A Locally Sourced Holy Island Wedding on a Special Date

Sarah and Alan chose to marry on the second of the second of twenty twenty or 2/2/2020, a special date, a Sunday wedding, and in a very special location, Lindisfarne Castle on Holy Island.

It was lovely to hear Margaret and Andy Watchhorn, The Northumberland Pipers, again. In fact, everything to do with the wedding was local or locally sourced: the beautiful flowers were from Buds at Berwick; the drinks and cake were all made on the island; the wedding cake was by the amazing Pilgrims Cafe; and, obviously, Lindisfarne Mead had to be consumed!

The view from the Upper Battery is pretty spectacular on any day and from any direction (I’m not saying it won’t be cold or windy though)!

After the ceremony and a few family group shots, the Glen Valley minibus took the guests to the Bothy Bar at Barn at Beal for an entertaining afternoon reception.
