Regarding catering, we kindly ask you to respond by 7 July 2024 at the latest. You can find the RSVP form here. - May we bring a plus-one?
Certainly, your plus-one is welcome to join. However, please inform us through the RSVP form so that we can account for the number of guests. You can find the RSVP form here. - Are children welcome as well?
Of course! There is a playground in the holiday park and ample facilities.
- Are there any special hotel deals or recommendations for guests?
Unfortunately not. However, we can recommend the holiday park “Eigen Wijze”, which is also the wedding venue. For all options, see the location page. Organising accommodation is the responsibility of the guest themselves. - Are there parking facilities at the location?
Yes, there is ample parking at the location, also for day visitors. - Is the venue accessible by public transport?
The nearest bus stop is “Bant Rotonde”. From there, it’s an hour’s walk to the venue. We recommend that guests form car pools as much as possible. For more information, see the location page. - Will transport to and from the venue be organised?
Please refer to the location page for further information on transport. We ask guests who are driving to form car pools as far as possible. Unfortunately, we cannot guarantee any spaces.
- Are there assigned seats during the ceremony or the dinner?
During the ceremony, there are no fixed seats, but the first two rows are reserved for the immediate family. At dinner, guests will be assigned to tables, but without a fixed seating order at the tables themselves. After being assigned a place, you are of course allowed to choose a seat at a different table if you wish. - Can we specify special dietary needs?
Yes, please communicate any special dietary needs through the RSVP form. If you have forgotten something, please inform the masters of ceremonies through the contact form. - Is there a children’s menu?
We will have a buffet-style dinner where guests can decide the size of their portions themselves. More information can be found on the programme page.
- Is there an option for guests to submit music requests?
Music requests can be sent directly to the bridal couple. However, we cannot guarantee that these requests will be added to the playlist. - Is there an opportunity to perform music or speak?
A live band is organised. During the day, we provide a microphone, a keyboard, an electric guitar, and a bass guitar with amplifiers for use. You may use the music system, including with your own instruments. For special performances or speeches, please contact the masters of ceremonies through the contact form. - Are there activities or entertainment for children?
Yes, there will be a play corner set up that children can visit at any time. In addition, there is a playground on the premises and other exciting activities such as canoes or toys.
- Do you have a wishlist, or would you prefer a monetary gift?
See the page “our story” for details. - Where can I leave the gift during the wedding?
If you would like to bring something to the wedding, you can leave it on the designated table in the main hall before dinner.
- Would you prefer that guests do not take photos during certain moments?
We have hired a professional photographer to capture the day up to dinner (www.evelienfotografie.nl). While it is permitted to take your own photos, we ask you to respect Evelien’s work (for example, by not following her with your own camera). We will publish these photos on this website after the celebration. - Can photos be shared on social media?
Yes, that is allowed, but please do so in moderation. We are not very active on social media ourselves. We hope you can enjoy the party even without your phone. - I do not wish to be photographed by the photographer. Where can I indicate this?
If you would prefer not to be photographed, please bring a red sticker with you and place it at chest height. This will let the photographer know not to take your picture. We will also have stickers available on site in case you forget. - Where can we find photos from the wedding?
Photos taken by our photographer will be published on this website after the wedding.
- Are there specific measures or guidelines that we need to follow in relation to health and safety?
At the moment, we do not expect specific measures, and there are currently no restrictive measures from the Dutch Health Authority RIVM as of October 2023. Should this unexpectedly change, we will of course inform you. - What is the contingency plan for bad weather since the ceremony is planned outdoors?
The contingency plan for bad weather is to move the ceremony (and if necessary all other parts) into the large hall. The date remains unchanged. In the case of extreme weather – depending on duration and severity – it is possible that the wedding will be postponed to the next day (August 14, 2024). In this case, we will of course inform you as early as possible.
