A wedding on my birthday!


This year my birthday happened to be the same day as the wedding of two friends of ours, Estelle and Bernhard. They are a franco-german couple who live close to us, so we see them fairly often. They have a little boy Nathanael, who will be two in november.

After the wedding in the center of town we went to Langoiran, for the reception. There is a medieval castle there that is still privately owned and rented often for parties. The following photos are at the reception. The castle has a really great view.


 At the party they had picture frames and costumes so that people could dress up and take pictures, so naturally we had to participate, yes the person in purple is me! I thought Jeremie looked good in glasses frankly!
 The tower and with the German flag flying for Bernhard, we were sure that we found the right castle when we saw the flag!

Overall a great time and we were so happy to share this day with the happy couple!
