Planning for dietary needs
With a bit of planning, dietary needs are easier to handle. A few tips:
- Confirm the van can park at the venue
- Ask about dietary needs on the invitation
- Let us know if anyone has coeliac disease
- Not every evening guest eats: ask us how many to plan for
Most couples serve evening food between about 8pm and 9:30pm, once the first dance is done.
A string of lights by the hatch makes a great photo.
