After the postman delivers their invitation to a wedding, Clara and Ollie begin careful preparations.

Can Ollie and his inventions - and a visit to the haberdashery - save the day? Playful and whimsical while packed with beautiful details from the V&A, this wonderful story is sure to enthrall and enchant.
