Victoria and Martin Dorton House (Ashfold School) The Oxfordshire Golf Course and Hotel 20/08/11

Victoria and Martin were married on Saturday 20th of August at Dorton House in Aylesbury. Dorton House is built on land which was once the hunting grounds of Saxon and Norman kings. It's an amazing red brick building with Tudor chimneys and mullioned windows. During term time it's a prep school, but during the summer it becomes a fabulous venue for weddings. Martin and Victoria welcomed their guests on Friday night in The Thatcher in Thame and said farewell on Sunday morning. It was a long and very enjoyable wedding party!!! The couple's friends and family travelled down from Scotland and out from London. Ross Gilder, the best man, did a superb job of the speech and gave us an interesting moment when he and the ushers, Andy Strangeways and Stevie Smith, left all the wedding extras in their taxi, which had driven off into the sunset. Victoria's sister Jessica, and the girls looked beautiful and supported Victoria throughout the weekend. Thank yous to Vinnie as Toast Master who did a superb job, Jamie and the staff at Dorton House, the staff at the Oxfordshire Golf Club and Hotel, especially the breakfast staff for lending me a waistcoat. And a big thank you to Martin and Victoria for asking us to join their day. It really was a fantastic weekend.
