Question

What can guests do during the one-hour break between the ceremony and reception?

Answer

Guests are welcome to use this time at their leisure: take photos, unwind or explore nearby spots. You’re welcome to head over to the reception venue early — Tunxis has a tavern open to the public where you can sit or grab a drink while you wait. If you prefer to explore, there are local restaurants nearby — including Fork & Fire, a hidden gem restaurant and bar conveniently located right on the way. Guests staying at the hotel may also use this time to check in before heading to the reception.
