A proposal on Table Mountain in Capetown, South Africa, led to the altar at St. Mary's Church in Leyland, Lancashire. Worden Hall, Leyland Capetown & Table Mountain Swellendam It was three years ago that friends of Kevin Henry came from South Africa to visit his brother, Anthony, in Leyland among whom was Jackie Frick from Swellendam. A couple of years later, Jackie went to London for a break and contacted Anthony again. Last February Anthony went out to South Africa to visit his daughter Maria with her husband Craig Bruce and their children Airen & Raven at Ellisras. Anthony drove 1,000 miles to Swellendam and invited Jackie to join him on a trip up Table Mountain and there at the top he proposed to her.
There was a real international feel to the wedding, for as well as Anthony's daughter from South Africa, his son Brendan jetted in from Vancouver in Canada to act as Best Man. Joining Brendan on the flight was his wife Joelle and baby Leilani. Also from South Africa was Jackie's son Pieter, who gave the bride away, and her daughter Nicolette who took on the role of bridesmaid. Not to be outdone by all these 'foreigners', Anthony's other daughter Ursula arrived from 'over the water' in Heswall on the Wirral.	Sorry, your browser doesn't support Java(tm).
