Great Wymondley Village Royal Wedding Party
An amazing day was had by all at our village Royal Wedding Party
We watched the wedding on a huge screen in the church and on the green. There was a glass of sparkling wine straight after the wedding followed by delicious hog roast and salads. The women of Wymondley (WOW!) created an amazing spread of regal cupcakes and a centre piece wedding cake with a hand knitted Kate and William to decorate it.
We had the pleasure of listening and dancing to a fab local folk band Tam lin.
The after dinner entertainment came in the form of kids treasure hunt, wacky races (egg and spoon, sack race, water obstacles, 3 legged etc) and finally we played a royal game of wheelbarrow polo!
Some of the men of the village also were daft enough to attempt the yard of ale contest!!!
A fantastic day. Thanks to everyone who was part of it in anyway what so ever. Without having a village full of people willing to get involved we would never of had such an amazing day
