Cheapest non-package way of attending friend's wedding in Lanzarote in July? Ryanair, Shannon to Fuerteventura and ferry across?

Depends on where the wedding is on. I think the ferry arrives in Lanzarote in a town called Playa Blanca in south of Lanza (might go to other towns too). The ferry to Playa Blanca is very regular at that time of year.
@ghartnett thanks, I looked up the Ferry websites and they appear to be very regular alright. One of them ever offers a free bus from Playa Blanca up to Puerto del Carmen (where we're staying). Unfortunately though the Ryanair flight arrives at 18:30 and the ferry company offering the free bus has last departure time of 19:00 while the other one goes at 20:00 so that's likely to be a panic. Maybe just go clubbing for the night and get the first ferry in the morning ;-p
@runningwithbulls didn't think of that one. Do you reckon it could be cheaper than Ryanair direct? I'm getting €258 return on Ryanair at the moment. If I was going the previous Saturday it would even be €50 cheaper !!
@eirepreneur: the clubbing idea is always a good one :) well, spending the night out partying and then getting the early travel..
it depends on what dates your going for. july is sanfermin and internal flights get expensive, don't know about flights to down south. 258 for Ryanair is direct to .........?
