MICHAEL CUMBERLAND

DEBORA MEILANI

Pictured following their wedding at St. Issell's Church, Saundersfoot, on Tuesday, November 5, are Michael Cumberland and Debora Meilani.

The groom, a system engineer at Thales UK, is the son of Wesley Cumberland and Jillian Cumberland, of Summerhill, while the bride, who was a secretary at Thales Indonesia, is the daughter of the late Mangku Trisno and the late Emma from Indonesia.

Given away by Johan Baardink (her former boss from The Netherlands), the bride wore a designer French lace gown with Swarovski detail, a Russian edge two-layer veil, a marabou feather bolero and a diamante tiara.

Chief bridesmaid was 15-year-old Caitlin Cumberland (niece), who wore a silver satin A-line dress with Swarovski detail, while bridesmaids were Melissa Wallace, aged six (niece), who wore an ivory dress with matching silver satin top, and 18-month-old Mia Williams (grand-niece) who wore a dress matching the bride's.

Best man was Tee-Jay Cumberland (nephew) and usher was Kieran Walton.

The ceremony was conducted by Rev. Canon Andrew Davies.

A reception was held at the Giltar Hotel, Tenby.

The couple, who will be honeymooning in the USA next year, are making their home in Crawley, West Sussex.
