Horizon’s Ben Hirst ties the knot with new wife Tracy

The Team at Horizon would like to congratulate our Joint Managing Director Ben Hirst and his new Spanish Wife Tracy Muñiz Ryan, after they tied the knot last weekend.

The wedding was held in the stunning Palacio de Soñanes hotel, set in the Cantabrian mountains south of Santander in Spain.Horizon Platforms' Director Ben Hirst and New Wife Tracy

After meeting on a Safari holiday in Kenya 5 years ago, the couple, who live in Yorkshire, opted for a mix of both a traditional Spanish and a very English style of wedding, with the Groom making a very brave and surprisingly fluent attempt at delivering his speech in both languages.

Tracy has had to accept that Ben does have another love and over the years, has grown very fond of Horizon Platforms.   As a complete surprise she had shipped in from the US a scale model of a JLG 2646ES, to be placed on the top of the wedding cake – see attached photo.

Ben and Tracy returned from Spain on Monday, but look forward to their honeymoon later in the year
