Wedding Blessing in the Cathedral

We are both privileged and proud to have taken part in the first Wedding Blessing of this kind in the Diocese of Oxford. We are truly grateful to the Dean and Cathedral for what was a truly moving ceremony that our families from the USA, Germany and the UK will treasure forever. As an alumnus, I feel particularly lucky to be able to celebrate our union in a place where I have so many happy memories and to be able to have so many friends from my time at Christ Church be there too.
