Congratulations to you are your son Richard. Wear your Rolex Submariner with pride and perhaps pop off a few pics of the groom and his C9 BDD should the opportunity avail itself :)

Enjoy the day and all the wedding fun.

Speaking as father of the bride first and then father of the groom, my advice is that there's not a lot of difference between the two. When I gave away the former I had the chance to (1) privately speak with the groom and tell him that if he ever messed my daughter about - knowing that he never will - that I'd break his legs and drop him in the canal. (2) to speak publicly about the joys of raising a daughter.
So when my son got married I seem to recall giving him the same "advice" in (1) with respect to my new daughter-in-law. As regards (2) well there wasn't a "his turn now" moment during the reception but I guess I said pretty much the same thing to everyone in turn about raising a son!

You will have a fantastic day. There will be memories, happiness and maybe you'll even rinse your eyes from time to time as did I.

Enjoy your day and maybe you should give this forum a miss for the day but post us a photo afterwards eh?

Thank you all for your kind wishes, I'm so looking forward to the wedding. Only one thing left to do and that is pour myself a long cold beer. :D

All the best to you and your son tomorrow, Richard. The submariner is a great watch for a special day.

Thank you for all your kind posts, I believe there is a saying 'a photograph is worth a thousand words'. I'll add just two, "magical day".
