Thank you for visiting our wedding website! We're really excited to share our wedding day with you, and we've compiled some information to hopefully make planning your attendance as easy as possible.
You'll find information on getting to the venue, booking nearby hotels, on-the-day timings, and more. Please do make sure you RSVP and - most importantly - leave us a few song recommendations in your form when you do so.
Looking forward to seeing you in September!

Honeymoon Registry
Your presence at our wedding is more than enough of a present, and we’re very lucky to have everything we need in our home. If you do wish to gift us something, we would love for you to contribute to some of the cool activities we have planned for our honeymoon!
We have booked a two week trip to Kenya and Zanzibar in January 2026, where we’ll be spending 7 days on safari in Samburu and the Masai Mara lounging with lions and eavesdropping on elephants, before we fly out to the beautiful island of Zanzibar for 7 days by the beach.
​​
Please note - while we have split the honeymoon fund into specific experiences, all links will redirect you to a Paypal link. We did consider many of the wedding registry services available online, but found that all took a percentage of your gift as a processing fee. To avoid you being needlessly charged, we've set up a pot you can contribute to on PayPal.
​
There will also be a wedding card box on the day.
​
If you do choose to gift online, please don't forget to include your name and the experience you'd like to contribute towards so we can say a heartfelt thank you!

FAQs
What's the dress code?
​The dress code is cocktail attire. By that we mean; a suit and tie for men, and a dress or jumpsuit for women.
We would also love for anyone wearing heels to bring a comfy pair of trainers for the evening so we can all dance without worrying about achey feet. There will be storage provided for your shoes upon arrival.​
​
Will children be allowed at the wedding?
Please be aware that the wedding will be an adults-only occasion. We hope for parents of little ones the advance notice means you are still able to attend.
​
Can I bring a plus one?
We'd love to invite as many people as could reasonably fit in a generously sized room, ​but we are only able to accommodate our planned guest list. Guest names are included on the addressed envelope containing your invite.
​​
What time should I arrive?
You are welcome to arrive at the venue from 1pm. The bar will be open on arrival. Please ensure you arrive no later than 1.30pm to ensure you are seated in the ceremony room on time.
You can find a full timeline of the day here.
​
Will the wedding be indoors?
The ceremony will be held in the beautiful ceremony room at Larkspur Lodge. Weather permitting, the drinks reception will follow the ceremony outside on the terrace and lawn area.
​
Will the venue be able to accommodate my dietary and accessibility requirements?
Almost definitely! The team at Larkspur Lodge will do their best to meet any dietary or accessibility requirements you may have. They will also be on hand to assist on the day. Please do include mention of any dietary and/or accessibility requirements you may have in your RSVP.​
​
Do you have a wedding registry?
We're very lucky to already have everything we need, and so your presence is present enough! However, for family and friends who have asked for gift ideas, we'd appreciate any contributions to our honeymoon, which you can read more about here.
​
Are you changing your names?
In case you missed it from the website URL, we're going to be the Hardy-Quicks!
Yes, we also think it's very funny.​

Please get in touch with either Sam or Emma directly!
