Getting there
Travel information
Parking
There's no direct parking at either venue, so we'd recommend arriving on foot or by taxi in the morning and heading home the same way in the evening. Driving anyway? Park at X, roughly halfway between the two venues. From there it's a X min walk to the church, and when the night's over, you're just a X min walk from the evening venue back to your car.
Taxis & rideshare
Uber and local taxis serve the Giethoorn area, but keep in mind that most taxis come from larger nearby towns, so expect a slightly longer wait and higher fares than you might be used to. Availability may drop later in the evening - so if you're planning to leave after midnight, consider booking one in advance.
Travel
From Amsterdam: ~1.20h by car, alternatively ~1.30h by train to Meppel or Steenwijk, then 10 min taxi or bus. From Düsseldorf: ~2.40h by car, alternatively ~3.00h by train via Zwolle to Meppel or Steenwijk, then 10 min taxi or bus.

Gifts
Your presence is truly the greatest gift. If you'd like to contribute something, a donation towards our honeymoon fund would mean the world to us.
Day-of questions
If anything comes up on the day, please reach out to our maid of honour and best man rather than us - we'll be a little preoccupied! Miri +49 (0) Ankit +31 (0)
Dress code
Feel-good, fabulous but most importantly - entirely you. You've got this.
Phones & cameras
We're having an unplugged ceremony — please keep phones away and be fully present with us. Our photographer will capture every moment. Once we're on the boats, snap away to your heart's content!
