Marriage in Paradise

Keith Williams weds his Thai Princess

Your bedraggled corespondent has only just returned, much the worse for wear, from Thailand after three days of celebrations to witness the marriage of 0ranuch Sawekwang and the groom, Keith Williams.

A contingent of around 50 friends and family on the groom’s side made the trip from Australia to the remote village of Khanom, the bride’s birthplace, to witness not one but two joyous ceremonies. 

Wedding day, Friday, began at 7am with a traditional Thai service led by local monks. Later that day, the bride looked stunning in her Thai wedding dress was now radiant in a western style gown ready to do the whole thing again, only this time in English. 

This ceremony was officiated by licensed Gold Coast marriage celebrant AJ who moonlights as Breakfast co-host with Bridge and Spida on 92.5 GOLDFM. Others from the radio industry who were present included Richard Fowler, David Rymer, Tim McDermott and Mark Collier all there to support the well respected RCS VP for South East Asia and to congratulate the happy couple.
