Invitations are in the post!

Chris has been home for the last 2 weeks and apart from exciting things like MOVING INTO OUR NEW HOME....we have also managed to finish up all the invitations and put them in the post. Hurray!

So, you're probably here because you want to RSVP online ....great! Here's how you do it:
  • On the left-hand column there is a little image that says "RSVP here" Click on it.
  • You'll be taken to a questionnaire.
  • Fill in your details, including guests and children.
  • You have the option of pre-selecting your main course (see menu below)
  • If you also want to pre-select a main course for your guest, you can either fill in the form again OR indicate their preference in the guest box when you enter their details.
And that's all there is to it....easy peasy lemon squeezy!
