FAQs
Question
Where is the ceremony and reception taking place?
Answer
We will be getting married at Ashridge House in Berkhamsted, a historical castle from the 16th century, home to King Henry VIII and Queen Elizabeth I, and an hour outside of London. The reception will also be held at Ashridge House along with accommodations.
Question
What is the attire for the ceremony and reception?
Answer
Dress Code: Black Tie Optional We would love for everyone to dress up and celebrate in style! For men, tux or suit and tie and for women, formal gowns or cocktail dress are perfect. Think elegant and festive.
Question
Will the ceremony take place outdoors?
Answer
Yes - the ceremony will be outside (weather permitting) and the reception will be indoors. All will take place on the Ashridge House property.
Question
Are children welcome?
Answer
We love your kids, however, this is an adults-only wedding. We want our wedding to be your night off! If you are planning to travel with your little ones, please let us know and we can help you find a sitter for the wedding night.
Question
Can I bring a plus one?
Answer
Sadly we are unable to accommodate additional guests who did not receive a formal invitation. We look forward to celebrating with you on the day!
Question
How do I get to the venue?
Answer
We recommend taking a cab, uber, or train. For more details on the train, check the Travel page. A rental car isn’t necessary unless you plan to explore the area on your own. The hotel, welcome dinner, and ceremony/reception is all on property, so once you're there, you're set.
Question
Are there hotel blocks reserved?
Answer
Yes! We will be staying on property at Ashridge House for the wedding weekend. We'd love for you to join us there if you'd like — we have reserved a block of rooms at a special rate. Booking information can be found on our "Travel" page!
Question
Are there other nearby accommodation options?
Answer
If you prefer not to stay on property, Ashridge House is about a 10 minute drive from the town of Berkhamsted.
Question
Are there events besides the ceremony and reception?
Answer
Yes! We will be hosting a Welcome Dinner at Ashridge House on Friday, June 12 which all are invited and we would love to spend time with you! Please check our "Schedule" page for all event details. Also, if you are interested in exploring London before the wedding, we will be planning group events. More information to come on the "Things To Do" page.
