Wedding of the Year Explained

Ok whats going on here isn't he/she foreign?

In short yes, Chris is English and Emily is American. We thought about it, and we both really wanted to celebrate with all our friends and family. However there seemed to be a tiny problem.... the Atlantic, so with our clever engineer brains we came up with a cunning plan - 2 weddings! (Well 1 wedding and a reception in the UK) Having produced the budget spreadsheet we're not sure how cunning it actually is, but it's sure going to be fun.

We would absolutely love you all to attend both receptions, but if that isn't possible hopefully you'll be able to make one in the appropriate country (or inappropriate country - we would love that too!). If you are thinking about travelling we have provided some information on this web page for you to help plan your trip. If you have any additional questions please do not hesitate to contact either of us.
