Your presence is present enough, but if you would like to contribute to our dream honeymoon our bank details are below:
Confetti
We need confetti, grown from the gardens of our nearest and dearest. Over the summer we invite you to dry your flowers to help make our confetti toss extra special.
Garden Games
Do you have any garden games gathering dust in the shed? To make the most of the enormous field at Kingswood we would love it if you could bring some garden games to have fun with: football, cricket, bowls... the more the merrier!
If you would like to help with either of these things or anything else please let us know.
