Overview
A record of Jillian Murison and Kenneth Jenkin’s wedding day, mainly shot by the groom’s father, Chris Jenkins, proprietor of a hair salon in Cardiff and a keen amateur film-maker. The signing of the register is noted in detail and, on this blustery day, the wind plays havoc with the bride’s veil when posing for photographs outside All Saints Church, Galbalfa Road, Llandaf, Cardiff. But all is well and the happy couple hold a reception with a traditional sit-down meal.
