Schedule

Rehearsal Dinner

5:00 pm - 7:00 pm

Casual, but have layers for the evening - it can get chilly!

We will be having a cookout on Thompson Island! The entrance is easy to miss so look out! If coming from on island: the entrance will be on your right after the first land bridge. It will be difficult to see with the trees. When you see the big parking lot on the left, slow down. The entrance is directly across the street from the lot on your right. If coming from the mainland: When you hit the ocean aka you are on the land bridge and can see the ocean and the islands, start to slow down. When you can see a parking lot on your right, look to your left for the entrance. It will be harder to see. If you don't see it, turn right into the parking lot to look and regroup. It is easy to maneuver and turn around in that lot.

Ceremony

10:00 am

Semi-formal beach attire: linen or dress pants, button downs of any sleeve length, maxi or sundresses dresses, walkable shoes or sandals.

The ceremony will be at Sand Beach in Acadia National Park. This area can get congested so please arrive 20 minutes early. You will need a park pass. You can get this online, at the Hull's Cove Visitor Center, or any manned Acadia Entrances. Please park at the Great Head Trail lot. To get to the beach from here, you will need to hike down the trail about half a mile. The ceremony will be on the east side of the beach near the great head trail. When you get there, you will be sequestered right at the end of the trail-so look for the group! You will then be directed down to the beach for the ceremony.
