Our Wedding: The two of us with a very young Ben, he is now taller than both of us!

Married on the 1st March 1997 at Mount Little Higginbotham which is near Mount Hotham in North Eastern Victoria, Australia. We both love the mountains, so we decided to get married up in the mountains. It took a lot of looking to find the right spot. The spot which we chose looked down over a huge valley with a mountain on the other side. The joke was that if one of the guests was against the marriage they could have just pushed one of us over the side of the mountain and down into the valley below. We were married under a Snow Gum Tree. We were married by the church minister who was my church minister when I was a teenager and she just as luck would have it, happened to be living in Mount Beauty at the time, which is a town situated below Mount Hotham and she was happy to make the trip up the mountain to marry us. Given we were getting married in the mountains we decided to wear clothes associated with the Mountain Cattlemen. So R.M. Williams moleskins, shirts and boots were the order of the day. The weather was perfect, a mild 20C which is excellent weather for the mountains at that time of the year. We were very lucky because according to the relatives who stayed up on the mountain, the next day the mountain was completely fogged in.
