The Nanny and her prince Charming

Sounds like a fairytale right?  All I can say is, if the tears are anything to go by, Christina really did marry her prince charming. 

I started the day bright and early, the sun beaming through the blue sky.  Cold, fresh air waking me up and getting me ready for the day ahead.  Arriving at the house I was led into a bright sun room where the girls were having their makeup done, excited but quiet, anticipating the day, the future, the rest of Christina's life. 

Guests were treated to some stunning music at the church, a quaint old country parish in Co. Wicklow.  I met Ann a few years back, believe it or not at the local swimming pool where our kids had lessons together.  She continues to impress me with her immense talent and really is the perfect addition for any wedding.  Christina walked down the aisle beaming, her eyes streaming tears of joy with Quentin completely mesmerised by her beauty.  They stepped forward together, as they would for the rest of their lives.



To me, Quentin and Christina fit, there is nothing seperate about them, they are one of those couples where I feel no matter what life throws at them they will stand together, as one. 




I pulled up at the hotel and had a brief chat with Martin, the videographer (www.myweddinginhd.ie) both of us amazed that we had made the 1 hour 40mn journey before any of the bridal party, when we saw a car pull up to the entrance.  Seeing the ribbon we assumed it was family so made our way to the door to await the arrival of our couple only to be shocked that in fact, Quentin had decided that he wanted to drive to the venue with Christina, spending some time alone, rather than travel in the wedding car.  It was a lovely idea and even though I had never come across it before I thought to myself, why not, on the one day of your lives where you completely give yourselves to one another, declare life long love, trust and devotion, why not take any opportunity to spend some time alone together.

Although surrounded by loving family and friends, I am sure both of you will find plenty of time in your lives to devote solely to one another and reflect on your journey, not just your trip from church to hotel but your whole journey from the very beginning, I wish for you that on those occasions you feel the happiness, warmth and closeness you felt on that one journey. 

All of my love to you both, Rachxxx
