...and Mom's pretty cute too!
Just to reinforce that Lily's good looks are not from the Hodgson side of the family (as if I need to!!), here are a couple of snaps of our wedding. This one is at the reception where Marcela patiently listened to my jokes (good practice for the years ahead).

We had the most amazing (and non-traditional) chocolate cake, provided by the restaurant where we'd booked out the top floor. They're great - special thanks to Annelie who runs a tight ship - and we can recommend them to anyone looking for a place to eat in Norwich. Tatler's restaurant.

A 1936 Rolls Royce took us to the registry office in Norwich - thereby taking away attention from the somewhat antique nature of the groom ha ha.
All in all a great day, and it was amazing to have friends and family there from the UK and South Africa.
My brother Kim was there too, not allowed a speaking part but given complete control of the flower arrangement which kept him out of mischief for hours....
