Q & A
For all our friends and family who have lots of questions, please check out our Q & A first!
When is the RSVP deadline?
Please RSVP by March 20th, so we can have an accurate headcount :)
What time should I arrive?
The wedding ceremony starts at 1pm, please arrive to be seated between 12:30 and 12:45pm.
Where should I park?
There is plenty of free parking at Hutton Hall. Please park here and walk through the grounds to the church ceremony. There is some limited parking outside of the church, though it can be quite muddy!
Can I bring a date?
Please refer to your invitation. While we love meeting new friends, we would love to celebrate this occasion with the ones who are already close to our hearts.
Are kids welcome?
We love kids at weddings but we're limiting the number of guests, so please refer to your invitation.
Is it okay to take pictures with our phones and cameras during the wedding?
Please hold back from taking photos during the ceremony; our wonderful photographer and videographer will be there to capture the memories so that you can stay in the moment with us!
What if I have a dietary restriction?
Once you RSVP, there's an option to let us know about dietary needs so that we can cater to your requirements.
Is there a gifts registry?
We don’t have a registry but if you were thinking of giving a gift to help us on our way, some money towards our honeymoon would really make our day!
Whom should I call with questions?
Before the day of the wedding, please call us on 07583328908 with any questions.
I am coming from out of town. Where should I stay?
We've included a list of hotels under the travel section of this website.
Can I pay with card at the bar?
The bar is card only!
Story
Courtney and I met by chance. He was living in Kingston for university and I was bartending in a club in Kingston that everyone from his university went to. It was serendipitous but we didn't know it at the time. The moment he had my number we spoke every night on the phone and everything that was my favourite turned out to be his too - ha!
Tidbits
How did you propose?
It was on a hilltop temple overlooking the botanical gardens in Kew Gardens. We had walked up there to see the view. Miles was asleep in his pram next to us and it seemed like the perfect time. So I asked Jay if she wanted a bottle of water and I ran all the way out of Kew Gardens and to the car to get the ring. Came back, heart racing and that’s when I proposed.
What was your most memorable date?
The Valentine's Day dinner at the Athens Gate Hotel whilst on holiday in Greece. It was a lovely warm evening and we could see the Acropolis lit up from our table. It made the perfect backdrop! 🏛️
What's your favorite activity together?
Before we had Miles and Amelia, it would have been going on weekend breaks and exploring new cities together. Now it's cheese and wine nights with a movie!
Your funniest moment together
The time Courtney set off the alarm at a really cool car garage and museum because we couldn't read German and thought we were just opening a door. We had to run and escape the scene of the crime!
Where are you going for your honeymoon?
Anywhere with beautiful beaches that we can enjoy as a family.
What's the best meal you have eaten together?
Less a meal and more a restaurant since we tried so much of the menu - Ristorante La Vittoria. It was this tiny restaurant next to the Vatican and it served wine by the pitcher with the freshest pasta we've ever tasted. When we went back the second time Courtney ordered lasagne and the waiter said it was a meal for babies, we spent ages laughing about it!

What's important to us. And that's spending time with the people we love most. (You all!)
A life goal of ours
We want our kids to see a really happy marriage filled with lots of laughter.
