This is our second recent wedding photo being featured in "Who, When and Where". It shouldn't be too difficult to figure out what sport most of those in attendance played at the time, but can you name the bride and groom, those in attendance, where was the venue, and narrow down the date when it was taken?

He was an avid tennis player and a cricketer.
I first met him on the old tennis courts where the police field is in all those stooped casurina trees playing with Arthur 'Whistler' Rose; mamdah doze days?
Editors note - Although it was obviously not a rugby event, most of those present were involved with rugby, I think Parse was John's Sgt at the time. Don't recall John playing tennis or cricket. He and Barry may have been on the same Watch.
Editors note - I checked Barry's file and see that he arrived in Bermuda just a few months before John Rawson's wedding so I'm sure it's him, but I don;t recall Barry having any connection with rugby!
Editors note - Spot on Terry. Do you think that it is Barry Smith behind Willie McCracken who is just left of Dave Parsons?
Mike Cherry
Editors note - Many thanks Mike. I'm not sure about Ian Scotland. Can you confirm where he is on the photo? Also I bleieve the guy behind Will McCracken is Barry Smoth who joined the Force just a few months before the wedding but was not involved with rugby.
Only one got to live in Tuckers Town.
Some crew there.
Editors note - They may not all live in Tucker's Town but quite a few have done very well over the years. Sad to see Barry Smith in there who tragically left us all too soon. He had only been on Island for a few months when this photo was taken.
