When is the RSVP deadline?
31st of August 2024.
What should I wear?
Please no white dresses or navy suits.
Will the events be indoors or outdoors?
The main event will be in the large threshing barn, but the garden spaces are stunning and it will be October, so might be worth bringing a coat.
Am I allowed to bring a plus one?
We'd like to keep things intimate, so please only bring the people named in your invite.
Can we bring our children?
While we love your little ones, our wedding will be an adults-only event. We appreciate you making arrangements ahead of time and leaving the kids at home so you can celebrate with us!
Can I take photos at the wedding?
We'd like an "unplugged" ceremony and our photographer ninja has this bit covered, but take as many as you like afterwards.
How will we be informed of any changes?
We'll let you know by email if any key details are changed on the website.
I have more questions, how do I contact you?
Just in case you've lost our numbers, they are on the next section.
