Our wedding will be celebrated at Dundas Castle in Edinburgh, Scotland on Friday October 4th.
Our goal is to keep our very special day as intimate as possible, we are choosing to celebrate with only our closest family and friends. Thank you for respecting our wishes
Formal Attire. Rarely do we all get to dress up nicely & with the wedding being hosted in a castle we are requesting all guests dress their absolute best! Women: Floor length dress/skirt/trousers. Men: Suit Jackets & ties/bow ties/ascots PINTEREST INSPO BOARD https://pin.it/18q7AEoTN
It can be difficult to get Ubers to come for late night pickups all the way at the castle so we will be providing a shuttle to pick guests up from Dundas Castle and bring them back to Edinburgh. We will have 2 pickup timeslots. 9pm and 11:45pm. The drop off location will be Edinburgh Waverley train/bus terminal at the Royal Mile. This should make it very easy to walk to your hotel or catch a quick Uber/Tram right to your hotel.
Although we love to watch the children laugh and play, this is going to be an adults-only kind of day
Our wedding colors are Black and Emerald Green. Themes lean into Autumn, Castle, Dark Jewel Tone
Unfortunately we cannot have guests stay the night at the castle beyond the 12am cutoff. Only the immediate wedding party can stay at the castle. The venue has a $500 dollar fine per person found at the castle past curfew who are not on the list.
We're recommending guests stay within the Royal Mile. The convenient part of being in Edinburgh is that most accommodations will be between 5-30 minutes away from the castle. And there's plenty of hotels walking distance to ours. So please feel free to book wherever best suits your needs!
October in Scotland is right after the rainiest month. However your weather app may not be the most reliable as it can be sunny one minute, rainy the next, then sunny again moments later! This is also the time of year to experience peak fall foliage! The daily average temperature for October is 43°F. But you can expect average temperatures to be anywhere between 41°F and 54°F
- We highly recommend arriving on Wednesday to make room for travel delays, exploration, and time to shake off that pesky jet lag! - You will more than likely be having a layover in Heathrow - 99% of places take card, you will not need cash. Most credit cards do not have an international transaction fee. The currency is Pounds. - Recommend looking into what your phone plan is for travel, as wi-fi won't be available everywhere. - You will need an adapter for the outlets, double check your electronics for voltage sensitivity
Yes! We plan to book a few activities with our wedding guests (optional!) the Saturday & Sunday after the wedding before heading to our honeymoon.
Yes! Feel free to move about the castle and the grounds to take photos. There might be some sections listed as "off limits" that are set by the venue
