Gordon and Mavis Allan, residents at Ozcare’s Keith Turnbull Place aged
care facility on the Gold Coast, recently celebrated their 75th Wedding
Anniversary with the renewal of their wedding vows.
Gordon, 99 and Mavis, 96 joined hands and hearts 75 years ago and have
remained united in love and life ever since.
The vow renewal ceremony was organised by Ozcare staff in collaboration
with Gordon and Mavis’ family. The ceremony was held in the facility
recreation room and was lovingly decorated by staff with items from their
own wedding.
In preparation for the big moment, Mavis visited the on-site hairdresser
and the happy couple dressed in their finest outfits. Staff, residents and
family gathered at tables adorned with centrepieces for the moving ceremony
conducted by Father Hobbs.
Guests toasted the bride and groom and celebrated the occasion with
afternoon tea and the couple’s wedding cake, a replica of their original
wedding cake created 75 years ago.
