As you all know, we picked the beautiful village of Aberdour for our forever home and we have loved the warm reception from the locals, the community spirit and the stunning views. When deciding on a location for our wedding, we wanted to stay local and welcome our friends and family here.
Our big day will be a bit quirky, intimate and tailored to what we both enjoy. We sincerely hope you can join us to eat, drink, dance and be merry.
We have created this website for you to see what we have planned, share some videos of the village and keep in touch with our guests. We'll confirm the detailed plan for the day in due course.
Just one important thing — we would appreciate you using the attendance section to confirm whether or not you will be at our wedding with us. Numbers are small due to the intimate venue, so early confirmation would be appreciated.
Enjoy the site and see you soon, lots of love!

Ian & ClaireLocal Accommodation
🏨
Where to stay
Aberdour & surrounding area
The local hotel has 16 rooms and is taking bookings now for the weekend of the wedding. It's small and not all rooms are accessible, so we recommend you book soon.
💡 Insider Tip
Mention the Carrie wedding and ask for Jason or Becca when you book — they are offering a small discount for our guests. Free car parking at the station with CCTV.
Other options are also available locally — from a double room with a host to whole cottage rentals with up to 4 bedrooms. We'd be happy to share recommendations, just get in touch.

How it happened
Our story of surprises
Our story is one of surprises. This was one of the biggest — at least for one of us. I'm just glad she said yes, or I'd have been sleeping in a lifeboat for the rest of the journey.
The Proposal
Ian & ClaireThe Wedding Dance
💃
Get on the floor!
Everyone is invited to dance with us
Anyone who knows us knows how much we love to dance. This is such a foot tapper that everyone can dance along to. We would like everyone to join us in an updated version of the Slosh.
Don't worry if you don't know the steps — if you're moving, you're dancing! We'll try and find dance steps and add them to the video below, however it's truly just about getting on the floor and strutting your stuff in any way you want. 🕺

If you like a little hip action and less footwork, here's another version to get inspired by:
A little hip action never hurt anyone

The most important thing to us is having the people we love around us on our big day — your company truly is the greatest gift we could ask for.
However, if you would like to give a gift, we would be very grateful for a contribution towards our honeymoon fund or home together. We have kept things simple so there's no need to worry about buying something we might already have!
