Nick and Rebecca's Wedding list

Dear friends and family,

Thank you for following the link to our wedding gift website. We appreciate this is slightly different to the traditional gift list from a department store, but there is a good reason for that.

We have lived together with 'Lilly the cat' in a small cottage near Newmarket for three and a half years now, and over that time we have just about built up everything a good home needs, albeit some elements being fairly 'agricultural'. However, we do have all we need to be comfortable except for a house of our own. We would dearly like to invest our monthly incomes into our own future instead of the large farming estate we live on. As for anyone wishing to get onto the housing ladder, we just need that first step for a deposit and we can take care of the rest.

As we said in our invitation, your presence on the day and seeing you having a great time means the world to us alone, but if you would like to contribute something then please use this website to help us on our way with our next big project of buying a house. We don't intend to build our own house yet, but have used this as a platform for the purpose of this website. Brother James is in the final stages of building his first house so we have used this as a measure of some of the elements required (quantities, not costs).

Many thanks again, and we look forward to celebrating our wedding day with you.

Love and best wishes,

Nick and Rebecca xx
