Each guest ticket costs £25, which includes:
- Entry to the specified graduation ceremony
- Entry to the post-ceremony Beach Marquee Reception and a glass of champagne

If you'd like to purchase portrait photography, Ede & Ravenscroft is the official photographer provider that will have a photography studio onsite on the day of your ceremony. There are a variety of packages available at different price points and these packages need to be booked in advance. Have formal photos taken of yourself in your cap and gown after your ceremony with your family and friends.
