Is the ceremony and reception at the same venue?
Yes - the ceremony and reception will all take place at the Kings Chapel, which is set just behind the Kings Arms Hotel, Old Amersham, so you can sleep there, too!
Visit the 'Travel' section of our website for more information about accommodation.
Is my room already booked?
If you, or we, held a room for you for our original date then your booking has been transferred to our new date and your room is all sorted. If you want to double check, please call the venue (01494 725722) and quote 'Walter Wedding'. You will need to give your card details to hold a room but can pay on the day.
Is the wedding indoors or outdoors?
The wedding ceremony will be indoors but the venue also has a lovely garden, so we hope to be able to enjoy the outdoors too. You can get a better idea of the venue by visiting:
Will there be dancing?
ABSOLUTELY
Will the ceremony and reception be socially distanced?
We really hope not! We want our big day to be full of hugging and dancing, without any face masks or social distancing. But if 2020 taught us anything, it's that there's always the chance that things won't go to plan (!) and so we will continue to monitor the news as things lift, and be in touch again if anything changes.
How late will the bar be open?
The bar typically shuts at midnight. But we have been able to extend this to 2am for those of us still going!
What if I have a dietary restriction?
Please let us know if you have any dietary restrictions when you RSVP.
Can we bring our children?
Unfortunately, as much as we'd love to have our friend's children there, we can only accommodate for close family. We hope you understand and that you will still be able to join us on our special day.
Is there a gifts registry?
Your presence at our wedding is gift enough, but if you do wish to buy us something, a contribution towards our dream honeymoon (whenever possible!) would be massively appreciated. You can do this with cash on the day or online here - prezola.com/wishlists/10240529/
I'm an evening guest. What time should I arrive?
Please aim to arrive no earlier than 7pm
Am I a day guest or an evening guest?
As much as we'd have liked to everyone there for the whole day, we're quite restricted with day guest numbers and may be forced to cut this further, if coronavirus restrictions don't lift in the way we hope. It should be clear from your invite if you are a day or an evening guest. But if you're not sure, please just ask!
Whom should I call with questions?
If you have any other questions ahead of the big day, please don't hesitate to give us a call on 07879875981 or email laura.routledge@hotmail.com / steve_walter@hotmail.co.uk
