And the bride wore white - long, curly white strands of wool.
Louise Fairburn, who is an award-winning sheep breeder, decided to get married in a fleece from her own flock.
She designed the gown and took wool from her favourite rare Lincoln Longwool, Olivia.
And she extended the theme to the rest of her big day, putting her groom Ian, 42, in a waistcoat made from wool.
Mrs Fairburn even carried a Bo Peep-style crook and the ring bearer's cushion was made from a fleece....

What can I say, Miss staplegun 1993 was.. interesting.
And yes, the faun image does quote bring her to mind.
I have *cough* fond memories of my escape out the door at the conclusion of that date.

It's Darksheare. I'm not sure an explanation is possible. Briefly, odd things happen to and around Darks.Well, thank you for trying. I thought it might have something to do with sheepshearing.

Yeah, except it sounds like a liberal charity; I remember seeing something like “Please make a donation on our website to end violence”. As for their wedding march, I felt violently ill at seeing their act in a church. Cute entrance for the reception but totally undignified for the house of God.Thanks for the deeper look. I got so used to various blasphemies in the mainstream Protestant churches that it barely registers any more -- but I did leave the Methodists, not long after the kindergarten children playing angels in the nativity pageant danced the macarena on the altar platform. I don't live close enough to a Catholic or Orthodox church here to make the trip for instruction. But I hope to find a genuinely reverent religion when I move.

Beautiful and talented woman!
The dress is a bit wild, and they better hope it doesn’t rain. (I once had some Ram’s Head seat covers, and was bewildered one rainy day by a strange odor...)
