Then in the evening an adult only party in a marquee, starting with a formal sit down meal and finishing with a band.

Anyway I saw this idea....somewhere in my cyber space travels....to do a photo booth style strip with us holding cards with what we needed to say turned into into a fridge magnet so all our family & friends would have our wedding date to hand, genius! .

Then a trip to Hobbycraft the following day to purchase spray glue, knife, magnetic A4 sheets and I was away......production line type working commenced. I also made an envelope sized backing which I attached the magnets to and then into envelopes.
