited our close friends Dev & Kavi, Bex & Steve, Frans & Fleur, Luke and of course Abuelita and Tata.  The ceremony was beautiful and Daddy and I were very emotional, we couldn't believe we were getting married!

After the ceremony we all headed to a pub nearby to have a couple of champagnes before going to have a lovely lunch at Breezers restaurant at Crown Casino. We had a great afternoon, lots of eating and drinking and then we went to the Limerick in Middle Park in the evening where Daddy and I hosted a bit of function so that all of our other friends could come and celebrate with us.  We hired the function room at the Limerick and we had all of our friends come over and share a drink (or two) with us.  The whole day and night was just so relaxed, and just perfect for us.

Then on the 20th of December we had another beautiful ceremony in front of all our family and friends in England, plus Abuelita, Tata, uncle Diego and Danny, Dev, aunty Jo Jo and also your aunties from El Salvador Ethel and Claudia.  We re- married at a place called Ufton Court which is just outside Reading and then had the reception in a barn that was attached to the venue and danced the night away with lots of wine and tequila! It was such a beautiful day...it had snowed the day before so on the day the snow had settled in and it was a bright sunny day...a truly winter wonderland! and the venue was just magical, being so close to Christmas there was a big Christmas tree in the barn and the place was just magical. We were so blessed to have been able to have a wonderful second wedding in England and again we danced the night away!

So.... on our first anniversary we bought a bottle of champagne, a packet of crisps and we watched the wedding and honey moon video. We laughed and cried again and spoke about the fact that we can't wait to share our beautiful day (the one in England) with our children one day!
