The second group will join us in the evening also for a meal, speeches, and the rest of the Chinese tea ceremony.

Information

Some useful things to know...

Location

Cara comes from the small town of Thurso in the Highlands of Scotland, and the wedding ceremony will be held right in the middle of Thurso at St Peter's and St Andrew's Church. Later in the day, the Meal, Speeches, and Ceilidh will happen in the Mey Hall, 20 minutes drive east of Thurso.

Travel

Have a look at Thurso on a map - it may be a long journey but it's worth it! If you're planning to drive, you just need to hit the A9 at Perth and follow it to the end. Trains come all the way up to Thurso Train Station, but if you're planning to fly the closest airport is Inverness. Remember to leave a few hours for the last leg from Inverness to Thurso.

Accomodation

With the rise of the North Coast 500, Thurso and the surrounding areas have become popular destinations in summer. It's worth booking as far in advance as possible to ensure you get somewhere to stay. Don't limit yourself to Thurso, there will be more accomodation options available in the surrounding area.

Parking

Unfortunately, both the church and Mey hall do not have copious parking. If you can't find any spaces around the church, we encourage you to park on Janet street just by the river, which is just a few minutes walk from the church.

Please feel free to send us a message if you have any questions about logistics or anything else!

Things To Do

Here's a few things to do while you're up in Caithness!

Go to the Beach!

Wherever you're staying, it's probably near a beach! Thurso beach is walking distance from anywhere in the town, and the spectacular Dunnet Beach is en route to Mey.

Visit John O'Groats

Take a picture by the famous signpost (we don't charge money like they do at Land's End), and enjoy the view with an ice cream!

Headland Walks

Visit Dunnet Head, the most northernly point on mainland Britain, or go to Duncansby Head, where you can see the awesome sea stacks. Beware, both of these places are really really windy!
