The Wedding Weekend
It's not very often that we have the opportunity to bring all of our nearest and dearest together at one big event. To make the most of it we would like to invite everyone to spend the weekend with us. With the wedding on the Friday it leaves us the weekend to catch up with everyone. We have secured self catering accommodation for all the guests for the weekend. The accommodation is only 15min from the venue and we will look into options for transport to and from the venue so we can all have a great time and not worry about driving back after the wedding.
The accommodation is booked from Friday (day of the wedding) to Monday but everyone has the option to check out Sunday. We have paid a deposit to secure the accommodation so no need to worry about anything now. More details will follow once we have a better idea of guest numbers.
If you would prefer not to or cannot stay the weekend there are plenty of options close to the venue or in/around Bath for one night's accommodation.
Please have a look at the schedule for more details of the weekend.

Can I bring a date?
Please check your invite for your +1.
Are kids welcome?
Yes, we will be allowing kids at the wedding ceremony and reception. We are looking into babysitting options so that the kids can attend the ceremony and possibly stay for dinner. We will likely speak to everyone over the next couple of months to figure out details for the day of the wedding and babysitting options. More details to follow.
Please reach out if you have questions!
