Description

The building of the garage is almost complete. A home-made sign reads 'August 3rd 1965' - shots of the completed garage before the film cuts to the family and friends at a caravan site. Scenes from an agricultural show. The family attend an open air service at St. Tudno's Church in Llandudno and later they visit Holyhead. They walk along the promenade and later play some crazy golf. Nice shots of the different flowers and birds in the family garden. In the next scene we see a decorated wedding reception room before guests have arrived. We see guests making their way to the church soon followed by the bride. The bride and groom exit the church and pose for photographs. A couple sweep up the confetti after most of the guests have left. Shots of steeplejacks carrying out work on the tower of Christ Church Douglas-in-Parbold. Scenes from the wedding of Shelia Monk.
