What should you put on a wedding website for guests travelling from abroad?

Answered by the UK Wedding Websites editorial team · Updated 2026-10-12 · For guests

Short answer

For guests travelling from abroad, include travel advice, airport and transport details, accommodation options, currency and payment tips, and a clear schedule with time zones. Also add local emergency numbers and a note about UK weather and dress.

Start with the full venue address and a map, plus directions from the nearest airport or train station. If you have arranged a coach or shuttle, say where and when it leaves. List nearby hotels with a range of budgets, and mention if you have blocked rooms. Add a note about how to book, and whether they should book early.

Include practical information about the UK: the currency is pounds sterling, and most places accept cards, but some small shops may not. Tell them about tipping customs, which are less common than in some countries. Mention that the weather can change, so they should bring layers and an umbrella. If your wedding is outdoors, say so clearly.

Add a timeline for the whole wedding weekend, including the ceremony, reception, and any other events. Make sure you state the time zone, especially if guests are coming from far away. Include your contact details and those of a local family member or friend. Finally, add a note about visas and passports, and suggest they check GOV.UK for the latest rules, as these can change.
