Please RSVP before March 20th 2025.

We want all of you to feel as beautiful and comfortable as you can, but please keep a semi-formal attire. Suits for the gents and dresses, jumpsuits or suits for the ladies would be ideal. Please don't wear shorts, denim or sneakers.

Our wonderful venue has rooms and suites available at a special rate for our guests. Check out the 'Travel and accommodation' tab for more details on this and other accommodation in the area.

Of course, and we can't wait to see your little ones in their best fashion! The Retreat has a playground, tennis courts, wellies to borrow and bikes to hire too to keep your little and not so little ones entertained.

Unfortunately not - We would love to have your undivided attention during our ceremony, but fear not our Registrar will give a few moments before and after the ceremony for you to take all the pictures you wish!

To put it simply, yes!

Yes, you can use the Spa changing room facilities and book yourself a hair appointment on site if needed. If you're staying at the Retreat, check in is at 3pm for the day of the wedding so we highly suggest you take advantage of these facilities as timing to get fully ready might be a bit tight.

The ceremony is scheduled to begin at 3:30pm, we kindly request all guests to be seated at 3:20pm.

The ceremony and wedding breakfast will be held indoors, whilst, weather permitting, the cocktail hour will be outdoors on the beautiful grounds of the Retreat.

The last train for London Paddington is at 23:34 from Newbury, this will get you back into the city at 01:19 with one change at Reading. The last direct train is the 21:56 from Newbury. Also, let us know and we'll look if there are any other guests to share a taxi with!

The groom has a horrible track record of answering his phone, so your best bet is Maria Chiara at +447541982275.
