Not only is it a great fundraiser for cancer research, but the recent royal marriage is being reflected in the wedding theme for the event, which will also celebrate Haddington’s 15th birthday.
Organiser Michelle McBurney has been building up anticipation since Mother’s Day, when resident Joyce Butler generously loaned items from her own 1948 wedding for a special display. Joyce (nee Dearden) married Hector Butler on September 24 1948 at the Tenterfield Presbyterian Church.
The couple were attended by Valda Dearden as bridesmaid and Athol Butler as best man.
Mrs Butler’s wedding memorabilia was arranged by Ms McBurney as a special Mother’s Day tribute to all the resident mums.
It forms the foundation of a larger wedding-themed display curated by Ms McBurney that will form the backdrop of Thursday morning’s celebrations.
