My Grandfather used to say that there was "No Rest for the Wicked - and Precious little for the Righteous". Those that know me can wonder about which category I fit into - nevertheless I don't think my feet have touched the ground since my last post.
Back in an alternate Timeline (AKA - 2019) we were planning a Wedding. Everything was falling into place nicely.
Big ticket items were being Crossed off the List.
Mother of the Bride,
Airfares and Accommodation - Tick
Wedding Dress - Tick
Florist, Photographer - Tick Tick
Celebrant - BIG Tick
and then the one thing that would really muck EVERYTHING up
- A Global Pandemic.
Back to Square ONE.
But Closing Our International Borders means the Bride's Mother and Friends can't come.
We have watched restrictions bounce over the last 6 months from
NO Weddings Permitted at all,
through "Just the Minimum Five",
to Ten allowed - including the Celebrant.
We wait and Pray
for Just a Little more wriggle room...

25th October UPDATE:
We can now plan for "Celebrant, Photographer, Couple
and "No more than 10 Guests."
That JUST scrapes in the immediate Family,
2 Friends and a Bridesmaid.
A new Wedding Venue has been booked and we are almost back on track.
Almost - there are a few other Issues we have had to deal with but I will cover those in another Post!
It's hard, isn't it? If nothing else, it will be a wedding to remember!
