Question

Why Blenheim?

Answer

Blenheim Hill Farm is owned and operated by the Michelin-acclaimed restaurant Blenheim in New York City. It's a living farm with many breeds of livestock and hundreds of crops in its hydroponic greenhouse. We will enjoy farm-to table, naturally organic food cooked by their Michelin-rated kitchen starting at Cocktail Hour until Dessert. It's not only a stunning setting, the farm has some cool history too! The farm dates back to the 1740's with a fascinating history and was the site of various skirmishes during the American Revolution. Just shy of 3 hours from George Washington Bridge

Question

Will I have cell service?

Answer

The cell service in parts of the Catskills is limited! Definitely have the Google Maps downloaded on your phone or written out. If you make a wrong turn getting to your hotel/house/B&B, your GPS will not re-calculate when there is no service! Learn from the pros (bride & groom) who got so lost the first time visiting the venue they were 2.5 hours late to the appointment!!! Not to mention getting stuck in a snow bank, getting towed out and having a car sick dog in the back. Please Download the maps of Roxbury, NY and Jefferson, NY from Google Maps app. You will be able to get directions even without service since the map is downloaded to your phone.

Question

What is formal attire?

Answer

Formal Wedding Dress Code “The wording here indicates something slightly less formal than black tie is acceptable. So, a tuxedo isn't required, but the event is still formal enough for one to be appropriate. For the Ladies The choices are the same as with black-tie: a floor-length gown, a fancy cocktail dress, or a dressy pants suit. As far as women are concerned, there's no difference between black-tie attire and black-tie option attire. The "optional" part comes in for the men. For the Men Men have the option of wearing a tuxedo or a formal dark suit, white shirt, and conservative tie.”
