If you are in Falkenberg the day before the wedding, please join us at a get-together at Sandra's parent's house (Address: Ryssgärde Bergsgården 201, 311 65 Vessigebro). More information to follow as the date approaches.
The ceremony starts at 1pm at Askome Church, approximately a 20-minute drive to the reception venue. We will arrange transportation (via chartered bus) to and from the church for those requiring assistance (please indicate when you RSVP and we'll be in touch with further details).
More information will be available as the wedding date approaches.
Reception will follow at Hertigen manor house in Falkenberg central. Prepare yourself for an afternoon/evening of traditional Swedish fika, outdoor (hopefully) games (wedding attire appropriate), followed by dinner, drinks and dancing.
Swedish weddings traditionally include "toastmasters" who act like an emcee for the evening. It is encouraged for guests to give short speeches during the dinner (these could also include songs, poems, videos, etc). If you would like to make a speech during the dinner, please reach out to the toastmasters (to be updated).
The greatest gift we could ask for is your attendance. We know many of you are making a very long trip to celebrate with us, and we don't want anyone to feel obligated to give a gift.
If you do decide to give a gift, we (will be) registered at John Lewis. As our tiny London flat has limited room for gifts, we would also greatly appreciate cash gift towards the next stage in our life.
What should I wear?
We encourage "cocktail attire" - a little dressed up but not too formal.
