It was a great day. We gathered our nearest and dearest at Pollock House for Jack’s naming ceremony, and then sprung a surprise wedding on them at the end. Hooray! Then we had cupcakes and doughnuts whilst people hugged us and thumped us for being so sneaky! HOOORAY!!
We’d both been married before, and weren’t wanting a ‘big thing’ so when we talked about a naming ceremony for Jack, we figured we might as well make our relationship legal —honestly, largely for paperwork reasons— and so we’d at least all have the same surname (Becca took mine, but I’d have taken hers too).
So it was that at the conclusion of the naming ceremony Gerrie, the humanist who had performed the ceremony, turned to Becca and I and said
“You know I have one more question for you both, seeing as how you are here, Dd you fancy to getting married?”.
I have it one video (I stuck my GoPro behind us looking out at the attendees) and I still watch it from time to time to see their shocked reactions!
It WAS a great day! And I can’t believe it was 4 years ago, what a lucky guy.
