As I have said in previous communications these are difficult and unprecedented times…

Marriage is all about a whole lifetime together… so postponing your wedding, or altering the sequence of events won’t be the end of the world.

​

Love has no boundaries… The most important thing is that couple who love one another are able to show their love in whatever way they can and that we can make it special..

​

In 3-6 months time all of this may well be behind us, but in the meantime we will do  anything we can for you to have your perfect day.. even if it comes in stages… 

​

Thankyou for sticking by us…  We won’t let you down.
