Delphine, of Westcott Place, said: "It worked out that one of us was getting married one month and one was the following. We decided to just have a double wedding. It was the first one they had had at that church. It was quite unusual, everyone was talking about it.

"We did it one after the other. My sister went first because she’s older. My dad gave her away and my younger brother gave me away. We both wore white dresses. It was a lovely day.

"We always celebrate our main anniversaries together like our silver and ruby ones."
