FAQ / Registry

Question

Is there a registry?

Answer

Your presence at our wedding is the greatest gift, and we truly don’t expect anything more! As we start our journey together, we're also embarking on another adventure—converting our beloved van, Bhan. If you would like to contribute, any generosity will go towards turning Bhan into our dream home on wheels. Donations towards Bhan can be made via Paypal (as a personal, not business payment), to paypal.me/chickendibbers (no judgement, please). Thank you for celebrating with us—we can't wait to share the adventures ahead.🚐

Wedding attire or highland dress – kilts encouraged! Be optimistic for sunshine but also prepared for all possibilities. Flip-flops strongly discouraged.

Depending on interest, we may arrange a bus back to Banchory.

Please let us know and we can help to put you in touch with others.
