The Afterparty
Sunday 30th August
The Big Fat Greek Afterparty
From midday at The Old Rectory.
The celebrations continue into the bank holiday with our Greek-themed barbecue from 12pm. As a little nod to where Sam and I got engaged in Skopelos, expect gyros, Bloody Marys, sunshine (hopefully) and one final get-together before the weekend ends. We'd love to see you there.
Dress code: blue and white.
Location
The car park is 200 yards away on the High Street, just north of Willow Lane — directions here. The reception is a 30-second walk from the church — no transport needed between venues.
