As much as we love your little ones, this will be an adults-only celebration as our venue is unsuitable for young children. We hope this advanced notice will allow you a much-deserved night off to celebrate with us!

Unfortunately, we are at capacity, which means we are sadly unable to accommodate additional guests. However, we do look forward to celebrating with you on the day!

Your presence at our wedding is present enough! However, for friends and family who have expressed an interest, we’ve created an online registry which can be found through the Registry tab at the top of this website.

You are encouraged to take as many photos / videos as you would like (and we would love for you to share them with us)! However, we will have a professional photographer to help document the day so we kindly ask that you do not take pictures / videos during the ceremony.
