April weddings are wonderful !

This beautiful wedding is that of my adorable sister in law, Chrissy, to the love of her life, Pat. A very happy, joyous day this April. Below is us, all dudded up for the occasion - this dress is one of my creations too - inspired by a beautiful 1960's English car I saw driving through the hills around King Lake one day...it was this colour and I had visions of a 1960's style dress with complimentary 'chrome' jewelry ! Vah-room !!!!
