Their Story
Millie and Conner met through mutual friends in August 2019 on their way to a music festival in Winchester. It didn't take long for them to work out that they would become inseparable for years to come, despite hygiene levels being somewhat questionable for the 5 day trip... In May 2022, after a global pandemic, two Jack Russell puppies, a new home and a career change, Conner got down on one knee. Despite this being in front of the laundry bin, Millie said yes... and now they are ready to tie the knot!

Travelling to Spain
The closest airports are Alicante & Valencia, where there are regular flights to & from all major UK airports. Flights are now available, so we would encourage you to arrange these as soon as possible if you haven’t done so already.
Getting to Javea
Travelling in groups (where possible) & hiring a car is recommended, as Javea is a very straight forward 70 minute drive from the airport. Public bus travel is available via Beni-Connect. Taxis & private mini-bus transfers are also available at a premium. Car hire is easy to navigate from Alicante's airport terminal, from agencies such as Firefly, OK! Mobility & Centauro. Top tip: for the best value, book via Easyjet as an add-on after booking your flights. Please consider purchasing excess insurance if hiring a car & do reach out if you need support with any element of this process. Don't worry about getting to & from the venue on the day of the wedding… transport will be arranged from Javea. More details to follow.
Where to stay?
There are many options available through the usual booking sites, although apartments offer better value if coming in a group - whether that be small or large! Please do get in touch if you would like specific recommendations or have any questions. Around the Arenal beach in Javea you will find a number of nice restaurants & bars to keep you occupied during your trip. There is plenty to explore around the area too, including the port town of Denia & the picturesque Cala Blanca beach.
