Dear Steven, I wanted to thankyou so very much for making my taxi ride to the wedding so much fun. Your attention to detail, the surprize in the park, the way you managed to relax the guests waiting at the venue before we even arrived, (hehe, all that tooting) was superb. Thankyou also for waiting until the ceremony was over to make sure we had the photo opportunity with your cab was so generous.

WEDDING NOTE..

from the time honoured era of chivalry... The Bride is always on the left arm of her father, so he can draw his sword with his right arm, to protect her ...which is also why the bride will then stand on the groom's left arm.
Guys.. wearing a waist coat, the jacket buttons are not done up, from a time when button are a symbol of wealth, that is why your jacket has 5 buttons on the sleeve !
