They formed a colourful Guard of Honour after the service.Speaking of her time at the wedding, 10-year-old Olive, said: “It is nice of Justine to invite us. I’ve never been to a wedding before.”After the ceremony the bride, groom and guests travelled by vintage bus to the Reception at Girlguiding’s own Waddow Hall near Waddington. The Three Regions Room was most beautifully turned out with pompoms, lights, rag bunting, lace and flowers.Girlguiding Clitheroe and Bowland District and Girlguiding Ribble Valley Division wish the Mr and Mrs Tomlinson a happy honeymoon in Japan and a long and happy marriage. The newlyweds will make their home in Foulridge. Justine’s parents live in Sawley and members of her family attend St Michael and St John’s Church, Clitheroe, so she chooses to be a Brown Owl there because of the family link.
