Kind of. Traditionally, a registry existed to set a married couple up in a new home, and the truth is, we have plenty of stuff. What we can never have enough of though is experiences. That's why we created a honeymoon pot for anyone that wants to generously bestow us with a gift. It's not expected though. We're just happy you can be there with us to celebrate.
Our honeymoon pot is here ā just pick an experience for our honeymoon and we'll raise a glass to you while we're having the time of our lives!

We carefully audited all the wedding traditions to make sure we made mindful decisions for our wedding. We even questioned the need for a wedding but decided that it would be too much of a shame not to get all our favourite people packed into a barn for one day. Lucky us!
Marion will be walking herself down the aisle (with the help of her flower girls), the speeches will be limited, and we'll be watching you do your first dance instead of making you watch us!

This is a hard one. We'd love to have everyone's little humans at the wedding but we've left the marriage thing to our late thirties/early forties and most people we know now have a handful of kids each. We'd need to have a separate wedding to invite them all, which we're definitely not filthy rich enough for (yet).
That being said, you'll probably see a handful of kids knocking around. Those are Mark's nephews and Marion's goddaughter and flower girls.

Heck yes! Yes please. We'd love to play your favourite tunes. Let us know in the RSVP (there's a section for song requests) or drop us an email at mmmaclaine@gmail.com if you think of something further down the line.

We're looking into setting up a live stream of the wedding so loved ones that can't make it or are only coming to celebrate in the evening will still be able to attend virtually. Let us know if you fancy it by emailing mmmaclaine@gmail.com and we'll make sure we send you more info closer to the time.

Our guest list is pretty small by wedding standards and we both have sprawling families so we've had to limit plus ones at this stage. Once we get the RSVPs and have a better sense of numbers, we may be able to open the invitations up to plus ones. Stay tuned!

The question Marion would need an instant answer to. There's no official dress code but you know, wear the usual wedding attire ā formal, semi-formal, smart casual, casual smart, black tie, green tie, any colour tie, or indeed, no tie at all. We'll be dressing up, but it's our wedding day, so no surprises there. You may want to consider the weather when you're planning your outfit. You know the drill in the UK ā expected the unexpected weather-wise and dress appropriately. For mid-May, that means it could be hot and sunny, or chilly and wet, or both. Good luck!
Most importantly, if you're planning on wearing heels, Marion highly recommends wedges or block heels to save you from sinking into the grass or, worse yet, ruining your stilettos.

We're not sending paper invitations so if you've received a link to this website from us then consider yourself invited! You're welcome!
