Sharon & Barry

Saturday 2nd September 2023

Our Story
Sharon and Barry met in August 2015 thanks to a well known dating site (too old for swiping folks). Their first date was at The Flowerpot in Derby where an early evening drink turned into many hours of nonstop talking and Sharon caught the 3am bus home. Their love of music and festivals turned into a love for one another and here we are to celebrate their marriage with them.

Beans on Toast
Not more food, one of our festival favourites. Jay, aka Beans on Toast, has been a thread through our relationship. He might swear a bit and he’s probably not for the easily offended. There might even be a first dance if the bride and groom aren't too busy singing along. The kids have their own entertainment with a fabulous bubble show, yay
