Bill and Michelle's wedding, originally uploaded by JackRyder.

Yesterday [livejournal.com profile] murasaki_1966 and I were fortunate enough to attend the wedding of Bill Congreve and Michelle Marquardt.

Without a doubt (discounting my own) it was the loveliest wedding I'd been to. Both bride and groom were radiant.

The wedding was performed at St Bonaventure's Church, Leura, by Father Bob (a Father Bob, not the Father Bob) and for a religious service, did not get up the nose of the assembled atheists and agnostics too much (due to some judicious pruning by Bill and Michelle when planning the ceremony.)

The reception was back at their place (and I'm sure [livejournal.com profile] catsparx will have her photos up soon) and a grand time was had by all.

Though as [livejournal.com profile] ashamel pointed out, one meteor strike would have taken out most of the Australian fantastic writing community as Rob Hood was best man, [livejournal.com profile] kylaw, [livejournal.com profile] ladnews, Simon Brown, Chuck McKenzie and Terry Dowling were also in attendance.

There was also an impromptu ceremony conferring 2/3rds of Edwina Grey with her justly won Aurealis Award.

Congratulations Bill and Michelle, once again!

Today [profile] ferkster  and I completed and submitted our first full-length play - "Gone Bush".

So now, we wait for notes from the producer and director, incorporate them and find out when the whole thing moves into production.

Whew, what a weekend! (what with Bill and Michelle's wedding and everything!)

(and a great deal of thanks to [profile] ferkster for pulling all the drafts together and cutting out two characters so the whole thing finally worked.)
