Deidesheim und Ruppertsberg.

Deidesheim and Ruppertsberg lie next to each other in "German Wine Country", about an hour drive from Frankfurt. I was there to celebrate my friends Sonja and Gunnar. Sonja was an au-pair with me in Edinburgh back in 1997-1998, and Gunnar is from my hometown Skien. They met when I visited them both in Aberdeen in 2002, hit it off immediately and married in October 2013. This was their wedding party, and what a beautiful place to celebrate this amazing couple . People were flying in from United States, Great Britain and Norway, so we were quite an international crowd.
