Getting there
For your convenience, we are having our wedding in Oxford, one of England's best connected cities. It's very easy to get to Oxford, and there are relatively decent options for parking all around the city.
Of course, it's even easier to park if you don't bring your car- and there are lots of ways to get to Oxford which don't involve driving, with good links by bus and rail to central London (including coaches to Victoria that run every 20 minutes, 24 hours a day).
Here are some links to help you plan your journey up.
By car
Oxford is on the M40 between London and Birmingham - once you get there you're sorted.
Unless, that is, you actually want to go into Oxford itself. We recommend you don't bother, and use one of the city's Park and Ride facilities, of which its residents are justly proud.
There are five Park and Ride sites around Oxford - the closest to London is Thornhill. All of them have buses direct into the centre of town. You can leave your car there for free, so the only cost is the bus ride into town (£1.60 single, £2.50 return per person).
You can find more information on these at the Park and Ride section of the Oxford Bus Company's website. There's even a live site showing how many spaces are available which you can check before you leave the house, or on any internet-connected device once you have left.
By coach
Oxford has excellent coach connections to London and some pretty decent ones to other cities too.
London is served by two coaches, both to and from Victoria Station - the Oxford Tube and the appallingly-named Oxford Espress, both of which run all day and all night, and you rarely have to wait more than 15 minutes for one to come along. Day and next day returns cost £16; under 27s can get discounts with proof of age.
Coaches to other places, including airports etc, are run by either National Express or Stagecoach.
By plane
Heathrow's the closest option, but you can get coaches direct to Oxford from all London airports - Gatwick, Heathrow, Stanstead, Luton.
The Gatwick and Heathrow buses are run by the Oxford Bus Company. From Stanstead and Luton, you need the 737 service run by National Express (this is also the one that calls at High Wycombe).
Walking
It's 160 miles from London to Oxford, and the nicest way to do it is to follow the course of the river Thames along the Thames Path.
There's a brilliant guide to every step of the walk at this site.
By rail
Trains go from London Paddington and go up to places like Birmingham, I think. Singles are about £20.
