Looking at Craig and Nic striding out purposefully by Broxmouth Park’s lovely loch, you’d never guess that this was the email Craig sent just two days before the ceremony.

Wedding team,

We have something of a problem, though not an insurmountable one.

I have had back trouble for some time now, culminating in surgery last Friday. Whilst I was assured by all and sundry that I would be fighting fit in time for the wedding, it now appears that recovery is taking a little longer than had been hoped…

So yes, on the day, Craig was sitting, rather than standing, but it didn’t detract one little bit from what was a very moving and thoroughly entertaining wedding. Both bride and groom had five supporters by their side, and their friends Scott and Ron treated us to a fabulous rendition of Ed
Sheeran’s ‘Thinking out Loud’ as we paused for a moment of quiet contemplation before the vows. 

They sent me this great card, that says (among other things), “Nic and I always wanted to have a personal, intimate wedding service, and you really did make the whole process of delivering that seem effortless”.

I’m glad to see you back on your feet Craig. Thanks for the card and the kind words, and I wish you and Nic every happiness for the future!
