The day after Boxing Day Bernie and Sonya and friends prepared the garden for the wedding on the next day. First though all the ladies had a breakfast and spa at the Peninsula Hot Springs, it was a relaxing and luxurious experience. The men looked after the children. In the afternoon the men played golf while the ladies minded the kids. By evening the garden had been transformed into a wedding venue. Two Marque tents were in place, lights decorated the trees, and the shed had been converted into a stage for the band. This was going to be a relaxed, casual wedding with lots of friends and family. Just one big party!
Sonya and Bernie hired a cottage where we were staying at Hiltonia Homestead B&B. Sonya came and joined us the evening before the wedding while Bernie stayed with his parents and looked after Fox.
So the next day Sonya got ready for the wedding in her cottage.
Sonya has many friends with a variety of talents. Remi is a hairdresser and came to the cottage to do her hair.
She's happy with it. We love it.
Sonya's friend, since they were babies, Jo, came to do her makeup. They were outside on the balcony.The weather was warm and sunny.
She is enjoying this day and it brings tears to my eyes to see her so happy.
Big sister, Carol-Ann helps her get dressed. "Let's do the shoes now."
"Is the bow sitting right?"
"Is that O.K.?" ("Oops my boobs have disappeared since Fox has finished with them.)
"I'm ready!...Let's Go!"
