Now that HGP and HHP have started look at HGP. Is it working for me? How can I improve it? More seasonal cleaning ?

Katrina, Is the wedding Thursday because of the Covid-19 circumstances? Here weddings are held on weekends due to guest that have to travel from out of town and work schedules.

Jody, typically weddings are held on Saturdays here too.. The kids picked the date 21.10.21 as 21 is their favourite number.
When the kids sent out their save the date cards most people also took the Friday off and so get a 4 day weekend.
