We are very much looking forward to spending time with all of you over the wedding weekend. To help you keep track of the fun and excitment, here are the approx timings for key events:
14:00 PM, Stubton Hall Music Room
We're getting married! We promise to keep it short and sweet - much like Laura.
It would probably be a good idea to get to Stubton before 2pm, unless you want to walk in with Laura.
The registrar has recommended that people take their seat by 1:45pm.
14:30 - 16:00 PM, Stubton Hall Chocolate Bar
After the formalities, canapés and drinks will be served in Stubton's Chocolate Bar, although we are hoping the weather will allow us to go outside in the sun.
This time will also give you the chance to mix with the newly crowned 'Herberts'!
16:00 - 19:00 PM, Stubton Hall Orangery
Make sure you don't spoil your appetite because at approx 4PM we will be making our way into Stubton's stunning Orangery to have a four-course meal (and a lot more wine).
Following this, we will hear some short thank yous and speeches from the wedding party, including what is bound to be a collection of lies from the best men (let's hope they don't bottle it).
19:30 - 00:00 AM, Stubton Hall Orangery
Now it's time to really get on it! After some of the tables have been cleared away the Orangery will be transformed into a dance floor ready for the majority to embarrass themselves (you know who you are).
We have arranged a DJ and live band to play a couple of sets, so there should be music for everyone, even those born before the 80s! Stubton will also be putting on an evening BBQ for those who haven't eaten enough already, while we also plan to have a sweet shop set-up for the 'kids' and, in particular, Ben.
08:30 - 10:00 AM, Stubton Hall Conservatory
For those of you staying overnight at Stubton Hall (limited availability, contact Ben & Laura for info/costs), you will receive a complimentary breakfast buffet on the Sunday morning.
Although we have no idea how anyone will be getting up at half past 8 after all that drinking, it will be nice to see everyone in the morning and gossip about those that made fools of themselves the night before.
For those of you staying near to Stubton, you are more than welcome to come join us for breakfast but you will need to arrange this in advance with the venue. Breakfast is charged at £12 per adult and £8 for children under 10.
