How to get to Saint Thibéry
By plane
The closest airport is "Beziers Cap d'Agde", which is a small airport with low fare airlines flying for example to London Stansted. You can check if there are any connecting flights to/from your place of departure.
The next closest airport with most of the airways is "Montpellier Méditerranée", with direct routes from e.g. Oslo (Norwegian air shuttle), Paris and Copenhagen. SAS, KLM, AirFrance and Lufthansa are other airlines that fly here. This is the most convenient airport in the region.
It is also possible to fly to Marseille Provence airport, or Nice Côte d'Azur airport, and then take the train, or hire a car to drive around. This would be perfect if you want to make it a trip and see more of France before or after the wedding. Other airports are Toulouse, and even Barcelona (but the latter will be more difficult to arrange with public transportation).
By car
When you arrive in France, the most convinient way to get to Saint Thibery is by car. We would therefore recommend to hire a car when arriving at the airport, so you can easily move around in the area and explore the beautiful region. From Montpellier airport it takes approximately 43 minutes to Saint Thibery by car. Another option is to take a taxi or an Uber. For those traveling in pairs or groups, it might be a good idea to hire a car that you can share.
By train
The closest train station to Saint Thibéry is Marseillan plage or Agde, but there are more frequent and direct routes to the train station in Béziers. Train tickets from Montpellier to Béziers cost around 15 euros per person and take around 40-50 minutes. This is also a possibility for those who can't hire a car. Don't forget that you then need to take a taxi/Uber from Beziers to Saint Thibéry which takes approximately 23 minutes.
General tips for transportation
The Chateau is somewhat remotly located and if you do not have a car, we have listed some alternatives that you can contact below either for transportation to/from the airport or transtation, or to and from the Manovi Beach Club on Friday morning/afternoon. It is also possible to book Uber or Bolt but diffikult to estimate prices and availability (we noticed it is cheaper and shorter waiting time from the beach to the chateau than the other way around).
NOTE: We have already arranged for transportation back from Manovi Plague Beach club on Friday evening to St. Alban Hotel and the chateau, and transportation from the St. Alban Hotel to the chateau and back again during the night on Saturday.

Can I bring my partner or family with me to the wedding?
Plus one
Since we're on a tight budget and have limited space, we simply can't afford for all of our lovely guests to bring a guest of their own. Plus ones are therefore by invitation only and we kindly ask other guests to please not bring a plus one. Thank you so much for understanding.
Children
As much as we'd love to invite all our friends' children, we want the weekend to be an adult-only occasion. We hope that you can understand this decision.
Gifts
Your presence at our wedding is the greatest gift of all! We also do not have any room to bring physical gifts back home :-)
However, should you be one of those that resist on adhering to this request and would like to provide a gift anyway, contributions to our honeymoon is much appreciated.
Speeches
Our toastmaster for the day is the one and only Mr. Derek Page!
We have decided to limit the number of speeches and have already allocated these for the dinner on Saturday.
There might be room to say a few words during the welcome cocktail on Friday, and if that is something you would like to do, please contact Derek directly when we are there.
General tips
We are having the ceremony outside in the sun and we are in for a long day with lots of good food and drinks - remember to stay hydrated (drink lots of water!) and keep in mind that there will be plenty of good drinks spread out throughout the entire day, evening and night :-)
