Gift - Honeymoon Fund!

We know it’s not tradition, it’s not the way it’s done, but instead of a wedding list, we’d like a bit of sun!
We would appreciate your help to send us on our way, a contribution to our honeymoon in a land quite far away!

Story

Well we were both getting over recent separations and I don’t think either of us wanted to settle down! After meeting in the local pub Simon didn’t really stop trying to date Gemma and although she likes to think it took a while it didn’t! After a drunken first kiss in Wagamama’s the rest is history. Here we are nearly 14 years later, getting married (finally) having raised Ruby, now 17! and having Finley who is now 11!
It’s about time we tied the knot and gave you all a good party to help us celebrate the last 14 years and hopefully many years ahead of us as husband and wife. Whoop whoop!

Travel

Note

Travel and transport

For day guests you will need to make your way to the West Bridgeford Registry Office (Bridgford Hall, NG2 6AT). Transport however from the wedding to the reception will be provided so you just need to arrange transport at the end of evening from the Canal House (48-52 Canal Street, Nottingham, NG1 7EH).
For the after party/evening guests if you are driving the canal house is in Nottingham City Centre so plenty of parking nearby. Taxis can also drop off and pick up outside the building.
