FAQs

Question

Will there be parking at the venue?

Answer

Yes! There is a large carpark in front of the surfclub! If this is full there is parking on the main road also.

Question

What should I wear to the wedding?

Answer

Opt for light, breathable fabrics and beach-casual-elegant attire. It's a wedding, but it's Summer and it's beachside. Keep in mind the ceremony is planned to be on the beach and although it is later in the afternoon at 5:30pm, we imagine it will still be quite warm, perhaps even still a bit of sunshine. We want the whole affair to be pretty casual. Dress to look appropriate for a wedding, but don't go as far as "formal". Most of all, be comfortable.

Question

What time does the wedding start?

Answer

The ceremony begins at 5:30pm on Friday the 21st of Feb. It should only go for 30 mins, after which you can stroll up the sand to the reception in the Surf Club for a 6pm start.

Question

Can I bring a plus-one?

Answer

Refer to your invite. It should state if we've included a plus-one for you. If you are unsure, or there is a new development, please reach out to us and ask :)

Question

Is there a gift registry?

Answer

No, however we will set up a Honeymoon fund if you would like to contribute to our first trip together as husband and wife :) We will set up a QR code at the reception for contributions. If you would like to be nostalgic, cash is also welcome. Please don't feel any obligation though, the most important thing is that you're there and we all have a good time on the night.

Question

Will there be transportation provided?

Answer

There will be Uber gift cards upon each table at the reception for guests to use so that the cost of ordering an Uber home will be covered.

Question

Can I bring my children?

Answer

Yes children are welcome :) Please let us know if they are coming and if they will be sticking around for dinner.

Question

What should I do if I’m running late?

Answer

The ceremony begins on the beach at 5:30pm, and the reception starts in the Surf Club at 6pm. If you arrive after 5:30pm but before 6pm, make your way down to the beach. You should find us on the left side of the surf club (if you are facing the ocean from the car park). If you arrive after 6pm, simply find your way into the Surf Club (you can't miss it from the car park) and join us for the Reception.

Question

Are there any accommodations or hotels nearby?

Answer

Redhead itself is quite small, but some of our guests have managed to find an Airbnb in town. If you can't find anything there, I have included a selection of accommodations below that aren't too far away. If these don't suit there will be many more available closer to the city of Newcastle, which will just add a few more minutes to your trip. https://squidsinkbelmont.com/ (3 star hotel - 13 min drive) http://www.lakemacholidayparks.com.au/ (Holiday park on the lake - 13 min drive) http://www.lakemacholidayparks.com.au/ (Beachside holiday park - 15 mins) https://bulc-boutique-bed-and-breakfast.mydirectstay.com/ (Boutique BnB - 12 mins) https://www.lifestyleparks.com.au/redhead/ (Holiday park in Redhead - 3 mins) http://www.tantarra.com.au/ (Bed and Breakfast - 15 mins) http://werekataba.com.au/ (Unique accommodation - 13 mins) http://www.apollohotelnewcastle.com.au/ (Best Western Plus - 11 mins) https://all.accor.com/lien_externe.svlt?goto=fiche_hotel&code_hotel=8854&merchantid=seo-maps-AU-8854&sourceid=aw-cen&utm_medium=seo%20maps&utm_source=google%20Maps&utm_campaign=seo%20maps (Mercure Hotel - 12 mins)

Question

Can I take photos or videos?

Answer

Yes the ceremony is not a phoneless ceremony, however we do all want to enjoy the moment and be as present as possible :) Take as many photos and videos as you like during the reception!

Question

Is there a seating arrangement or do I sit wherever I like?

Answer

The seating arrangement will be displayed near the entry to the reception. If you have any special requests or needs, please reach out to us and let us know.

Question

Can I offer a toast or speech?

Answer

In order to have our Reception and times organised, we will be picking people in advance for speeches. However, if you have a desire to speak, please contact us to let us know... or you spontaneously want to offer something short on the night, that is absolutely fine.

Question

Will there be a bar tab?

Answer

Yes there will be a bar tab, however it will not be an unlimited amount. Once the limit is reached you may continue to purchase drinks at your own expense.
