Our Wedding

Our Story

We’re getting married! Please join us at St Matthews Church, Landscove (TQ13 7LY) on Saturday 30th May at 2:30pm. We’d love everyone to be seated by 2:15pm. After the ceremony, we’ll continue the celebrations with dinner and dancing at Anran, Tidwell Farm, Landscove (TQ13 7LY) - just a short stroll from the church. We'll party until midnight, it is a small village so we recommend booking your taxis in advance. Dress code: wear whatever makes you feel great! The walk between the church and venue is brief but best done in comfy shoes. While we absolutely love your little ones, we’re only able to accommodate children of the wedding party on the day. If you’re around on Sunday, we’d love to see you back at Anran for a BBQ, wedding debrief and a dip in the swimming pool (bring your swimwear!). Please let us know in your RSVP if you can join so we can plan food and drinks: drinks from 12pm, food from 1pm. We can’t wait to celebrate with you all!

Travel and taxis

There are lots of Airbnbs, hotels and campsites near the venue. Totnes is just a 15 minute taxi from the venue and also has lovely places to stay. Guests are not allowed to bring their own tents/vans to Anran, but they offer a glamping setup that has showers and toilets - message me or Josh for the info!

Accommodation

Having you at our wedding is enough for us! If you would like to give us a gift, we'd appreciate a little something towards our honeymoon in Japan, January 2027 (inspired by Jiro's Dreams of Sushi and champagne powder skiing). <a href="https://monzo.me/kathrynbates?h=QXsvB9" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Click here to add to the pot</a> - thanks so much! Lots of love, Kathryn and Josh xxx
