Alcumlow Wedding Barn · Astbury, Cheshire
How it began
Venezuela and England, an unlikely mix,
yet that's a pairing which somehow now clicks.
He's into dark skies and new tech inventions,
she's into sunshine and new travel intentions.
On a rooftop in Melbourne is where they collided,
a nine hour date, the future decided.
A distant spark and a shimmer of light,
and now here they are, with no end in sight.
