It just says British Army soldier and his bride. She looks like she has Eastern Europe wedding head dress. Maybe in Bosnia/Kosovo?

The Hedges wedding might have had quite a few vehicles but look at this mass wedding of 5,000 in Indonesia supported by the Army.

Nothing to see here. Just a gold Australian wedding tank.

Much more likely to be Northern Ireland. The vehicle looks like a Humber Pig (or possibly one of the beefed-up Land Rovers), and the SLR had been replaced by the SA-80 before Bosnia.

Well I issued the wedding train to the driver at 1400, and when I came back at 16:30 it was waiting at the door, so I assume the day went off without a hitch (or should that be with a hitch?).

I have asked the groom for a photo of it in use if he has, but in the meantime here are some shots of it in the sunlight in all it's beauty.

Although I have become somewhat versed in getting married (but not how to stay married) over the years, no, I won't be modifying my guns in any way beyond what was stock.

My daughter does perform weddings however. Not sure where she got that particular license from, but she has officiated that act a few times now. She is (or will be any day now) a CPA (Chartered professional accountant) so perhaps it's a sideline to make ends meet.

Smart girl.

Marry them then they come to you to sort out the financial arrangements of the divorce.

Not much different from being a CPA really....when the economy is good, they are busy. When the economy turns bad, then they get really busy.
