Ethan and Jake on a stakeout
Ethan and Jake take cover as special agents, on the look out for any trouble.
Blue silk sash over white chair cover
Blue silk sashes in bows, tied behind each seat covered in white linen decorated the ceremonial room for each of our 30 guests.
The view from the Chartwell Suite
This is the sea view from the Chartwell Suite where the ceremony took place. In this photo are the two chairs for the grooms, in front of the registrars table ready and complete with the table centrepiece that Jezz hand made.
Jake staying vigilant
Jake keeps all exits guarded and monitors the staircase prior to the grooms arriving.
Ring cushion
Two cushions were used to hold and display the rings. The cushions were chosen by Jezz from a Kimono silk accessories boutique in The Lanes, Brighton.
Jake checking the guests
Jake takes a walk down the right hand side of the guests and picks on Michèle. He lowers his dark glasses, gestures that he is keeping an eye on her.
Ethan as security special agent
Ethan spots what he initially thought was paparazzi but turned out to be Simon, our photographer.
Ethan, Andy and Ali and Simon behind
Watching the ceremony are Ethan and Andy with Ali and Simon in the row behind.
The grooms at the registrars table

Just married, black and white
With Jake and Vicki in the picture, the grooms leave the ceremonial room with 'Just Married' fix to their collars... well, there was no car!
All on the horseshoe staircase
Ladies on the left, men on the right and the ceremonial party centred. We can say ladies and men because no one present was non-identifying!
Cake topper
Another of Amanda's great inputs to the day, a hand made mini Jezz and Wayne on the cake. It's now under a glass cloche in the lounge forever.
Security, daughter and son-in-law
Ethan, Kelly, Jake and Chris. Ethan and Jake as our security special agents for the ceremony. Our gorgeous daughter Kelly and her husband, Chris.

Ethan and Jake enter as security
The ceremony starts with our grandsons, Ethan and Jake coming up the stairs of The Chartwell Suite, dressed as security agents, making sure that there is no danger before the grooms arrive.
The ceremony table and view
In The Chartwell Suite, on the 7th floor of The Hilton Brighton Metropole, floor to ceiling glass windows show off the view of the seaside, the beach, the West Pier. And in the room is the decorated ceremony table and grooms chairs.
Security agents: Ethan and Jake
Taken in their hotel room, special agents Ethan and Jake are ready for the high security mission ahead, bodyguards to the grooms. This photo was taken by their Mummy, Kelly.
