Unwanted and inconsistent Linebreak

Hi, wondering if anybody’s had any issues with Line Breaks being inserted where you haven’t added any?

I have groups of conditional fields on my Contact Form. I ask users to select a checkbox, and depending on the selection, this triggers the relevant group. When selecting the “Wedding” checkbox, the associated conditional field is displayed correctly underneath the checkboxes with no Line Break.

However, when either the “Burns Supper” or “Other Event” checkbox is selected a Line Break is always added before displaying the conditional fields associated with those selections.

I don’t understand why this is happening. As far as I can see I don’t have any Line Breaks added to the top of these groups. The code is here:

<label> Your Name (required)
    [text* your-name] </label>
