Evening Dress : Wedding Day

Wedding Day - April 25th, 2009

The 2nd most important and happiest day of our lives was April 25th, 2009 in Prague, our wedding day. The first was the day Sasha was born. Here we're driving to Louny for the reception.

Wedding Video, With Completely Inappropriate Music

Our videographer is Czech and didn't understand the words to the song he attached to this video.  The movie was meant as a quick message to mum.  My mother (77) was not well enough to travel from Victoria, Canada to Prague for the wedding, alas.

The End of Our Pre-Honeymoon

We went to Venice as our 'pre-honeymoon' before going to Prague to get married. Here we're in the water taxi, headed back to the Venice airport just after dawn.

The Proposal

Marc lured Irena out across the Charles Bridge.  She was expecting to meet me for breakfast at our usual spot.  As they crossed the bridge they encountered a pitiful beggar prostrated and freezing, covered by a blue blanket.  Marc persuaded Irena to give the begger some money.  But it wasn't really a beggar...

Unfortunately my prepared speech fell apart as soon as I saw the tears in Irena's eyes, I asked, she managed a yes, and we both turned into a bubbly schmooshy mess.  Afterwards we went to Allegro, the highest Zagat ranked restaurant in Prague.
