FAQs

Question

When should I RSVP by?

Answer

Please RSVP by 16th Jan 2026 by clicking the RSVP tab above. We need to provide our suppliers with an exact number of guests by a certain date and therefore, unfortunately, if you do not RSVP in time, we will miss celebrating with you!

Question

What time should I arrive at the ceremony?

Answer

The ceremony will take place at Dodford Manor in the Mortain barn. Please arrive at 2:00pm to be seated for a 2:30pm start.

Question

Are kids welcome?

Answer

We love your little ones, but sadly we can’t fit everyone at the ceremony. If your child is invited, their name will be on the envelope. They’re more than welcome to join the evening reception starting at 8:00 pm - and if you can, arrange a babysitter so you can let your hair down and dance the night away!

Question

Can I bring a date?

Answer

Due to limited space, we are only able to accommodate those guests formally invited on your wedding invitation. If you recieve a plus one, they will appear under your name when you RSVP. Thank you for understanding!

Question

Cant make it?

Answer

You will be dearly missed! If you cannot make the wedding, please let us know as soon as possible and RSVP using the "Not attending" option so we can plan accordingly.

Question

Can I bring a gift?

Answer

Having you celebrate with us is the best gift of all. But if you’d like to give a little something, we’d love your help topping up our honeymoon fund—because cocktails taste better on a beach than in our kitchen.

Question

Can I take pictures during the wedding?

Answer

We have hired professionals that will be taking photos during the ceremony, so we kindly ask that you keep any phones/cameras away during this time. However, following the ceremony we strongly encourage our guests to take pictures/videos during the reception and post on social media and tag us! You can even use our hashtag #Cleary2026
