Travel Note
We recommend flying into Heathrow - access to the city is very straightforward. You can take the Heathrow Express train into Paddington and hop onto the most convenient tube/subway from there. Alternatively you can get the tube from Heathrow, picking up the Piccadilly line into town ( this is the only tube line with access to the airport so you'll need to swap lines as you get closer into town depending on where you're staying).
Travel Note
When travelling around London, we recommend getting CityMapper. It's a map based app that lets you input your starting and end points to create a route. It will suggests routes that are easy to follow, with travel time and cost of transport. to get around London, you should buy an Oyster card for tubes and buses, which costs £5 (this is refundable) and you can top up with cash or card payments. Otherwise, there are cabs - we suggest Uber, Kapten, Bolt or Lyft if you want to use an app, or Addison Lee if you'd like to call and book T: +44 (0)207 3878888. London black cabs are eye-wateringly expensive!
Travel Note
While you will need to make your way to Hackney Town Hall from your respective hotels for the ceremony, there will be buses picking everyone up from Hackney Town Hall to take you to St. John, so please don't worry about booking transport.
