We’re Getting Married!

Programme

Friday 2nd February

Set-up day! A massive thanks to everybody who has volunteered to help us with the venue set-up.

We have access to the lodge from 2pm on Friday 2 February and the set-up crew is invited to arrive at this time.

If you are not helping set up or staying at the lodge then we ask that you stay clear while all the bees are busy, unless by prior arrangement to see Trude and Jan.

If you would like to help out and haven't been in contact yet then flick us a [text or email].

Guests who are staying at the lodge please refer to section [staying at the lodge]
