Other nearby airports include Glasgow (GLA) (64.6 km), Newcastle (NCL) (149.7 km), Aberdeen (ABZ) (155.1 km) and Inverness (INV) (178.4 km). Dundas Castle is located just south of the Queensferry Crossing. Guests should enter by the main gates of the estate leading from the B800, which runs between South Queensferry and Kirkliston. Please be advised that the Dundas Castle postcode is not recognised on any GPS navigation systems but by entering EH30 9SS you will be directed to the B800, where you will see the sign for the front entrance to Dundas Castle.

We ask that RSVPs be submitted no later than 15 June 2024. This will help us ensure catering, accommodation, and seating arrangements are available for all guests.

Please mark your RSVP invite as ‘cannot attend’ as soon as possible. This will help us provide accurate numbers to our vendors.

WiFi will be available at the castle, but if you're extending your trip before or after the wedding, we recommend getting an eSIM for your smartphone. Our top picks for eSIM providers are https://esim.holafly.com/ and https://www.airalo.com/. You'll want to ensure the package you choose covers the United Kingdom and any other countries you may visit on the trip. Alternatively, you can purchase physical local SIM cards at most airports or convenience stores to pop into your smartphone. You may be able to arrange a travel pack with your phone provider (SaskTel, Telus, Bell, Telstra, Optus, etc.). However, we typically find this is the more expensive route if you use your phone often.

Weather pending, the ceremony will be held outdoors. They say that rain on your wedding day is good luck, so if we are blessed with it, we will move the ceremony inside.
