The generous couple and their wedding guests also donated a further £220, which they raised at their evening party with a game of 'heads & tails', with the winning prize dinner for two being donated by their wedding venue, Thainstone House Hotel, Inverurie.
Friends of ANCHOR would like to thank the happy couple once again and also wish them a very long and happy life together.
