Timing was everything..................and timing was perfect. One cold front passed with rain and clouds, and the next one did not arrive until two days after the wedding........ Now that takes some doing............Thus a truly beautiful wedding in full sunshine was held on Saturday afternoon, March 27, 2010, on the ocean side of Elbow Cay in the Bahamas to wed Lauren Anne Reynolds and Tony Alton Shiver, Jr.............. Now, after probably 4000 photos were taken by the guests, it is difficult to choose the appropriate ones for this blogsite.............. But here is a sample............ All the guests stayed at the Hope Town Harbour Lodge in rooms and bungalows with grandiose views and spectacular sunrises. Without even asking for it, Her Highness and I were accommodated in the "Queen's Quarters"................ Word has obviously gotten around.... But this weekend belonged entirely to the Bride and Groom. We congratulate them on this wonderful decision to be united in love and friendship, in joy and harmony, in mind and in body......................to share and to cherish the future together.
Some photos were taken before the wedding, and some after, so you need to suss that out. We even took a boat ride to Nipper's Beach Bar on Guana Cay, where we discovered the secret hideaway for their "Rum Punch" that sneaks up on you without warning......... with severe consequences.
And it would be hard to find a more exotic setting for a wedding. Even this palm tree sent out its orange shoots for the occassion, and this frog who had been hiding in the bushes made his appearance. There was a rumour that he always appears at weddings and that he really is a "Prince" in disguise, but none of the single fair ladies in attendance took the slightest notice of him and as far as we know........ nobody kissed him......................... To find out the 'truth' of the rumour.
