Johnson's Wedding Part 2


Tracy and Chris' Wedding Part 2 at Tai Pan will all the family.
The Chinese wedding with a Chinese banquet.


Suckling Pork


Lobster



Bird's Nest - Nest is made from potato then filled with veg and seafood - scallops, prawn, squid


Chinese Roast Chicken - Not sure why there's prawn crackers on top cos there isn't usually


Special Fried Rice


Fried ho fun with pork


Port in a sweet and sticky sauce


Tofu


Steamed Sea Bass


Choi Sum


Roast Duck

It was a proper feast - there was steamed rice and we also had prawn crackers with chicken and sweet corn soup as a starter. The food was good and everyone enjoyed it. It's been a while.. but Chinese banquets always go down well especially the lobster! The only thing everything is so heavily seasoned you get so thirsty after it all.

We got there for 12:30pm and we didn't leave till 6:15pm they were definitely sick of us and ready for us to leave. There was 6 tables and we had to give back the two big tables as they were booked by someone else. But luckily they didn't kick us out like when we were in Gino's.


I'm so over wearing heels so trainers it was

Dress - Zara
Trainers - New Balance 327 (Footlocker)

Tracy's Dress - H&M

Love that Amelie is in the background asleep..






We still didn't take enough photos and there's no family ones! Tracy it just going to have to milk the wedding even longer and do more of a family thing to make sure there's enough photos to prove it happened!

 The young ones went out to the docks again but I had to pass this time as I'm up at 5am for work.
18 days left and I'm in London next weekend for my birthday to see Hamilton at the West End!

Tracy and Chris' Wedding

Saturday 10th July 2021
Liverpool Parish Church (Our Lady and Saint Nicholas)



3 weeks ago Tracy and Chris got married at St Nic's in town. It was a small family wedding with only immediate family including me! Tracy's parents, Gary, Kirsty, Lucas, Oliver, Laura, grandma Wing. Chris's parents, his sisters Rachael, Nicola, Nicola's boyfriend Andrew and baby Robyn. It was only a short ceremony unlike most weddings that last for hours. It was a really nice day and loved it. Was a bit weird how most of the family wasn't there but it was still a big celebration.

Tracy looked amazing, loved her dress and hair!






The ceremony was at St Nicholas church in town and then we went for a meal at Gino's and Pan Am.







Amelie is so cute but she hated it and cried all the way through. She doesn't even usually cry but it was like she knew it was her mum and dad's big day so made a fuss.

Gino's











Calamari with roasted veg


Spinach and Ricotta Ravioli - Sage butter & toasted almonds


Passion Fruit Ice Cream

The food did not look great. It looked so much nicer the last time I went. It should have looked better this time if anything as it was for a wedding!


We sent the parents and babies home and went to Pan Am for drinks at the Albert Dock.
















Didn't take enough photos! I didn't even get a photo with Tracy and Chris together.
We only had the photographer at the church and all photos taken in Pan Am were on my phone as everyone realised I had a really good camera so I was photographer and my phone just got passed round for photos to be taken.

Loved the wedding and had a really nice day celebrating the new Mr and Mrs Johnson! Thanks for the invite Tracy and Chris!

Love from your favourite cousin
