Given away by her uncle, Mr. Geoff Morgan, the bride wore a designer gown in champagne, with gold embroidered detail and train.

Bridesmaids Carly Thomas (bride's sister), Klair Brooks (groom's sister) and Natasha Butler (friend) wore crimson satin dresses, with pleated detail bodices, while younger bridesmaid, Rosie Thomas (daughter), wore an ivory-trimmed crimson dress.

Page boys were Cain Thomas and Archie Brooks (sons). Best man was Mark Bowles (friend), while ushers were Terry and Richard Paxton (bride's brothers) and Neil Hart (friend).

Following the ceremony, which was conducted by Canon David Jenkins, with Dr. John Harrison at the organ, a reception was held at the town's De Valence Pavilion. There, the couple cut a magnificent wedding cake made by Mrs. Ella Robinson, of Cosheston.

Later they left for a honeymoon in Majorca, and will be making their future home in Tenby.
