FAQs

Question

What should I wear?

Answer

The dress-code is cocktail or semi-formal. For inspo, think - elevated garden party attire... Things to avoid: - Probably safest for the ladies to avoid wearing whites/off-whites. - We would not recommend wearing stilettos due to the ceremony being in a garden, so probably lean more towards chunkier heels or sandals. This is a very special day for us, and we look forward to seeing all of our favourite people, all dressed up and looking their best :)

Question

A note on gifts...

Answer

Your presence at our wedding is the greatest gift of all. However, should you wish to honour us with a gift, a wishing well will be available at the wedding reception for best wishes and contributions (for our next chapter - honeymoon and everything that comes next?) We have also created a small registry here: https://www.myregistry.com/wedding-registry/will-mclean-and-rosie-leigh-wellington-wellington-region/4936596

Our wedding ceremony is (hopefully) outdoors, canape/drinks hour outdoors, but our reception will be inside. All weather dependent!
