A Celebration by the Sea

Across miles and oceans, Avery and Tommy found their way to one another. With family and friends from coast to coast, they invite you to join them by the sea in Massachusetts to celebrate their wedding — a day that marks not only the joining of two lives, but the coming together of two shores and two families.

Travel

We recommend booking an AirBnb/Vrbo in the Duxbury/Marshfield area. Scroll down for more information on location specifics. Please let us know if you need help finding accommodations.

Flight

Logan Airport

The best airport to fly into is Logan Airport in Boston, MA and drive to Duxbury. Renting a car at the airport or via the Turo app is advised. Uber/Lyft service in the south shore area is limited.

Train

Amtrak Westwood Stop

For our NYC friends who'd rather not fly, we've taken the train from Penn Station to the Rte 128 stop in Westwood, MA multiple times. It's a scenic route, cutting through nice stretches of Connecticut, Rhode Island and Mass. For a faster ride and more modern train, consider the Amtrak Acela.

House Or Rental

Local Lodging on the South Shore

If booked in advance, Airbnb and VRBO accommodations near the venue are plentiful. Ideally, you should book your stay in Duxbury, Brant Rock, Ocean Bluff, Green Harbor, or Marshfield. If options are limited, stays in Humarock or Scituate are also feasible—just expect a 20–30 minute drive to the venue. Again, please feel free to reach out to either one of us if you'd like to confirm that your accommodation is a good fit.

FAQs

Question

Things To Do

Martha's Vineyard

Martha's Vineyard

Edgartown, MA

If you’ve never been to the islands, we highly recommend making the trip! Nantucket and Martha’s Vineyard are both just a short ferry ride away—typically an hour or two—and offer charming coastal towns, beaches, and scenic views that perfectly capture New England’s seaside magic. You can spend the day exploring or stay overnight at a local inn—both islands make for a perfect short getaway. We’ve linked the ferry schedules below for easy planning. September is also a wonderful time to visit, with mild weather and fewer crowds after the summer rush. If you’d like recommendations for places to stay or things to do on either island, we’d be happy to help!
