After five long years of waiting, we are finally here!
When we got married in 2021, the world had other plans. Travel restrictions meant that many of the people we love most couldn’t be with us to celebrate our wedding and the beginning of our marriage. While our love story continued, this celebration had to be put on hold.
Now, at last, we get to do what we’ve dreamed of all along: bring our family and friends together in one place to celebrate not just our wedding day, but the life we’ve built together since.
This celebration is about love, milestones that mattered, and the people who have supported us every step of the way. We are so grateful to finally share this moment with you and can’t wait to celebrate together!

Where to stay
Where to stay
With over 1,500 hotels in London, choosing where to stay can be overwhelming! Below are a couple of options we think you’ll like — they’re relatively close to us and well-connected for travel into central London.
Just a quick note that the wedding celebrations will run until 1:00 am (should you wish to stay that late), so we want you to know that some train lines do not operate after midnight. However, night buses are available; these may not take you directly door-to-door, so it’s worth planning ahead.
Taxis and Uber are always an option, but we recommend checking approximate journey times and costs from the venue before booking your accommodation, should you wish to stay central.

If you’re only joining us for the wedding night, staying near Stratford is another great option. It’s just a short Uber ride from the venue and is well connected by public transport. This can be especially convenient for guests travelling by train within the UK.

Tips from us (for those visiting from the States)
Tips from us (for those visiting from the States)
- Book ahead when needed — even for free attractions. Some popular spots recommend checking availability 2–3 months in advance. Free tickets for places like Sky Garden or Horizon 22 are released periodically and can sell out quickly.
- Tipping isn’t required (though it’s always optional). Many restaurants automatically add a service charge to the bill, but tipping is not compulsory in pubs; it is always optional and welcome.
- Keep your belongings secure. Stay aware of your surroundings and keep your phone and valuables close, especially in busy areas.
- Grab quick, affordable lunches from supermarkets. This is an easy way to save money and time for sightseeing. Look for “meal deals” at Tesco, Sainsbury’s, M&S, Waitrose, and Co-op. Usually a sandwich, salad, or similar with a side (crisps/chips or fruit) and a drink.

Please check that your passports are up-to-date.
If you are traveling with children and have a different surname than them, we recommend bringing a birth certificate or other proof that you are their parent or guardian.
The UK now requires an Electronic Travel Authorisation (ETA) to enter for tourism. This costs £20 (roughly $26). Please ensure you have this before arriving to the airport. You can apply using the app (easiest way to apply) here, or use the online form here.
