How It Started

◆

Amelia was volunteering at the botanical garden. Rowan came for a lecture on moss and stayed four hours. Neither of them can explain it any better than that. We're getting married in the same glasshouse, which feels like the only sensible option.

Formal, in greens, stone and muted neutrals if you are choosing. The glasshouse holds its heat in the afternoon and cools quickly after dark, so layers are wise.

Travel notes

The garden's main car park closes to the public at 1:30 PM and is ours from 2:00. The paths to the glasshouse are gravel but level and step-free throughout — please let us know on your RSVP if you'd like a golf-cart lift from the gate.
