April 14, 2023 5:30 pm - 11:00 pm
Shuttle transportation will be provided for guests of the rehearsal dinner as well as those attending the welcome party event, both of which will be held at the Metropolitan Kitchen & Lounge in Annapolis, MD. For guests invited to the rehearsal dinner, two buses will pick up at 5:30PM at the Hilton Garden Inn. For guests attending the welcome party, buses will pick up guests at 8:00PM at either the Hilton Garden Inn or Holiday Inn Express. They will continue to provide shuttle service throughout the evening between the hotels and restaurant. The final return trip from the restaurant back to the hotels will be at 11:00PM. For those who would like to continue their night in Annapolis, we would recommend using Uber or Lyft for your trip back to Kent Island.

While the buses will make multiple trips to ensure no guests are left behind, we highly encourage guests to be ready for the 3:15PM buses. The buses will also provide return transportation back to the Hilton Garden Inn or Holiday Inn Express, departing Kent Island Resort at 10PM.
