Good luck tomorow Sam hope you enjoy the day.

All the best

All the best for the future to Sam and Nikki.

How the hell did you arrange to get married on a Saturday during the football season anyway? Do you not have a calendar young man?

I promise I wont embarrass you too much

 :naughty:

I'll provide independent feedback on that matter idc.....

lucks!

Enjoy it, at the honeymoon too  :lovers: :a2m:

Merry wedding!!! hope it all goes well - and I hope we will have pictures to see

isnt it your birthday tomorrow too??

Hope it lasts longer than mine did x

I'll be charging for the photographic evidence......and taking suitable bribes if needs be......

oh yeah! I keep forgetting bout that! how long was it? longer than Britney or Peaches?

have a good wedding

Many happy returns for the big day, me no hope it pishes down, hopefully the sun will shine and a good time will be had by all!!

Less than 13 months to mine (also during the season - I'm hoping I'm tempting fate by us then getting promotion and my wedding day clashing with some amazing Championship fixture!).

All the best, have fun!

I'm not too sure how long Britney and Peaches lasted. TBH i didn't even know they married each other but hey ho...

18 months for me, although technically we are still going strong!

best of luck to you both :)

Best of luck...hope all goes to plan

all the best sam

Good luck young Sam!  Has Fred given you the birds and the bees spiel yet? :-[

Funny as, I bet he is bricking it, have fun and good luck

All the best mate. Wish you and Nikki all the happiness in the world (god thats sounds gay oh well) I mean it!

Where/When is the reception and is it open invite?

Thanks guys! Feeling excited and a bit nervous at the same time. Really looking forward to it though. Fuck the weather, if it rains it doesn't matter, it's what we make of the day that counts.

The reception is at the Vale of White Horse Club in Cricklade. 7.30pm. If anyone wants to come along then feel free, the more the merrier. And it's club prices as well, only about £2 a pint.

All the best fella.

Good luck for tomorrow.  If I can give you one piece of advice from my wedding day...it's your day (you and the wife to be), no-one elses.  Enjoy it and do things for yourselves not others.  If that sounds selfish then it should.  If you two can't be selfish on your wedding day, then when can you?  Btw, you'll need to the lady in question to be on board with this line of thinking, thankfully mine was.

Have a truly wonderful day.

Best wishes, have a great day

Best wishes Sam and Nikki. Hope you both have a great day and everything really works out well for you.

Hope you are not booked into the honeymoon suite at the Cricklade Hotel and Country Club!  Wedding reception there last weekend, some prat emptied a foam fire extinguisher over the bed of the bride and groom.  Damaged the wallpaper, ruined the bed, £1,000 added to the bill for the happy couple.  They may not be too happy, but if they find out and report the idiot who did it, they have been told they will happily refund the money and bill the perpetrator!

All the best Sam, hope the day goes well and wish u both well

Good luck mate.

Good luck for tomorrow.

Good luck Sam.

Good luck to you both, enjoy your day!

Unlucky.

Hope you both have a lovely day :)

Best wishes to you and Mrs Gray-to-be for a long and happy future together.

Happy Birthday Sam, and all the best to the both of you on your wedding day, no doubt town have won by now by about 4 goals so we're all celebrating with you, i'll be raising a glass to bless your association tonight, congratulations!

All the best Samdy....best wishes for a long future together,Happy Birthday too....UP THE TOWN!

Cheers again people. Been for the rehearsal tonight and it really hit home when we had to practice the vows. My mum was crying and everything. Bless.

Really looking forward to it now, although I guess I may spend most of tomorrow morning rising from a warm seat with a piece of paper in my hand.

Best of luck Sam. Enjoy the day.

good luck fella, hope everything goes smoothly.

whats the full address of the reception place....

I might try and pop in, in the evening if you dont mind...

http://maps.google.co.uk/maps?hl=en&q=38%20high%20street%20cricklade&um=1&ie=UTF-8&sa=N&tab=wl

the one behind the clock?

Yeah, carry on down from the clock. There's a turning on the left just before the Tesco Express.

I might pop down if someone wants to give me a lift. If I don't make it have a good one Sam.

I might be a tad late, but I hope that all (Went) goes well for bride and groom today, and in the future.

Welcome to the club mate, I'd buy you both a toaster as a gift if I could be there.

An absolutely amazing day.

Felt very honoured and privileged to be asked to be part of it

Thank you Sam and Nickie

I am sure Pumba will post some pics at some point

Is that fred?

Hope you all had a nice day. Didnt miss much footballwise

Fuck

We were getting regular updates through out the reception (thanks Lady) and I would tend to agree with you !

how are you and the other one feeling today Fred?

did you shag a bridesmaid?

I am fine


she is very much under the weather

 :console: :oops:

no surprise there then!

None what so ever mate

Entertaining at least at some points. You were not happy....

Absolutely fantastic day. My head's all over the place at the moment and I don't really know how I feel, so many emotions in one day. It all went a bit quick really, but with somewhere around 1000 photographs we'll have a lot of memories to cherish.

Good glad it went well,how do we know you are you and not Fred though?

congratulations sam, glad all went well

Congrats Sam, glad you enjoyed the day, and you really didn't miss much at Cheltnum!

Have you ever seen Fred and Sam in the same place at the same time????

Glad it went well Sam :D. I'll go get a glass of wine and have a drink to celebrate. wooot

Forgive and forget mate

All ok now !

Ah, thought it must be a football thing. Small world indeed.

Congrats. When do you go on thew honeymoon?

Tuesday.

Sam and Nickie, thank you both so much for the invitation to share your special day. It was an honour and our privilege to be there with you, and everything went off to a tee. Thoroughly enjoyed ourselves and I'll kick Rach to get and process the hundreds of pictures she took yesterday.

I've yet to look at mine, but I'll be downloading them shortly. The ones on my phone from the club last night are rather, er, special.....beware Fred......

oh fuck !

Everything OK mate? I was panicking earlier that I'd forgotten to give back your key, and was half expecting the "Coxy, where the fuck is my fucking key" phone call......

All cool mate

Found the key in my pocket this morning along with many other undesirable items

Not guilty  :D

Thankfully for Fred, his blushes can be spared for a few days as I've mislaid my phone to pc cable  :doh:

Anyhow, I've downloaded my sum total of 35 shots from the day (shockingly low btw), and here are 7 samples that I've quickly (in 20 minutes) converted from RAW to JPG. Enjoy.

Lovely pictures. :)

Coxy, those are superb mate. Can't wait to see Rachel's as well!

We certainly owe you big time. Thank you!

Those are indeed pretty ace. Quickly scrolling down, in the one with nic flicking up her bride cape thing, I thought she was carrying a can of special brew.

I think my brain is broken.

Lovely pics, how long did it take for Fred to change into the blue boiler suit!!

looks like a nice day. congrats you two :)

How lovely - congrats

Bon Voyage Sam and Nickie

Have a brill honeymoon and see you both for the Hereford game

There going to cuba aren't they?

Say hello to Fidel and Raul!

Have to be up at 5am tomorrow to head off to the airport :(

have 5 beers and put the olympics highlights on, gauranteed to fall asleep.

I have 5 litres of red wine. That should do the trick.

 :D Unlucky Fred, I managed to locate my phone cable.......

Fred - I have another photo that I'll pm you rather than post on here - don't worry, its not embarassing or anything, but just thought you'd rather I didn't post it on open forum.

Rachel just said she took 364 shots, and out of that lot 60+ are quality. I've look through the lot, and if you thought mine were good, just wait until you see hers........they are absolutely stunning.

Can't wait to see them.

Been through about 450 photos today that other family members have taken. I think when we've put them all together we'll have photos for absolutely everything that happened during the day. Great for memories.

Hope that tropical storm has cleared by the time Sam gets there.  Risky business the Carribean in August.  I really want to go back to Mexico next September for our honeymoon but worried about the weather ruining it for us. 

Fred looks like Westwood in that picture.

check your pm

Drop da bomb !

 Don't know about him....but I wouldn't want him near my neck.

Cheers for the pm Mex, I'll look into that!
