We know it’s a long time away but we really can’t wait to see you there.

Love Ann-Katrin & Tom

Why the Lakes

Where it all began back in July 2008!

As many of you know, we met in Grasmere in between the beautiful mountains and lakes in 2008. After reconnecting again in 2016, we have loved coming back here to climb a mountain or two and it seemed like the perfect place to start the next chapter of our lives together.

Wedding Day

Whoop!

Only a few weeks to go until our wedding day! We are truly getting excited…

We put together a few more details of the day for you here.

Please also remind us of your menu choices below.

Bar

We are very much looking forward to celebrating with you and much appreciate the far distances some of you will travel.

This is why we decided to have an open bar for all wine, beer, prosecco and non-alcoholic drinks, until our budget runs out.

Any drinks not on that list may still be on sale from the bar.

Outfit

Tom will wear a suit and Ann-Katrin a dress. Please feel free to wear anything you will be comfortable in on the day.

When it comes to shoes, please keep in mind that the venue is a farm and stilettos might not be the best option.

Gifts

As we said before, your presence is our greatest gift for us.

However, if you are insisting on giving us a present, we would love a contribution to future hiking adventures rather than any objects that we may or may not need.

We already have everything we need in our little ‘Cottage’ in South East London.
