Jim Richardson, 95, and his wife, Irene, 94, chose to mark their 75th anniversary by recreating memories of their wedding.

The couple met at a dance in a village when Jim was aged 20 and his wife 19. As they cycled together in the forest, Jim popped off his bike to get down on a knee to propose her.

Even though the two have been enjoying the marriage happily, Jim has always been regretting that he did not have a wedding march and he did not express gratitude to his late mother in the groom’s speech during his marriage.
