The Christmas bells have been ringing across the country this weekend with Swannies holding mega Christmas parties in Hanoi and Saigon. But the wedding bells have also been ringing.

Earlier in the year, Dave Hadley married Margrete in Norway. He loved it – and her – so much he decided to do it all again for a second time on Saturday in Melbourne (Vietnamswans.com is unable to confirm whether ‘mystery friend’ attended the first wedding).

Meanwhile, on 18 November, Dave Robb married Anne-Marie in HCMC.

From all the Swannies, congratulations to Dave, Anne-Marie, Dave and Margrete.
