Question

What about wedding gifts?

Answer

In both Turkish and Japanese weddings, it’s common to give the couple a small gift in cash or a Çeyrek Altın (a small gold coin). In Japan, this is traditionally placed in a special envelope called a 'Shugibukuro'. The typical amount is around £50–150. After the cake cutting, we’ll be holding a pinning ceremony, a fun tradition where guests can pin gold coins or money to a red ribbon on the bride, or hand the envelopes as a gift. Please do not feel obligated, as your presence is more than enough!

Question

What is the temperature like in late March?

Answer

In late March, Pangbourne can be quite cool, with temperatures typically around 10°C, rising to 15°C on warmer days or dropping to around 5°C. Showers are possible, so it’s a good idea to bring a coat or umbrella. The wedding ceremony and reception will take place indoors, so you’ll be comfortable regardless of the weather.
