A SEDGLEY couple were treated to the high life on their wedding day with a surprise helicopter trip.

Gemma Hughes and Craig Taylor arrived in style for their wedding reception by helicopter after a spectacular surprise from Gemma's sister Claire and brother-in-law Mark Kelsey, who works with Gemma.

The couple were married at All Saints Church, Sedgley, on Saturday July 14 and were heading by car to their reception at Davenport House in Worfield.

But their driver took a detour to Bobbington airport where a helicopter took them to their reception.

Gemma's sister Claire said: "Gemma and Craig both were greeted by cheering guests on the lawns and balconies at Davenport House and were absolutely thrilled with their arrival."
