On a bright, sunny, spring day in March I had the great pleasure of officiating at Amanda and Tony Cartwright´s
Wedding at Gosfield Hall, nr Braintree, Essex. The Wedding Party enjoyed the exclusive use of this delightful
venue. We had a fantastic day and a lot of fun with so much to enjoy. Amanda looked stunning and Tony amazed
when he saw her coming down the aisle.Tony´s Best Man, Chris Clarke was brilliant with his speech full of energy, wit,
laughter and the occasional need for evasive action! All the speakers were excellent.The Wedding Breakfast was held
in the Banqueting Hall a grand and wonderful setting.The cake was cut just before the First Dance and the party went with a
swing! Amanda & Tony wrote to me soon after the Wedding and their comments are posted on the ´Introduction´ page but
they been kind enough to send the following testimonial as well. Thank you

´There is no doubt that any Wedding is for sure the one of the
greatest days the Bride and Groom will ever incur.
This was certainly the case for Amanda and Tony as well as our family
and friends, and there is no doubt that a large part of that perfect
day was down to Ted Prior.
He is a true professional, with organisation, great charm, wit and where needed authority.
Thanks to Ted our day flowed with absolute ease and precision and his
support for me as the nervous bride was so reassuring.
His ability to ensure that everybody was where they needed to be at
the right times whilst remaining discreet and out of the frame was
remarkable and yet his interaction with the whole party and people
ensured everybody had the most wonderful day.
A great big thanks to Ted for making our day without a doubt the best
day ever and without you it would never have been so good.´
