The groom, from Hartlepool, married the woman of his dreams when they walked down the aisle at Maryculter House Hotel on the outskirts of Aberdeen, in Scotland.

Their big day came complete with Scottish touches including dancing the Grand March at their reception at Culter House, Jonathan dressed in tartan kilt, and a bagpiper who piped Moira in to her wedding.

Jonathan, 33, recalled how the dream started five years earlier when he was working onshore for Danish oil and gas company Mersk, in Aberdeen.

Moira, 39, was working there as well and Jonathan said: "She was in the same office as me. We got chatting, started going out and we got engaged about nine months later."

The pair chose Culter House because "it is one of the nicer venues in the area," said Jonathan who still visits relatives in Hartlepool despite leaving the town about 14 years ago.

It also meant members of his family could be at his big day and that included mam and dad, brother, aunts and uncles.

Jonathan admitted to a touch of nerves before the wedding ceremony but the event itself went like clockwork.

Best man was Colin Taylor and the bridesmaids were Jonathan's niece Macey Fleetham-Reid, Moira's two daughters Laura McKnockiter, 16, and Kerri McKnockiter, aged nine, Moira's sister Susan Main, and her daughter Rachel Main.

The two groomsmen were Matthew Fleetham-Reid and Paul Hind.

The couple's first dance at their reception was to the Take That hit Greatest Day.

They then headed off for a honeymoon which took in New York, San Francisco and Hawaii.

"We had a great time. It was fantastic," said Jonathan.
