The Location - The Dolphin Inn - Kingston in Devon
We had originally planned to get married in Opava, Czech Republic but decided it might be a little too adventurous for most of our guests (both time- and wallet-wise). So instead, we thought it only right to celebrate in Kingston — the place where we actually tied the knot and somewhere that means a lot to us.
The Dolphin Inn is especially close to our hearts — it’s where we ended up having our unplanned wedding breakfast, sitting on a bench in our wedding gear, just the two of us. So it feels like perfect symmetry to come back here and finally celebrate properly, with all of you, as part of the original story.
Dress Code & Kids
Summer garden party vibes (with a touch of Alice in Wonderland — think Mad Hatter’s tea party, not royal wedding). Wear whatever makes you feel good (but maybe leave the jeans at home). Kids are very welcome, and we’ll have plenty of space for them to run around. Just one small request: please avoid wearing white… the bride’s earned her moment.
To gift or not to gift - up to you
Your presence is the only present we need, truly. We’ve waited six years to throw this party and having you there means everything. That said… we’re not going to be those people who say “absolutely no gifts” and then act surprised if one shows up (sorry, not sorry). If you do feel like being generous, we won’t stop you but please know there’s zero expectation.
Accommodation & the stunning surrounding area
Kingston is a beautifully remote spot in Devon, so we’d recommend booking accommodation early. There are plenty of great options nearby — from cosy Airbnbs and holiday cottages to hotels and inns in surrounding towns like Modbury and Kingsbridge, both just 15–20 minutes away. We are investigating arranging minibus runs to and from the Unwedding where possible. However, we would recommend you book with an eye on thinking about car pooling, group taxis and designated drivers too though.
If you’re thinking about making a weekend (or even a week) of it, the area is perfect for a mini escape. We’re a stone’s throw from some of Devon’s best beaches — Bigbury-on-Sea and Wonwell are just down the road, offering stunning coastal walks, swims, and sandy spots to unwind. It’s a great excuse to turn The Unwedding into your own little holiday.
