They're Hitched!
So it finally happened on Saturday; after seven years together Chuck and Debbie celebrated their commitment to each other by tying the knot. Well, there wasn’t any real knots tied – it must be some kind of figurative thing.

After having some questionable weather since I’ve been here, Hawkes Bay played ball that day, by putting on a pearler of a day – not a cloud in the sky. Luckily for us suit-wearing guys, a bit of a breeze blew across the Ngatawara winery, which was the setting for the ceremony. I was lucky enough to be able to help out as being a driver, so brought the xy chromosome side of the bridal party to the winery. An extra special part of the day is when Chuck sung and five other musos played a Dave Matthews Band song Crash Into Me while the stunning bride and bridesmaids made their way up the isle. It sounded pretty sweet.

After a short ceremony (no religious stuff here) we all shared a toast to the bride and groom and socialised in the shade of some trees for a bit. After a couple of hours of photos, I brought Mr & Mrs Davey to the Cheval Rooms at the Hawkes Bay Racecourse for the reception. The speeches, which are always a favourite part for me, were hilarious. Moo. After that a nice buffet dinner was served, before Chuck took centre stage again to play four rock songs with Ian and Malcolm. As much as I’m sure they wanted to stay up there, they had to let the paid band get on with their job of belting out some good tunes for us all to dance to for the rest of the night.

The Ceremony Band
All in all it was the great night we were all expecting and I’m really happy I made the trip home to be there. I hope you have a nice relaxing time in Nelson on your honeymoon and enjoy each other as husband and wife for the rest of your lives…
