Synopsis

Welcome to a proper British gay wedding.

Helford Creek, Cornwall. June 2026. Thirty-five guests, two grooms, and a chosen family that defies every convention.

This isn't a romance about falling in love. Brian and Archie already have that. This is about what comes after: the chaos, the champagne, the ex-boyfriends holding oars aloft as you walk towards forever, the police crashing your ceremony, the dogs getting married alongside you, the Celtic blessings and sea shanties and sticky nightclub floors at 2am.

Experience a week in the life of British rowers preparing for a wedding at a centuries-old Cornish manor. Early morning outings on glassy water. Champagne for breakfast. Stag parties that end in kebabs and collective boat races. An eccentric Dowager Baroness quoting Oscar Wilde whilst drunk on port. A polyamorous throuple navigating seating charts. Homophobic families who won't attend, and chosen families who show up with literal boats full of alcohol.

From Thames boathouses to sub-tropical Cornish gardens, from Falmouth harbour pubs to ancient parish churches, this is British gay life rendered without filter. The rowing culture. The class dynamics. The reality of being queer in a country that's both progressive and still learning.

Raw. Authentic. Joyful. Messy.

Written by a gay man who spent a decade rowing on the Thames, who knows what Silverbourne Manor feels like at dawn, who lived this world and wants you to experience it too.

No sanitised romance. No neat endings. Just real queer joy in all its chaotic, champagne-soaked, deeply British glory.

Step into the wedding. Experience the life. Feel what it's really like.

About this title

About the Author

As a former rower, ultra-marathon runner, and cyclist, I try to bring both real and imagined experiences to life, drawing readers into a world that not everyone gets to be part of or understand.For me, rowing isn't just a sport; it's a lifestyle and a world of its own, one that can be hard to access. I lived in London for ten years along the River Thames and was a member of several boat clubs during my time on the water.I like to tell stories about relationships, friendships, and groups of people who find themselves falling in love, spending time together, and building bonds that last for decades. Some parts are imagined, and I've changed details-such as rowing clubs and names-but many of the experiences are real.Not all of my days were fueled by champagne at fancy bars; I also worked in the non-profit sector while completing my master's degree. It was a busy period of my life, but London proved to be more welcoming and varied than anyone could imagine.Enjoy my work. Enjoy my world!
