Bride in tears over surprise guests

Elanwy Evans-Carpenter, from Glaman, sadly lost her father Linden Evans in 2021 and her mother Yolanda Evans suddenly in 2023.

While getting married to her partner Matthew Edwards-Carpenter at Oldwalls in Gower, Elanwy's maid of honour Ffion Thomas pulled out all the stops for an incredibly touching surprise.

Linden was the co-founder of the Côr Meibion Dyffryn Aman choir in Ammanford, which he began 35 years ago and which Elanwy describes as a big part of his life.

As a touching surprise, Ffion organised for the Côr Meibion Dyffryn Aman choir to attend and perform at Elanwy's wedding so that her father's voice could still be heard on her big day.
