Our story
Hi, I’m Chester and I’m the most important member of the family, but I am told that there was a story to Vikki and Jonathan before I came along.
Apparently they met in 2009 whilst working at Comet (whatever that was). I assume the romance blossomed somewhere between the kettles and the vacuum cleaners.
For a few years there was a lot of travel, whilst Vikki worked in London and Jonathan spent half his life single-handedly funding the railway system, commuting back and forth.
Eventually they got me (after getting a house) and swapped travel to the capital for travelling around the country with me supporting Vikki’s work with CRUK whilst Jonathan spends his time on work calls, not giving me enough attention.
After 17 years, they’re finally getting married which I assume means that I get more treats.
The day
Tuesday, April 28th
Here is how our day will flow: The doors open at 12:15 PM, so come grab a drink and a seat and get comfortable! We will be walking down the aisle at 1:00 PM sharp to officially tie the knot. Once the 'I dos' are done, get ready for a full afternoon and evening of great food, entertainment and a few special touches. We’ll keep the party going all the way until midnight!
