    A few people have had the idea of having a letter sent to their H2b from there favourite football team. How do you get in contact with the club?

    find out their pr manager and write them a letter, if you can get their name even better as they are more likely to respond.

    I wrote to my h2b's fav team. They had a 'special occasions' section via the Managers office. I got a signed letter from the manager wishing us both the best for our wedding, i'm going to get it framed and give it to my h2b on our wedding day

    I have got a letter from Tottenham for my H2B...I just emailed in and a lady responded almost immediately. Sure enough about 3 days later an original signed letter came from the manager congratulating us. He is going to love it and it cost me nothing!

    We got married in September and I sent the request (via their website) in April/May time. You have to remember to bear in mind the end of the season etc. It's good to give them plenty of time. I got a reply within a couple of weeks and I got the certificate through about 2 weeks before we left for Vegas :)

    I literally put:

    Hi
    I don't know if you can help me, but I've become aware that certain football clubs send out something special for people on their wedding day.
    My other half is a true baggies supporter, I got him a stone on Baggies Brick Road for Christmas last year, and was wondering if this is something WBA do? As would love to give him something as an extra special surprise on our big day in May next year! Is there anything you would be able to send?
    I am aware that other people have written letters to other clubs along with details of their big day and a SAE for returns.

    I hope you don't mind me asking but wasn't sure where the best place was to contact you.

    etc etc

    along those lines anyways.... but turns out my best mates work colleagues GF works for WBA admin so shes going to ask the GF if can get something thru her!

    Oh wow I love this idea! My h2b (and children) are massive Chelsea fans. I think I will write to them, although how to tactfully say he'd like anything from anyone at the club except from the manager will be tricky.

    Just wanted to thank you for starting this thread. I would never have thought of this idea and yet I love it!!
    Chelsea FC has actually been a massive part of our life.
    Emailed them and was amazed to receive a letter from them today (dated wedding day) wishing us good luck and congratualtions and signed by team captain.
    Showed our son and he is almost wetting himself with excitement - think we will have son read it out during the speeches :-) It will make the day even more special.

    One happy girl, thank you again x
