Zeist, the Netherlands

Yes, at half past two 💍

Forty years ago they said yes, and we gave them that one minute back.

A gold wedding ring
It rained that morning, and grandma said rain brings luck. At half past two they said yes, in the town hall on the market square, with thirty-eight people on folding chairs and a photographer who had run out of film too soon. Afterwards there was a tent in the garden. The band knew eleven songs, so those eleven came round three times. Halfway through the last one the power went out, and they simply danced on in the dark. Forty years later they are still here. We bought them this minute. Not the day, not the year: this one minute, the one it began on.

    The tent, the band, those eleven songs. I can still hear them. What a gift this is.

  2. Uncle Ger

    I sat in the third row and my chair creaked at every word. Good that it is written down somewhere now.

  3. Sanne

    Forty years. We are coming on Sunday, with cake.

  4. Peter and Els

    We married three weeks later, with the same band. Congratulations, both of you.
