THE Lancashire Evening Telegraph's Bride of the Year finally tied the knot in a fairytale ceremony.

Janine Clegg, 24, married Andrew Philip, 26, at All Saints Church, Habergham, Burnley.

When the nine judges chose Janine as the Lancashire Evening Telegraph Bride of the Year last September, she was so overcome with joy she burst into tears.

Thirty brides-to-be entered the competition and were whittled down to 10 after hundreds of Lancashire Evening Telegraph readers voted.

Janine, of Masefield Avenue, Padiham, won a dress with gold bodice and full skirt, designed by Roberta at Design Room, Rawtenstall, and gold court shoes from Dreamaker.

Alison Heptonstall, Dreamaker wedding co-ordinator, said: "She looked stunning."

Andrew, a logistics co-ordinator, of River Drive, Padiham, wore a navy tail-coat with gold waistcoat and tie, also by Dreamaker.

A reception at the Higher Trapp, Simonstone, featured a firework display by Phenomenal Fireworks, Blackburn.

Other prizes included engagement photographs by Liz at Gareth's, Great Harwood, a bridal bouquet and video by Dreamaker and travel vouchers for a honeymoon.
