Wedding of Shane Green and Kelly Burns
Islander Shane Green and the Administrator's daughter Kelly Burns were married
in a ceremony at St Mary's Church on the 29th September 2017.
Kelly writes: "We had a lovely wedding day on Friday 29th September 2017, with the church service starting at 2.30pm and from 5.00pm reception and a dance at the prince Philip Hall. It was a wonderfully fun day with lots of people joining in the celebrations. The whole island was invited and all the SA Agulhas visitors. The MV Edinburgh arrived that evening and the passengers came off after 8.00pm, but never the less they all joined in the celebrations! We would like to say a big thank you to everyone that came, gave gifts or sent us best wishes. This is the very first time an Administrator's child has married a islander. And now I can finally be on the family tree!"
