Isabel and Freddie
Are Getting Married

Welcome
Welcome to our wedding website — we’re so glad you’re here!
We’re getting married on July 4, 2026, in the beautiful and historic city of York, England.

Our story began at university in Denver, Colorado, where we first met and quickly became inseparable. Over the years, our adventures took us across the pond, where we’ve built our life together.
This website is your go-to guide for everything wedding-related! You’ll find details about travel, accommodation, and more.
Thank you for being part of our journey. We feel so lucky to have your love and support, and we can’t wait to celebrate with you!
Love,

Travel and Accommodation
GETTING TO THE UK​
​
You may wish to get flights into either London Heathrow Airport (LHR) or Manchester Airport (MAN).
​
London Heathrow (LHR)
Located on the outskirts of London, Heathrow is a major international hub with frequent flights from across the globe. Travel time to Thicket Priory is approximately 3-4 hours by car or train (via York).
​
​
Manchester Airport (MAN)
Closer to Yorkshire, Manchester Airport offers a more direct route, with travel to Thicket Priory taking approximately 2–2.5 hours by car or train (via York).
​
​
To enter the United Kingdom you will need to apply for an Electronic Travel Authorization (ETA). It is a digital visa waiver that allows elegible travelers to visit the UK for short stays without applying for a traditional visa. The ETA costs 16 Pounds and it is valid for 6 months. Each person traveling needs an ETA, including babies and children. You can apply online or through the UK ETA App a couple of weeks before you intend to travel. Confirmation is very quick. You cannot get a refund after you apply. To apply, you will need the passport you will travel with, an email address and a form of payment. You will also need to upload or take photos of the person applying.
