Frequently Asked Questions

Where is the wedding taking place?

The wedding will be held at Blackwell Grange, Blackwell, Shipston-on-Stour, CV36 4JX, United Kingdom.

I’m travelling from Dubai, what’s the best way to get there?

The closest international airports are Birmingham Airport (BHX), about 40 minutes by car, and London Heathrow (LHR), around 90 minutes by car. From Dubai, there are direct flights into both. We recommend hiring a car or booking an airport transfer as the venue is in the countryside.

What about guests travelling from the UK?

If you’re coming by train, the nearest stations are Moreton-in-Marsh (15 mins by taxi) and Banbury (25 mins by taxi). Both have direct trains from London and Birmingham.

Are taxis easy to get?

Taxis are available locally, but we strongly recommend booking in advance.
