A former Ilkley Grammar pupil will be the star attraction at a premiere hosted by the country's most famous cinema.

Rebecca West will make history when she marries Brett Taylor at the Odeon cinema in London's Leicester Square on Saturday, January 22.

Rebecca, 31, and Brett, 32, have been chosen as the first couple to tie the knot at the cinema, which regularly hosts film premieres attended by a galaxy of stars.

And, fittingly, she lives in Notting Hill, setting for last year's hit movie starring Hugh Grant and Julia Roberts.

A former usherette at Bradford Film Theatre, she will walk down the aisle to music from the Odeon's original 1930s organ. Tunes will include the Bond theme and the 21st Century Fox fanfare.

The cinema screen will be used as a backdrop when the couple exchange vows - showing a kissing scene from their chosen film, Cinema Paradiso.

Rebecca said she and Brett, a designer for an exhibition company, are both keen film buffs and had jumped at the chance after spotting an Odeon advert in a magazine, asking for potential couples.

"I spoke to Brett and said we've just got to do this. That was August/September time and we were delighted in November when we found out we had been chosen," said Rebecca.

She joked: "I am known as Rebecca or Beccy but my Christian name is actually Elizabeth. If you look at Brett's surname, then technically I will be Elizabeth Taylor after the service."

An Odeon spokesman said: "Odeon believes it should make its flagship cinema available for film-lovers to tie the knot."
