A little surprise

My Mom arranged for a fun surprise for us when we left the church. Somehow (I still don't know how she organized it) she arranged for a chimney sweep to be waiting for us once we walked out of the church. Apparently in England it is good luck for a bride to see one on her wedding day.

I love the looks on our faces when we first saw him.





I think our guests got a kick out of seeing him, although a large proportion had no idea why he was there (even the younger British guests).



Silly me failed to 'air kiss' the chimney sweep. Luckily one of my bridesmaids was there to wipe off the soot from my face.
