Community boat crew help make couple’s perfect day
THE Peter Le Marchant Trust recently had the pleasure of being involved in a most wonderful day when, for the first time in the charity’s history, one of its boats transported a wedding party to their ceremony.
Departing from their Loughborough base, the crew picked up the bride Gillian en route and took the wedding party to the church at Normanton-on-Soar.
With added consideration to current Covidsafe measures, the team decked the boat out, helped arrange the catering and cakes and the crew dressed up in a traditional fashion. With excellent weather to boot, it really was the most memorable occasion!
Everyone was delighted to receive the following message after the wedding from the bride: “Thank you for making it so special. Perfect for travelling to church – the guests loved it, everyone was so excited, apparently people were running to see us. It was just amazing! Thank you!”
Everyone at the trust thanks the bride and bridegroom, Gillian and Joe, for letting us be part of their special day.
