Covid Considerations & FAQs

Question

What safety measures are being put in place to keep guests safe at the reception?

Answer

Our ceremony and reception will be held entirely outdoors, under an open air tent. Guests will be provided a mask should they need one (but we encourage mask-outfit coordination). Tables will be distanced under the tent, with no more than 8 guests to a table. We encourage guests to keep their distance and/or wear masks when interacting with one another throughout the evening. The Inn at Longshore has continued to host weddings throughout the pandemic, and has made accommodations to food and beverage safety in accordance to Connecticut laws. The Inn provides contract tracing if need be. We will proving the Inn with contact numbers for everyone in attendance. Should you need to go inside to use the restroom, a mask will be required. Hand sanitizer will be provided throughout the evening.
