We would be glad of your company
The day itself
Nine years, one question
How we got here
We met on a wet Tuesday in a bookshop that has since closed, argued about a novel neither of us had finished, and have been arguing happily ever since.
In June we are gathering the people we love on a hillside in Somerset, under a very old arch, and making the whole thing official.

So you know what to expect
Order of the day
To be seen, and known, and loved anyway. That is the whole of it.
A reading we have chosenOne or two practicalities
Good to know
What to wear
Summer formal. The terrace is stone and the lawn is grass, so heels are a gamble worth considering.
Staying over
There are rooms at the house and a handful of inns in the village. We have held a few of both until April.
Gifts
Your being there is the gift. If you insist, there is a small fund towards the honeymoon.
