Introducing The Grooms


Neil & Rogers' Civil Partnership was always going to be a theatrical affair.

Neil works in the theatre and the couple met during a production of the York Realist it was only right that their love of theatre would feature on their wedding day.

So the theme was set....

For one day only guests were invited to a production of 'The Grooms'

The invitations were tickets, the order of service were programmes, and the day was divided into acts.

Burgundy was the colour scheme, which sets off the elegant colours at Dorton House.
Black Baccara and Vandella roses were the main flowers in the buttonholes, corsgages and decorations.
