Hattie & Krys
13.03.2027 - Sudeley Castle
… the day Hattie thought she was on a photo shoot
You are invited to the wedding of
Harriet Gwyneth Jenkins and Krysztof John Szota
On the evening of 13th March 2027, you are invited into a night woven from candlelight, shadow and centuries of secrets.
Within the ancient walls of Sudeley Castle, deep in the Cotswolds, the ceremony will unfold. This is where Katherine Parr, the last queen of Henry VIII, rests within St Mary's Chapel. Here two are to be wed in England's only privately owned castle to hold an English queen upon its grounds.
Picture long banquet tables laden with feasting and the warm haze of a hundred candles: a castle reborn for one unforgettable night.
Black tie is required, dark and rich in tone. This is a night for adults alone, with every goblet and stein raised at your hosts' expense, and two nights' rest on castle grounds already partly funded.
The story so far
From the first rugby tackle outside of Primavera before words were spoken, through the hail storm atop Scafell, to north of the arctic circle and back again, and beyond Vivaldi in Vienna, they did it all in under a year.
When you know, you know.
