Today I gave away our daughter. To Ian Steele. Who married her at County Hall, Chichester.
This was a splendid summer’s day, fit for such an occasion. The small family group at the ceremony was supplemented by other friends who joined us for refreshments at Mill Stream Hotel, Bosham. We were welcomed with champagne, further glasses of which were later provided as we toasted the bride and groom after Ian’s eloquent speech. Plentiful sandwiches, sausage rolls, and various canapés were served in the dining room. After this we sat in the garden with drinks for more convivial conversation.
The opening two shots feature Becky unsuccessfully attempting to fasten a buttonhole on her groom’s jacket. It was the couple’s friend Miche who took all the photographs in which I feature, and those during the ceremony; and friend John who dragged me outside to photograph Mr and Mrs Steele on the bridge over the stream.
Lovely!
Thanks very much, Lindsey
Congratulations to the happy couple. It looks a fabulous family event.
It was, indeed, Gwen. Many thanks
How lovely! It looks a most happy occasion – except for the recalcitrant buttonhole affair 🙂 Your three photos of the happy couple on the bridge are just beautiful – but the one that grabbed my attention the most is the one you have simply entitled ‘Hands’. It is Jackie and Becky and all the love and bond between mother and daughter is there in how that touch manifests. It made me quite well up! Congratulations to everyone.
Very many thanks, Pauline. I’m so pleased you got that one.
Oh, lovely, Pauline – I loved that photo, too – but couldn’t say it like you did. Perfect.
🙂
Congratulations to Mr. and Mrs. Steele!
Thanks very much, Lavinia
Oh, congrats, congrats to your daughter and her husband! Still summer in England? So lucky!
Not so good today, Laurie. We were lucky. Thanks very much
What a lovely day! Congratulations to the newlyweds.
Many thanks, Leslie. I used the joke. Becky got it immediately 🙂
All the pictures convey plenty of joy, on such a glorious sunny day, may they be blessed with health and happiness

Many thanks, Inese
Congrats to them. It seems to have been a lovely wedding.
In South Africa the Zulus etc attach greater value to their daughters. They don’t give them away; they sell them! Just think how many cattle you could have got for her!
🙂 Thanks a lot, Leslie
You have some excellent photos, Derrick – they tell the tale of a lovely day. Becky and Ian are adorable together, as are her parents.
Very many thanks, Jodie
May the bond of love be strengthened at all times. Keep the faith and trust with one another.
