Henry Clayton was able to give his daughter away at her wedding A care home hosted a wedding blessing so a 99-year-old resident could give his daughter away. Fiona Butler-Clayton and new husband Richard Butler, both 60, tied the knot in the Cotswolds but her father, Henry Clayton, was unable to travel the long distance due to his health. But he was still able to do his fatherly duties at The Spinney – his care home in Chingford, London.
She said: ‘Dad was a big part of the planning of the blessing, visiting the minister with me and discussing the plans. I’m so pleased he could get involved, I know it made him feel special and included. ‘The team at The Spinney went above and beyond for us, decorating the home and providing a prosecco reception following the blessing.
