LOVE blossomed in the office for a couple who work for the Shuttle/Times and News.

Graphic designer Matt Walton has worked for the Kidderminster newspaper for six years and Michelle Sireshuk, who previously worked for a sister publication in Stourbridge, joined the Kidderminster office last October.

They were married on the beach at Sandals Dunns River, Jamaica.

Matt, who joined the company at the Worcester Evening News office when he was 19, is the only son of Jenny Walton, of Evesham.

Deputy advertising manager Michelle, of Wolverley, is the eldest daughter of Richard Cox, of Devon, and Bernice Cox, of Kidderminster.

The couple held a reception at the resort.

Matt said: "As well as a perfect wedding day, we certainly had a lot to celebrate while we were away.

"We both had birthdays - I was 39 and Michelle was 36. We swam with dolphins and I achieved an ambition to become a qualified scuba diver."

The couples' home will be in Worcester.
