There is a photo of a wedding which apparently took place in 1907, taken by the same photographer and with the same design and logo, here:

There is a George Henry BOTT who is a photographer in Wiltshire in 1921. He was born in Burton-on-Trent. In 1911 he is a hotel proprietor at 18 Midland Road, Derby. He married Rose May SPENCER in Burton in 1899 and the birth of their eldest child Lily was registered 1901 Q4 Burton-on-Trent.

I can't find the couple in 1901.

From Dave's link - I see that Dorothy was a bridesmaid at the wedding and the photo of the trio appears to have been taken at the same time - 1907.

Or have I misinterpreted the report?

Have completed a fast read of the report , Dave. A great find  :)

It's a great piece of social history. I loved the wedding present list!
