Mel: No.
Debbie
Mother of the bride and cake baker extraordinaire. The only thing that she loves more than Melissa is Charlie (lololol)

We have set up our gift list with Debenhams. It can be accessed on any terminal in any Debenhams store or via the website.
The wedding list number is 481932.
As you will see it’s only a gift card. This is so we can book a once in a lifetime honeymoon which we will take at the end of the year.
