Alice&James
Saturday 19 June 2027
St Mary’s Church & Manor Barn · Lower Slaughter
One reply for your whole household. Please let us know by 1 May 2027.
Everything you need is here. Keep this link: it works even without a signal, once opened.
Please be seated by 12.45. The lane is single-track — park at the village hall (5 minutes’ walk) rather than on the verge. Biodegradable confetti only, thrown outside the porch.
A coach leaves the church at 14.15. Parking is on the grass by the barn — fine in June, less so if it rains, so leave the low cars at the village hall.
Bacon rolls, coffee and the debrief. Come whenever, we’ll be there until one.
Hats very welcome, white is Alice’s. One friendly warning: the churchyard path is gravel and the barn opens onto grass, so stilettos will not enjoy the day.
In the village, a four-minute walk from the church. Nine rooms, ask for the wedding rate.
from £165 a night
ALICEJAMES · 10% offStow-on-the-Wold, 10 minutes by car. Good if you are making a weekend of it.

Pods and pitches, 15 minutes. The friends’ solution.
from £48 a night
Church → barn at 14.15. Returns to Bourton and Stow at 23.00 and midnight, from the gate.
Book the day before — there are four cars in the whole valley on a June Saturday.
AppelerSt Mary’s Church. Doors from 12.30.
From the church gate. One trip only.
Pimm’s on the lawn. Group photos at 3.15, we’ll be quick.
Seating plan by the door, or in the “Table” tab.
Three of them. James has promised to be brief.
Then the band starts tuning up.
After that the floor is yours.
In the courtyard. The best part of an English wedding.
Last coach to Bourton and Stow leaves from the gate.
Your first name is enough. Typos and accents are fine.
Seats are a guide: the plan follows the real layout of the room.
What you write here, they will read again. A few words, signed with your name: that’s what gets reread ten years later.

The rain held off for exactly the ninety seconds you needed it to. Someone up there likes you two.
Harriet · 6.45 pm
My Alice. Your grandfather would have been proud. I am proud enough for both of us.
Granny Peggy · 6.02 pm
Thirty years I’ve known James and I’ve never seen him this calm. Well done, both of you.
Rory · 5.26 pm
Yes, gladly. There is a nanny in the snug from 8 pm and a children’s menu — do tell us when you reply so the kitchen knows.
Dried petals only, and only outside the porch. The churchyard is a conservation site and the parish is firm about it — there will be baskets by the gate, so please don’t bring your own.
Your being there, first of all. If you’d like to mark the day, we’ve started a fund for the honeymoon in Japan — the link is further down.
Almost none, and the Wi-Fi is for the card machine. Open this page once before you arrive: it works offline afterwards, seating plan included.
By 1 May 2027. After that the caterers place their order and we can’t change the numbers.
Sample page, actual size. Home, in Bastide.
The theme is the only decision in your whole wedding that undoes itself in one click. Here are the three questions couples ask us at this exact moment, and what we answer.
What if we change our minds in March?
Then you change it. The theme swaps in one click, even once the page is published and the link is printed on the invitations: the colour changes, the address never does. Whatever went to the printer stays true.
What if my 78-year-old aunt can’t read it?
She will. All ten themes are tuned for the worst moment there is: a phone held at arm’s length, in a car park, in full sun. No text drops below 15px and no theme ever writes pale on pale — it is measured before the theme exists, not after.
What if we simply can’t decide?
Start from your cover photo: the theme that sits well with it is almost always the right one. And if you are still torn, three are free — publish with one of those and settle it later, with a clear head.
Three come with the free plan. All ten from The Invitation upwards.
Each page shows a complete example, and what is worth remembering to put in it.
