Emma Beamish (Blathwayt 2001)

On the windiest, coldest and wettest (in other words a typical Irish summer) day in August 2016 – the 20th to be precise, I became a Mrs and Barry was officially stuck with me forever. After five years together, having lived in three countries, we were finally in one place long enough to get married in the beautiful church of Rathmichael in Dublin. I am currently teaching English, coaching sports, editing the yearbook and generally getting involved in most things going on at The High School in Rathgar, Dublin.

Tasha Banks (Bristowe 2006) and Tom Woolston (Bristowe 2006)

Many congratulations and best wishes to Tasha and Tom on their marriage back in September 2016. Great to see so many ORs helping them to celebrate: Ollie Weguelin, Sophie Thomas, Deji Alli, Alli James, Fiona Lambert, Louise Thomas, Charles Muwanga-Magoye, Halcy Manton, Huw Edward Morgan, Oliver Wilson, Rachel Corbould, Ross Barden, Nicholas Muir-Little, Lucas Macdonald, Harry

Cosgrave and Kate Duxberry.

Patrick Morrell (Blathwayt 2004)

We are delighted that Patrick married Maddie earlier this summer with a good show of ORs to help them with the big day: James Patterson, Tom Anastasi, Jonny Bowden, Nick Patterson, Patrick Morrell, Tom Morrell, Dan Westley and Alistair Crane.

David Coates (Blathwayt 2001)

Katie and David met in Weybridge at the end of 2012 and, having stumbled across the beautiful village of Lower Slaughter in the Cotswolds in 2013, subsequently decided to tie the knot there on 4th July 2017 at St Mary’s Church. Post wedding blues quickly subsided when the happy couple flew to the Island of Zakynthos, Greece for their honeymoon.

Epke Le Rutte (Mullens 2005) and Philippe Duterloo (Capel 2005)

It is with great pleasure that we would like to share the news of our marriage! The two-day sunflower-themed wedding on the 18th and 19th of August in the South of over the world. After the official marriage proceedings in the village of Laroque des Arcs, where Epke’s parents married 35 years ago, a spiritual ceremony was held in Eglise du Sacre Coeur in Cahors all on the 34th wedding anniversary of Philippe’s parents! In honour of our time at Reeds, we sang the Reed’s School Hymn. Old Reedonian, Ann Deckers, sang ‘We were just kids when we fell in love’ from Ed Sheeran’s song ‘Perfect’ which made many shed a tear, especially us thinking back to the time we fell in love at Reed’s in 2002.

Philippe is now working as an HR Manager at Shell’s HQ in The Hague, The Netherlands, and Epke is a France saw friends and family from all

veterinarian performing scientific research at the Department of Human Public Health of Erasmus Medical Center at Rotterdam University, where she just completed her PhD thesis on tropical infectious disease control.

Jeremy Stephens (Capel 2005)

On 8th October 2016, Courtney and I were married in Brighton Town Hall, followed by the reception in the quaint Barcombe Village Hall. Mark Stiles was best man, Alex Davies and Jake Jackson were ushers and Nikki Hamblin signed the register, so it was a Reed’s wedding party all round!
