Going to the Chapel of Love

When Janet’s nephew Tom was 16 years old, he came home one day and told his mom she needed to go sign a paper giving him permission to join the military. It came as a surprise but with Tom never being much of a student, Pam granted her blessing and now 22 years later, he is still active and having a very successful career.

I will probably get all this wrong, but will try. Tom is a member of a branch of the British Army called The Rifles. At some point in their history, they were the Royal Green Jackets so you might be able to tell in my photos that their pants are black but their jackets are dark green. It is an infantry unit but is also the bugler unit — I just love that combination — so they get to train and perform a lot of impressive rites and traditions.

Early in his career, they took Tom, someone with no musical experience at all, and taught him to play the bugle. He has had some awesome assignments because of it, too — being assigned to travel with the highest ranking officers just in case they have a fancy dinner and need a bugler and playing in the Tattoo in Edinburgh and other such ceremonial events. Most memorable, though, at least to the family members, is when he played Last Post at his grandfather’s funeral (Janet’s Dad’s funeral). On the other hand, it has certainly not all been fun and games as he has had deployments to Afghanistan and Iraq and some very challenging training courses.

Friday was wedding day…..or shall I say Friday was finally wedding day. The last of Pam’s sons to get married, Tom and Hannah have been together since 2006, engaged since 2017. I think from the very beginning of any of us meeting Hannah, we all felt that they were perfectly matched.

The wedding was at noon but we were encouraged to get there early. Janet, Babs and I just took a London black cab to the most interesting venue, Asylum Chapel. From the website:

“Established in or around 1827, Caroline Gardens Chapel in Peckham formed the heart of London’s largest complex of almshouses (charitable housing) originally known as the Licensed Victuallers’ Benevolent Institution Asylum (LVBI). The Grade II listed site was not a psychiatric facility – here, ‘asylum’ traditionally meant ‘sanctuary’ — and was actually a home for elderly, retired pub landlords.

Residents were entitled to a small weekly cash payment, coal, medical care and medicine. With the welfare state still being over 100 years from creation, almshouses were an important part of life, offering impoverished Georgian and Victorian elders the only alternative to destitution or the workhouse.”

The building was heavily damaged during WWII but miraculously, the stained glass windows survived. It sat unused until restoration talks began in 1977 but fizzled out. In 2010, the arts community discovered it and began hosting shows and art exhibits. The non-profit running it now has received both lottery and heritage funds to work on the roof and repair one of the stained glass windows. It was a really cool place for a wedding on a warm sunny day and the addition of Tom and his military friends in their dress uniforms along with attention-grabbing bugling, added to the beauty. But beyond that, I think everyone in the room was just so happy for Tom and Hannah to finally be able to get married. They deserved a perfect day and from my perspective, they certainly got it.

After the wedding, we all went outside and had drinks and sausage rolls (it’s England, after all!) and the obligatory photo shoot went on and on. Eventually everyone made their way over to the reception venue, mostly on foot, including the bride and groom! And then for the rest of the day — and until the venue had to close at midnight, we were told — people ate, drank, danced (including Babs dancing with her grandson, the groom), laughed, cried, sang, gave speeches, made toasts, had caricatures drawn and of course, those who could, bugled. What’s not to love?

I loved the suit in which Tom changed into after his dress uniform.

Caroline Penvenen Appreciation Week:

Day 6: Book!Caroline moments

"Well Dwight." She took off her hat, shook it once and dropped it on a chair. "So they have dragged you away and you have come to redeem your promises!" She went across and kissed him on the sores on his lips.

(...)

- Caroline, my love, my own...

- Ah, hear that, Ross! So he has committed himself at last! I believe we shall have wedding after all. If we do, it will be the biggest one in Cornwall ever. We shall have to hire an Admiralty band and army buglers and the choirs of three churches, all to celebrate that Dr. Enys has been caught at last!... You see, I am weeping with relief. I am to be saved from the horrors of the spinster’s life! But Dr Enys, you notice, is also weeping, and that, I know, is for his lost freedom...”

Caroline stood there a second, a gentle smile on her face but without visible change of expression.

“Well, Dwight." She took off her hat, shook it once and dropped it on a chair. “So they have dragged you away and you have come to redeem your promises!” She went across and kissed him on the sores on his lips.

“Caroline!” He tried to turn his head away.

She said: “Good heaven, so I still have to make all the advances! D’you know, my dear, I am never allowed to retain any maidenly modesty, for I have to run after you, seek you out, and even to kiss you without receiving any embrace in return!”

He was looking at her as if unable to believe she was there, as if not crediting that she had not changed, grown older, lost any of her freshness or youth.

“Caroline!” he said again.

“All this time," [Caroline] said, "while you were hiding in that prison camp I have been wondering if I would ever be able to bring you to the point of fulfilling your promise. Time and time again, I have thought no, he will never do it, I am doomed to be an old maid. Now, when at the last you are in England, I have to ride all morning through the pouring rain to catch you before you slip away again. Look at my habit, it will take a drying and ironing and perhaps will shrink from the very saturation. And my hair." She twisted some of it in her fingers, and more drops fell on the floor. But now it was not only drops from her hair. "Caroline my love, my own..." "Ah, hear that, Ross! So he has committed himself at last! I believe we shall have a wedding after all. If we do, it will be the biggest ever in Cornwall. We shall have to hire an Admiralty band and army bugler and the choirs of three churches, all to celebrate that Dr Enys has been caught at last! ...You see, I am weeping with relief. I am saved from the horrors of a spinster's life! But Dr Enys, you notice is also weeping, and that, I know, is for his lost freedom." "Caroline, please," Ross said, wiping his hand across his own eyes. "But I shall not desert you, Dwight," Caroline said, patting his arm. "I shall stay near this house until you are fit to travel, and shall take special care to ensure you do not slip away to sea. And when you are fit to travel, I shall sit beside you in a coach and link your arm so that you are not able to jump out. When shall we be married? Can you name the day to set my heart at rest?" Dwight said indistinctly: "I am not fit -- like this. You see, I am a little altered, my love." "Yes, I observe, and so we must alter you back, mustn't we? We must feed you on mutton broth and calves' liver and raw eggs and canary wine. Then you will have the courage to take me as your lawful wife, as we arranged in the good old days..." Verity touched her cousin's arm. "Come, Ross, we us leave them. I do belive they will not fall out..." Dwight again said: "Caroline..." but as if this time all the crack in his heart were widening. "If you will still take me. But I shall need time..." As Ross withdrew Caroline was still weakly talking. It was the one solutive. "I think it should be an October wedding, don't you? [...] Until then you must come home with me, even to the scandal of the neighbourhood. We will feed you up right away with the best things we can find. You shall be cosseted and fed and allowed rest and given the best of everything. And if you are not feeling better in a week or two, we will send for the doctor..."

-- The Reunion Scene, The Black Moon by Winston Graham, pp. 504-506
