The prospective bride would appear to be Emily Charlotte Beresford REYNOLDS (birth registered Q4 1997 - Oxford; mother's maiden surname Snell). Her elder sister would appear to be Rosie Elinor Beresford REYNOLDS (birth registered Q4 1995 - Northallerton; mother's maiden surname Snell). They are the daughters of Peter John Beresford REYNOLDS (born 12 I 1961) and his wife (marriage registered 1994), Jessica R L SNELL (presumably, she is the person of that name whose birth was registered in Bucklow in Q2 1963).
