We cannot wait to celebrate with you

You are warmly welcome to arrive from 13.30 so you have time for a drink and a hello before we start.
14:30 Wedding Ceremony
Mingle, dinner and the party will follow after, all in the same place, so once you are here you can relax and enjoy the day.
02:00 The night ends
Dress Code
Semi formal. And if you can, with an autumn touch.
Think suits, dresses, smart separates in a bit of seasonal colour or texture like deep greens, burgundy, rust, navy etc. We’d love an autumn vibe but if thats not in your wardrobe, come in something you feel happy and fancy in.
Clothes and colours to avoid: Brown suit and white dress..
Good To Know
The ceremony will take place outside on the lawns if the weather allows. This time in September the weather can swing either way. It might feel like proper late summer with sunshine and warm temperatures, or it could be crisp and a bit chilly, especially later in the afternoon and evening. We will have a large wardrobe on site with plenty of space for coats, bags, and any extra layers.
Take all the photos you like the rest of the day but during the ceremony we would like to request a phone free moment to give Alex the photographer his time to shine!
Gifts
Your presence is the greatest gift for us. If you would like to mark our day with a gift, we would be very grateful for a contribution towards our honeymoon. Any contribution can be swished to the bride’s father Peter Mild on 070-552 62 22 in connection with the wedding.
Adults Only
We love your little ones, but this will be an adults only celebration.
We hope you can take the chance to relax, enjoy the day properly, and celebrate with us. Thank you so much for understanding.

At swedish weddings, toastmasters help keep things running smoothly, they plan the order of speeches, keep the energy up during dinner, and make sure everyone has a good time. We’ve asked these two legends, dear friends of ours, to take on the role and we’re so happy to have them as part of our day.
