The day could not have been better... Luke Joe and Zeb rode up as ring bearers in front of Craig who was on CM Burnt In Gold, Shell rode up on Reisling, and her dad Ben gave her away from the back of Shells 27 yr old pony Jojo... Shell has always wanted Jojo in her wedding, and got her wish! The weather was perfect, slightly overcast and a slight breeze... brilliant! Everyone who was there said they loved it as it was unusual... The celebrant, Les Spinks had never married two people who were on horseback before....The horses behaved themselves wonderfully, and we were able to exchange rings and the kiss on them ... we were a little uncertain as to how it would go with a crowd watching them! |

Being married at 11am actually meant we had the whole day ahead of us... We had a wonderful day which shall remain in our memories forever! Raelene and Ben, Shells parents, came over from Whyalla in South Australia, as did Margaret and Les Hosking and their boys, and Cindy Venning... Wendy Clark and her husband Nobby and their boys also came from Gawler in SA... Craigs mum Lyn and soon to be step father Ken came up from Newcastle, as did Craigs brother Scott and his fiance Aleasha... Other friends travelled up from Newcastle, Sydney, Scone, and surrounding areas... We had a wonderful bucnh of friends and family there... It was always inteneded to be a small affair there, and a reception over at Whyalla on the 22nd of March... The backdrop of the Wollemi National Park and the mountains was gorgeous, and our backyard!
Les Hosking provided a lot of fun for the kids with the Whip Cracking lessons after the BBQ....Not just the little kids either!!!
Without his and Margarets help with the saddling up and dealing with the horses it would hav been a very stressful day!!
We would love to publicly thank everyone involved... we are blessed to have such wonderful families and friends.... We love you all very much!!!
I love that our horses were a huge part of our wedding, Craigs Warmblood/ASH gelding and my Cleveland Bay Sporthorse mare, and my old pony.... |
