Giles & Evie's Wedding

12 April 2026

3:30 PM

Retreat East, Brick Kiln Farm,
Sandy Lane, Hemingstone IP6 9QE

We are delighted to invite you to join us on our wedding day, and hope you will be able to join us.

Located in the Suffolk countryside, Retreat East will be the backdrop to our celebrations. Our casual affair will begin with drinks in the bar for anyone to join ahead of the ceremony.

After we say 'I do', we'll celebrate with cocktails, canapés and shortly after a three course dinner. No need to pack your dancing shoes however you might want to brush up on your general knowledge as Simon from the infamous Cherry Tree pub quiz joins us for the evening as tables go head to head for a mystery prize.

All guests are invited to stay with us, with complimentary accommodation provided for the night of the wedding. Retreat East has a selection of cosy barns to rest your head after a drink or two. Check in will be available before the event begins, and throughout the evening as needed. We'd be grateful if you could let us know at your earliest convenience whether you would like to accept this offer so we can allocate rooms accordingly.

An informal breakfast will be available the following morning to grab before you head to work or back home.
