“Right at the moment we said our vows, the sails started turning. Sjoerd had promised that beforehand and it happened exactly as he said it would.”
“My grandmother uses a wheelchair and could not go into the mill itself, that was made clear beforehand. She could join the celebration fine in the orangery, so it was not a problem, just good to know in advance.”
“The orangery looking out over the dike was exactly the backdrop we wanted for a small celebration of sixty guests. Everything felt personal, nothing felt rented.”
“The 22:00 curfew felt early for our guests, who are used to parties running into the small hours, but the village is small and Sjoerd's explanation made that clear.”
