Married in Jamaica were Colin Sharpe and Karen Richards.

Colin, an underwriter with Barclays Bank, is the only son of Harry and Mavis Sharpe, of Park View Avenue, Cross Roads.

Karen, a ward administrator with Airedale NHS Trust, is the younger daughter of Arnold and Brenda Shires, of Malvern Crescent, Riddlesden.

The bride wore a cream sleeveless fitted dress with an extended train and trimmed lace bodice.

Her short veil was trimmed with lace and was held in place with a band of silk flowers. She carried a teardrop bouquet of red roses, orchids, gypsophila and green fern.

Bridesmaid Lauren Amy Sharpe (daughter) wore a long cream bo-peep-style dress trimmed with green bows, and a matching cream and green head-dress.

Her bouquet was a smaller version of the bride's.

Witnesses were Arnold Shires and Harry Sharpe.
