Places To Stay
The reception is being held in Castlecove, but the two main places with accommodation are Sneem and Caherdaniel. They are both about a 15 minute drive away and the hotels in the area assure me that taxis will happily run all night.

Ceremony Time & Location
The ceremony is taking place on Derrynane Beach, at 4pm on Thursday, 24th June 2010. We have received permission from the Department of the Environment to hold it here, but we have promised that the guests won't be bringing their own cars, lest this cause a traffic obstruction.
You are more than welcome to walk down from wherever you're staying, but it could be a bit of a trek, so we're providing a bus for those who wish to avail of it.
The bus will be leaving from the following locations:
Castlecove Church Carpark: 3:30pm
Derrynane Hotel Carpark: 3:40pm
Please be at the location on time!
We're having a Humanist Ceremony, which will last approximately 30 minutes, and there will not be seating provided.
