Question
Are visas required for the UK?
Answer
Yes. The UK requires that all US citizens apply for the UK Electronic Travel Authorization (ETA). It costs 10 GBP per application. We recommend that you secure your ETA form as soon as possible - at least one month in advance. To apply for an ETA, the UK government recommends using the UK ETA app. More information can be found here: https://www.gov.uk/guidance/apply-for-an-electronic-travel-authorisation-eta

Question
What is the anticipated attire for the ceremony?
Answer
August 2nd: Welcome Event Attire We’re planning some outdoor Scottish activities (weather permitting), so please dress comfortably for movement. If you know Nathan, you won’t be surprised to hear that he plans to be wearing a formal fruit shirt, so feel free to match his energy if you’d like! We’re aiming for dressy casual (no need for suit jackets). If you’re looking for something fun, check out GeekTropical for inspiration. August 3rd: Wedding Day Attire For the wedding, we kindly ask guests to wear cocktail attire. The wedding party will be dressed in outfits inspired by the Sinclair modern hunting tartan, which features emerald green, deep blue, and a pop of red. Guests are welcome but not required to incorporate these colors, we’d love to see anyone who wants to embrace the Scottish setting! Since we’ll decide on the ceremony location (indoors or outdoors) the day of, please dress accordingly for early August Scotland weather, layers are always a good idea!

Question
What should I do if the planned transportation doesn't work with my schedule?
Answer
If you need to make alternate arrangements, here are a few options: (1) Taxis & Local Cabs: Taxis can be pre-booked in advance, and local cab companies in the area are generally reliable. We recommend calling ahead as availability may be limited, especially in rural areas. A local taxi company that was shared with us is "Bob's Cabs: 07881 613849 bobs.cabs@btinternet.com". (2) Rideshare Apps: Uber, Bolt, and Gett may be limited or unavailable depending on your location. It's worth checking the app, but please don’t rely on them as your only backup. (3) Driving/Parking.
