We're travelling from out of town, know where to stay?
Q
In the section below, we have linked some of the closest hotels we found of varying price ranges.
Battersea Park is really accessible and is on main bus routes in London and easily accessed by taxi or Uber!
Thanks for the invite guys! Can we bring our kids?
Q
Yes! It's completely up to you...
We are happy to have your children at our wedding! Please let us know when you RSVP, we can arrange a kids meal for them through our catering or you are welcome to bring something from home.
The park has a Zoo which is walking distance from the ceremony, so you can always come to the park early!
Can we drive?
Q
There is limited parking at the park, but it is available at the Chelsea Gate...
...Why would you drive though? Do you plan not to drink?
London black cabs, Uber and all other taxi services are available.
Is the ceremony outdoors?
Q
The ceremony is outdoors at the public bandstand in the middle of the park. In the case of rain it may be moved indoors to the Pumphouse. We will let everyone know via email and phone if this is the case. Please allow 15 minutes to get to the bandstand from the park gates.
What about covid!?
Q
Ah, everyone's favourite... Well, at present we are on track to not need to socially distance by August 21st, but we will be keeping an eye on the latest Government guidelines and work out any changes that may need to happen.
If you are concerned, you are welcome to wear a mask! We will have sanitising stations dotted throughout the venue.
If the Government roadmap changes, then we may need to restrict numbers and will keep everyone updated!
What about gifts?
Q
We are not directly asking for gifts, nor expect them but as you know we love travelling! So if you wish to, you're welcome to donate via this link or the link at the top towards our honeymoon!
We're evening guests! What time should we arrive?
Q
You're welcome to arrive from 7.30 pm. Please head straight to one of the waiting staff to get a drink on your arrival and bring your dancing shoes!!!!
What if we need assistance from the gates to the venue?
Q
It is a 15 minute walk at a medium pace from the gates to the bandstand, if this is something you might struggle with, please let us know in good time and we can arrange for park transportation.
