ALMOST 150 family and friends flocked to the Bromsgrove Labour Club to help a Charford couple celebrate their golden wedding anniversary.
Jim and Pauline Warman, of Collis Close, were surrounded by their nearest and dearest at the Worcester Road venue to mark 50 years of wedded bliss.
"The party was brilliant, it was a really lovely night," said Jim.
The couple met in 1950 while walking in Bromsgrove town centre and tied the knot three years later at St Godwald's Church in Aston Fields. It was the same day as the Queen's Coronation Ceremony and Jim chose his brother as best man.
A former soldier, Jim left the army in 1949 before spending the rest of his working life at Garringtons in Aston Fields. Pauline worked in the clothing factory nearby.
The couple moved into their Charford home in 1954, where they spent almost 50 years and had two children, a girl and a boy. They now have two grandchildren and four great-grandchildren.
