Dress to impress!

We're celebrating our special day in style, and we'd love for our guests to join us looking fabulous and ready to party!

The official reception may end at midnight, but the fun doesn't have to!

Head downstairs to the cellar bar for our wedding after-party. Bring your own drinks, enjoy some music, and let the good times roll.

Don't forget, check-out is at 10am, so be sure to pace yourselves (or have your hangover cures ready!).

Food will be served throughout the wedding day.

We will be providing a wedding breakfast, and an evening menu. The menus for both will be confirmed and shared closer to the date.

If you have any allergies or dietary requirements, please inform Gavin or Louise as soon as possible.

We are thrilled to be capturing our special day with October James Photography.

We encourage you to share your own photos and videos from the wedding with us using the hashtag #GavAndLouSayIDo on social media.

We can't wait to see what you capture!

While we're busy soaking up every moment, we'd love for you to share your wedding day experiences with us using the hashtag #GavAndLouSayIDo.

We've chosen a venue with beautiful grounds and plenty to keep you entertained!

If you find you have time between the wedding ceremony and wedding breakfast, feel free to explore the gardens, relax and mingle, or enjoy the venue's games room.

For animal lovers, there is also an enclosed petting area with meerkats, goats, rabbits, alpacas, and, of course, the beautiful free-roaming peacocks.

Our ceremony will be held outdoors.

If the British weather dictates that we should have an indoor wedding, the ceremony will take place in the Banquet Hall.

We kindly ask that you don't outshine the bride by being fashionably late.

Guests should arrive at 1.30PM

The ceremony will begin at 2PM - please don't be late!

Our big day will draw to a close at midnight (boo!).

However, all is not lost! There is limited space for the 'The Cellar' after party, more details to follow soon.

When arriving at Hockwold Hall you will be directed through the beautiful main house to the gardens where our ceremony will take place.

The ceremony will begin at 2PM so please ensure that you arrive at the venue by 1.30PM.
