Lara and Ian Smith
married
12:00, 20 March 1999
Cambridge Registry Office
Guests came from all over the world for this momentous event. Lara, who's family
live in Moscow, and Ian, who lives in Pendle, and who's family live around Cambridge, were
married just after 12.00 midday at Cambridge Registry Office on Saturday, 20th March 1999.
The ceremony was attended by about 30 guests including a French General and his
wife, a family from Korea and Boris, Lara's father, from Moscow. It was a doubly
significant event as this was Boris's first ever trip outside of Russia! The
reception was held at The Golden Ball in Boxworth.
Lara and Ian met via correspondence about a year ago and after visits to Moscow and
England it wasn't long before they realized that they wanted to be together on a permanent
basis. In the last six months they have kept in constant contact via letters, phone
calls and email. Lara has to go back to Moscow after next week to finish her job
there with the Korean firm, Samsung. After that she will return to England and they
will reside in Pendle.
