^ That's actually our venue, cool eh?
Are getting married.
Welcome to our wedding website. We can't wait to celebrate with all of you. We hope this page has all the information you need. Let us know if we've forgotten anything!
Please read through the details and RSVP at the bottom. If you need to contact us for any other reason please use the same details.
Only 500 days, 22 hours, 0 minutes and 30 seconds to go.
What should I wear?
Semi-formal dress. Pretty standard for a wedding these days. If you need any help just ask Google.
Are there multiple venues?
No, just the one. Please turn up at the time stated on your invitation.
Is there parking at the venue?
Yes, plenty of parking. You can park overnight however you must collect your car by 11am the next morning.
Can I leave early?
Yes, it's a long day, do as you please. If you want to join us for the day and leave when the music starts we won't hold it against you. If you know in advance you will only be joining us for the daytime please let us know so we can squeeze some more guests in the evening (the venue has strict numbers).
Can I bring a +1?
Sorry, we are running on maxed out venue numbers. Unless we have specifically told you otherwise please do not bring anyone else with you.
Is there a hashtag for messages/photos?
Yes. Please use the hashtag #aaweddingday2022 on Instagram. We will be pulling through an Instagram feed on this page during and after the wedding so everyone can easily access all the photos. If you actively use Facebook we assume you are "getting on" and can't operate a phone camera suitably, so we haven't set anything up for that.
I'm a fussy eater, what should I do?
Don't worry, we likely already know about you (how could we not) and have sorted out alternatives where necessary. If you're still concerned, let us know (contact details are available at the bottom of the page).
What if I have actual real dietary requirements?
We're talking allergies. These we may not know about so please let us know so we can pass the details on to our caterer (contact details are available at the bottom of the page).
Should I bring any gifts?
No. We don't want any gifts. Celebrating with you is gift enough.
What about cash?
Well, if you insist... While you won't need to pay for anything throughout the day/evening (yes... it's a free bar), there will be a tip jar around the bar area and any money collected will go towards our honeymoon (and "minimoon" which I'm 99% sure Arielle invented).
We want to make it clear we do not expect anything from anyone.
Any other questions?
Just speak to Alex or Arielle.
