Based on Latreia’s handling of a past Alpha Course as well as my friendship with the groom, I was asked to help with managing the necessary arrangements for the tea reception at Angela & Shern’s wedding held in church on the 19th Jul 2008. A number of us in the CG were invited to the much anticipated event. I know that the couple would have loved to invite everyone in the entire church but eventually budget and space constraints meant that they had to limit their invitations to family, relatives, close friends, colleagues and etc.

I never got to look at the actual wedding service and reception itself as I was pretty much busy with various things. The photos are available on my Picasaweb account but here’s a slide show containing some pics I took of the wedding.. from a helper’s perspective.

I originally posted this on my blog and dedicated it to someone dear in my life but I liked it so much, I thought I’d share it with the rest of you..

We walked down that aisle together.

We vowed to be together..

.. to have and to hold, from this day forward,

.. for better, for worse,

.. for richer, for poorer,

.. in sickness or in health,

.. to love and to cherish

.. ’till death do us part.

We laughed, we cried; And despite all we have gone through, I still find you by my side – my partner, my equal; my friend; my loved one.

From those of us who are loved to Those who love us…

What is Life Without Love?

by Simon McNamara

.

I fell in love with you once . . .
And while I couldn’t let you know immediately
Eventually, in time, all was revealed.
They say that when you fall into love,
It can never last.
They say that true love grows, takes time,
But from the time I first fell in love with you,
My love has grown.
I know now that if I had the choice
To do it all over again.
I would, without a moment’s hesitation.
Yes, there may be regrets.
Yes, there may be disappointments.
Yes, there may be uncertainty.
But what is life without love?

* * *

And while I know you’re not perfect -
After all, who is?
And while there may be things about you which get to me,
I love you, despite them all.
And while I’m sure there may be others,
Considered more beautiful, more lovely, more charming,
There are none considered by me.
For you, my love, are the most lovely in spirit,
The most charming in personality,
The most beautiful person I have ever known -
And as such, I love you.

* * *

I said I fell in love with you once -
Well, that wasn’t exactly true.
Because every time you look me in the eye,
And smile that smile of yours,
That bubbles up from within your heart,
I find myself falling in love with you all over again.
No matter what has happened in my day,
No matter how I feel,
I find my heart opening to you all over again
No matter what has happened in the past,
No matter what may, or may not happen in the future,
I find myself in love.
After all, what is life without love?
And what is love without you?
