The story so far
Mum came to London in 1988 with one suitcase and a recipe book. Four children, nine grandchildren and more christenings than anyone can count later, she still cooks for thirty without breaking a sweat.
She says she does not want a fuss. We are ignoring her, and we would love you there to help.
Celebrating with us
Getting there
By train
Bank station is a two minute walk from both venues, and Cannon Street is close by for the party.
See it on the map ↗Flying in
London City Airport is twenty-five minutes into Bank on the DLR, and it runs all evening.
See it on the map ↗Driving and parking
There is parking at London Wall, a short walk from both. Better still, let us book you a taxi home.

Where the family is staying
The Ned
The party is downstairs, so bed is a lift away. Mention Yemi's 60th when you book.
Book a room ↗What to wear
Smart for dinner. For the party, cocktail wear with a touch of gold. Brunch is come as you are, slippers welcome.
Questions
- Is it a surprise?
- Only the guests. She knows about the party, but not who is flying in, so keep it quiet.
- Can I bring the children?
- Yes to the brunch. Dinner and the party are for the grown-ups.
- Will there be speeches?
- Short ones, we promise. Then the band plays until one.
Gifts
No presents, please. If you insist, Mum would love a donation to the hospice that looked after Grandma.
Give in her name ↗Thank you for sixty years of friendship, food and far too many parties at our house. Mum does not know half of what we have planned. Please do not tell her.

01How it works
You send the invitations. We track every reply.
Invitations go out from your own WhatsApp or iMessage, one tap each, so they arrive from you rather than from a platform, and guests reply where they already talk to you.
The steps4
- 01
Build your events
Dinner, Party, Brunch, or whatever yours are called. Each gets its own time, venue and dress code on the one invitation.
- 02
Add your guests
Type them in or paste your whole list, then tick who is invited to which event. A name is enough to start.
- 03
Send from your own WhatsApp
Add a guest's number and one tap opens WhatsApp, message written and addressed. You press send.
- 04
Watch replies land
A yes or no for each event, with headcounts and dietary notes, counted up as they come in.
Your side of it: three invitations lined up to send, and the reminders after. Take the names in any order, and your place is kept if you stop for the night.

02The look
Your invitation, as it lands in WhatsApp. Choose your theme.
03Why one RSVP is never enough
Some guests come to the dinner. Everyone comes to the party.
Most tools track one RSVP for one event. A milestone birthday weekend needs separate headcounts for the dinner, the party, and the morning after, one for each room you have booked. Add as many events as your celebration needs.

05For planners
Every celebration you're running, under one login.
Manage multiple client celebrations directly from your dashboard header. Invite whoever is hosting to collaborate on a single shared guest list, then export per-event headcounts for caterers and venues.
Numbers your vendors actually need
Not just “146 people said yes.” The Export button on your guest list gives you a spreadsheet: everyone with their answer to each event, each event’s headcount standing over its own column, and the dietary notes on a sheet of their own, ready to forward to whoever is cooking.
What the export gives you4
- Every event shows what's confirmed, and the most it could still become
- Dietary notes on their own sheet, with no phone numbers on it
- Guests say how many are coming, wherever you've allowed extra
- Filter to one event or one group and export just those
