On a chilly November Sunday, surrounded by the vintage wedding gowns of the women in her family, Hannah was “showered” with love and gifts to help furnish the new home she and Keith will share.

Guests were asked to wear something red (the wedding colour)  The ladies and a few chubby cheeked tots nibbled and sipped as they tried to guess the year of each of the vintage gowns and describe the perfect one for Hannah.

Her mom, her aunties (of which I am one) and a couple of her cousins were wiping tears as Hannah donned her grandmother’s gown at the end of the party.

Enjoy!
