A COUPLE have celebrated 40 years of marriage by travelling to Graceland.

Kevin and Moira Mason, of Vicarage Road, Catterick Garrison, renewed their wedding vows in the chapel at the former home of Elvis Presley, in Memphis.

Mrs Mason, 58, a customer advisor at the Yorkshire Building Society, in Richmond, said: "I think 40 years is quite an achievement in this day and age, especially as we were 18 when we got married.

"My husband, who is a big Elvis fan, re-proposed to me last year and said he would like to take the whole family to Graceland.

"The wedding dress was the exact replica of the one I got married in."

Mr Mason, 58, is a police community support office at Catterick Garrison.
