Abingdon Surprise

An unusual one this week. Father of the Bride Sergey wanted to surprise his daughter with a special car to travel from the family home to St Nicolas' church in Abingdon. Instead of traveling in his BMW we drove Sergey and Daria to downtown Abingdon in our Silver Grey Jaguar MK2. The reception was a short walk away in the old County Hall but we waited for the ceremony so Daria and new husband Stuart could have photos with the car afterwards.

Despite three weddings this weekend it wasn't very good for photo opportunities. We did however get a nice snap of Imogen and Rory at the pond in Russells Water where CCBB was filmed. Imogen's father was a child extra in the film and the location of their reception, the Five Horse Shoes in Maidensgrove, was close by. They were married at Henley Register Office.
