Very small do started about 30 people(I'm used to Irish wedding 200+)
We were told a casual affair. Wear whatever u are comfortable in. Please don't bring presents (as u being there is all we want. So cute)
Little registry office. Then we all were told to bring Oyster card.
Off we all went on the train bride as well (who forgot oyster so we had to p*y for her lol)
To other side of london for gorgeous dinner. And then return to Kensington roof gardens (wow amazing venue) champers glowing freely all nite.
I was worried at idea of this but
Absolutely loved the whole day probably best wedding I went to ever so relaxed. Everyone on trains stopping chatting to us all as all dress up. Great atmosphere.
To be honest more should travel like this on wedding day. People were so kind everywhere we went.
That is a fab day you had claire! The roof gardens are great! o/

Sure it wasn't a rat, with a somewhat bushy tail ?
