WELCOME

×

We are very excited to invite you once again to celebrate our big day in the beautiful landscape of Somerset. We will be tying the knot in the old tradition and would love for you to join us. 

Please take a look at the various sections for guidance and RSVP either directly to Hannah - enquiries@hannahrickards.co.uk or Thor- thorsever@hotmail.com or through the link on the invite.

The dress code is Summer Formal. Something sharp for the guys and glam for the girls, headwear is encouraged if you like!

We advise bringing additional suitable footwear. The barn has a solid floor for dancing but due to the rural location, conditions underfoot elsewhere will be variable depending on the weather.
