I don't think it was just the afterglow of a splendid bike ride; there seemed to be an aura of magic surrounding the ceremony, which was held under a 400 year old oak tree. I think it was the magic of seeing two very happy people getting married.
The bride and the groom were still holding forth on the dance floor when I had to give up and head home at midnight, so I think it is safe to say that they enjoyed the party.
