Family Wedding

[Warrigal]

On Saturday my second grand daughter was married to her sweetheart. He has just finished his apprenticeship as an automotive mechanic and she has a degree in Hospitality, Hotel Management. They seem very well suited and both families have similar values. My daughter and the grooms mum get on famously.

The wedding took place in the foothills of the Blue Mountains to the NW of Sydney. The venue was an early land grant for food production and has long been an orchard. Today it is a function centre where you can stay overnight, which we did.

These are a few of the photos that have been shared on Facebook.

Love the lizard. Also love the tropical foliage. I really hope to visit Oz some day.

Most of that foliage is introduced species. The foothills to the Blue Mountains have rich alluvial soils and became the food gardens of the early colony. The early colonists imported not only food plants, they also brought their favourite trees and flowers from England. The blend of native vegetation and northern hemisphere plants is quite attractive and does help to protect buildings from bushfires.

Thank you for sharing the beautiful photos! I enjoyed looking at all of them. Your granddaughters are pretty girls. Did you or your husband cry during the ceremony? My husband did at our son's last month and I think next month at our grandson's both of us will. Oh, and I loved that wedding dress! And that wedding cake topper with the bride sitting on the edge of the cake top.
