Congratulations Mr and Mrs Jon Titcombe

Andrew & Diane Titcombe in Wigton Cumbria celebrated (joyfully) their eldest son JONATHAN ERIC's wedding to Bonnie Hostler from Cambridge The new Mr and Mrs Jon Titcombe will be living in Coalville Leicestershire when they return from a honeymoon in the USA (including 3 days in Las Vegas) The marriage service was at St John the Evangelist Church London Road Carlisle http://www.stjohnscarlisle.plus.com/ on June 25th 2011. After the service guests made their way to Keswick to the Lodore Falls Hotel for the reception. This was followed by a cruise on Derwentwater and an evening disco back in the hotel.
Bonnie is a florist in East Leake so the flowers in the church and at the wedding breakfast were beautiful. She and Jon planned the wedding so thoughtfully that every little detail was amazing down to the ducks on the place setting. All the guests were impressed and are still talking about the event
Official photos are still awaited but family photos can be seen here including a video of the first dance to a Michael Buble song !
We are sorry we couldn't invite every Titcombe or even Titcomb but, as proud parents, we invite you to look at our / their special day and share our joy
On an interesting Titcombe family note when my wife and I researched family history in Reading some years ago we noted that often the TITCOMBE name was often spelled without an E and also that many Titcombs were, in fact, OSTLERS by trade so it is fitting that Jonathan has married a girl with a family name of HOSTLER
