Can I bring a plus one?

Question

Can I take photos during the ceremony?

Answer

We are planning an 'unplugged' ceremony, so we kindly ask that you keep phones and cameras away and on silent during this time. We will have a photographer and videographer capturing it all - so you can relax and enjoy the moment with us. After that please take as many pictures as you like!

Question

What food and drinks will be provided?

Answer

After the ceremony, some drinks and canapés will be served, followed by a two-course buffet-style dinner. Evening food will also be available. A selection of drinks will be served with dinner, and thereafter drinks can be purchased at the bar throughout the evening. Please note, no external food or drinks can be brought on site. Please confirm any dietary requirements and drink preferences in your RSVP.

Question

What time should I arrive?

Answer

Our ceremony starts at 1:30pm, so please arrive in plenty of time to be seated. The 'Gin Terrace' will be open from 12:30pm, so there is somewhere to gather, mingle with other guests and grab a drink beforehand. If you are arriving for the evening celebration only, then you are welcome to join from 6:30pm.

Question

Answer

Wherever you like, there is no seating plan! Just be sure to leave any reserved seats free.
