Oktoberfest FAQs
Question
What’s the schedule for the weekend?
Answer
A detailed schedule will be provided closer to the date of our wedding. Additionally, upon arrival you will have an individualized itinerary. A “rehearsal” and welcome dinner will take place Saturday evening. The wedding ceremony and other festivities will take place on Sunday.
Question
Is the ceremony unplugged?
Answer
Yes. Please refrain from using your cell phone for any purpose during the ceremony. We would like our ceremony to be a time for everyone to be present. Do not worry, you won’t miss out on getting a picture, we have in fact hired a professional photographer.
Question
What is the dress code?
Answer
The dress code is formal (dress, suit, etc.). Please also stay within the color scheme of the wedding, deep red and evergreen, as we would like to have a nice picture of everyone as a keepsake. If you have questions or need ideas, please ask!
Question
Can I bring things to do my hair?
Answer
The venue does not have any hair appliances for use, therefore if you would like to do your hair, you may need to look into bringing something special. Europe runs on 220-240v, while the United States runs on 110-120v, therefore you may destroy your appliance if you use an American appliance. If you do want to bring your own tool, make sure you have an adequate step-down voltage converter from 220-110v. I’d also recommend making sure your tool is rated to handle between 110-240v just to be safe. - Cheyanne

Question
Are there things to do in Scotland?
Answer
Edinburgh is the capital city and is full of rich, ancient history, focusing on its medieval and traditional roots. Glasgow is Scotland’s second city and is home to a vibrant, modern city culture with a lot to do. Both are great places to explore. Additionally, we will be in Scotland during Christmas time! Christmas markets were one of Cheyanne’s favorite things in England, and Scotland is well known for its enchanting Christmas markets. Finally, there are tons of small villages to explore and appreciate. Sometimes it just feels special to take a moment and appreciate being in a town or building that was built more than 200 years ago.
Question
What about travel outside of Scotland?
Answer
If you would like to travel outside of Scotland during your time across the pond, there’s a multitude of convenient locations such as England, Ireland, and even mainland Europe.
