After the Civil Marriage Ceremony, Mr and Mrs Barker set off in their car for Kirk Maughold Parish Church. To allow the wedding guests time to arrive at the church first, a small detour was made and the happy couple were presented with their first bottle of champagne as a married couple by Vernon Lightbody of K&B Carriages. Jay took charge of the guests upon their arrival and had everybody in their places for the arrival of the bride and groom.
