Married at the Priory Church of St Mary and St Cuthbert, Bolton Abbey, last Friday were James Alexander Blamire and Emma Barrett.

James - a sales advisor at Harrison and Clough, Keighley - is the younger son of Keith and Val Blamire, of Fence, Burnley.

Emma - who works as a business support analyst at the Bradford and Bingley, Crossflatts - is the younger daughter of Howard and Christine Barrett, of Keighley Road, Silsden.

The bride wore an ivory embroidered duchess-satin box-pleated gown with train, and a matching embroidered veil held in place with a pearl and porcelain tiara.

She carried a bouquet of bianca roses, cream freesias and white bouvadia. Bridesmaids were Rebecca Smith, Suzanne Barrett (bride's sister) and Laura Maisey.

They wore hyacinth-blue two-piece silk outfits and carried bouquets of flowers matching the bride's, and eryingiums.

The bridegroom's brothers Simon and Rupert Blamire were best man and groomsman respectively.

William Maisey, a friend of the bride and groom, was also a groomsman.
