Information & Frequently Asked Questions
Is there a dress code for the day?
Not really. No jeans, but hopefully you'll be happy to hear that ties and fascinators are not required. Aim for something smart-casual that you're happy to dance around in.
Are children invited to the wedding celebration?
Apart from people we've already chatted to, please give yourself the evening off and leave your adorable and perfect children at home. If you have a childcare emergency, then obviously bring your kids along. The Reception is in a pub, so children will need to leave by 8.30pm.
Is there a gift registry?
Honestly, we're fine! We'd love to get a card from you, but if you really feel the urge to part ways with cash in the name of our wedding please consider donating to any of these charities:
Brighton Pride : https://www.brighton-pride.org/fundraising/
Mind : https://www.mind.org.uk/donate/
When should we submit our RSVPs?
Ideally please confirm with us (via Whatsapp, this website, email etc) if you're able to make it by 1st June.
Will guest transport be provided?
The Church and Reception venues are 12 minutes apart on foot, or ubers and taxis are very easy and bookable. Please ask one of Robin or Alice's most organised looking friends for help on the day.
We're hoping the weather will be nice enough to enjoy a post-ceremony drink on the beach and to walk between venues. We'll circle back to this closer to the time! We are aware there is an England world cup match at 10pm on 27th June and it will be shown on a screen (but silently so everyone can enjoy the UK Garage Classics Playlist that Alice will be putting on).
For people who are down for a couple of days we'll let you know of any other informal gatherings (E.g. Sunday beach BBQ) closer to the time. We are not having a photographer on the day, so please do send us your photos.
What if it's raining / anything else?
Dorset Gardens Methodist Church is an inclusive church. All are welcomed regardless of age, gender, disability, neurodiversity, race, or sexuality.
