The Hawcroft Wedding Fest!

Reception

Our Wedding

Katie and James met on Tinder in January 2022. Within a week of chatting, they went on their first date at The George pub in Kirton in Lindsey, where Katie was living at the time. Typically, they both left it too late to book the crazy golf in York… and if anyone knows how bad Katie is at golf, it was probably for the best.A few months later, Katie went travelling to Thailand for just over two weeks in April. During that time, James and Katie realised this was becoming something more than just a fling.James eventually moved into Katie’s house in Kirton, commuting around an hour each way to work. Together, they began looking towards a more permanent future at Arglam.During this period, James secured a position at Cranwick’s PLC, ticking off a bucket-list dream of becoming a Fieldman. Katie also made a move within the insurance sector.At the end of 2023, Buddy — a working cocker spaniel puppy — joined the Wells-Hawcroft household, bringing with him countless adventures and a fair amount of mayhem.James and Katie have since become big-time cruisers, exploring the world in style. On their second cruise together, while on the sun deck in Barcelona, James decided it was the perfect moment to get down on one knee. With sunsets, a full moon, and a little bit of wind, Katie said yes.Join us as we continue our journey, bring our lives together, and finish our home at Arglam. We can’t wait to celebrate our partnership, friendship, and love with all the people we care about.
