Our Civil Wedding (16 December 2005)

We had many things to do before the wedding. There were some beaurocratic procedures to go through. And then of course John had to buy a new suit, shirt, shoes and belt (and get a haircut). Lorena is here in her new dress with a natural bouquet. We are ready to be married.



The ceremony was performed at the council offices of La Molina in Lima, Peru. There were two details of note. The celebrant spoke in a booming voice (evidence on the DVD) and secondly the backdrop to the ceremony was dominated by a huge painting. "The battle of Angamos 8th of October 1879" (Hardly romantic). However the ceremony went very well.

So here we are in 1879!

And now, a "just married" couple, and very happy to be spending our lives together.
