Dancing to the Beat of a Wedding Typewriter

The Typewriter Gods most definitely smiled on us on our wedding day. The entire event was bathed in brilliant sunshine, and everything went off without a single hitch - including the performance of the Wedding Typewriter. Four months of thorough planning - with a lot of help from our friends - ensured it was an unforgettably joyous occasion. Every one of the 100 or so guests commented on what an incredibly wonderful day it was - filled with love, song, dance and fun. The (other) old folks wished us well, and the young folks said, "When we get married, this is the sort of wedding we want!"

    Congratulations! Long life to you both! (Some lousy typists among your guests, though. :))
