Our Wedding!

The Wedding Website of Elyssa Michael and Jim Barrett
We can't wait to celebrate with you! Here is the schedule for the weekend. We will be providing shuttles from the Colonial Inn and Marriott. The shuttle will pick up from the Colonial Inn at 3:30 and 3:50 and then proceed to the Marriot and then to the Schnitzer's at 1155 Lowell Road. There is limited parking available at our dear friends The Schnitzer’s for those of you not staying in a hotel. Between winters of 2010 and 2013, Jane, Elyssa, Adam, Christopher, and Juliet all lived in the Little House on Saltbox Farm. We loved it -- chickens, cows, sheep, bees, and all. We are delighted to share our old home with you and party in the backyard! The above photo is of the farm! We nabbed it from their website (look at me being a good teacher and citing my sources...) Jim’s brother, Patrick, designed our invitations! He drew the pictures of the Little House/barn on the Saltbox property and set the type! They were printed by Hartford Prints! My colleague drew the chickens!

Our Ceremony

4:00 pm - 5:00 pm

Dressy casual. We will be spending the whole evening in the farm's garden so you may prefer to wear flats or wedges so you don't sink into the grass!

Please feel free to arrive as early as 4:00 (we want to spend as much time musing among the vegetables as possible!) and the ceremony will begin at 4:30. Elyssa's brothers, Adam and Christopher, will be joint-officiants and they've been working on their speech material since at least the 2005 Tri Con Palen Circle. You don't want to miss it! Transportation Schedule: - 3:30 pick up at Colonial Inn, 3:40 pick up at 1155 Lowell Road (where guests who are not staying in town can park in the field of our dear friends, The Schnitzers, or guests not staying in town are welcome to park in town and pick up the shuttle at the Colonial Inn) - 3:50 pick up at Colonial Inn, 3:40 pick up at Residence Inn Marriott, 4:00 pick up at 1155 Lowell Road - 10:00 shuttle back to cars and hotels

Dinner and Dancing!

5:00 pm - 10:00 pm

Our reception will be in the farm's garden and orchard immediately following the ceremony! There will be plenty of food for hors d'oeuvres, dinner, and dessert throughout this cocktail party-style reception; feel free to find a table to sit or mingle with friends amongst the wildflowers and herbs. We will have yard games and picnic blankets available. Our food will be prepared by the chefs of Saltbox Farm and their ingredients come from the fields and garden in which we'll be celebrating!

'Night, Concord!

Sat, Aug 18, 2018, 10:00 pm - Sun, Aug 19, 2018, 12:00 am

Concord is an old town and it gets sleepy earlier than all us young folks. Town noise and liquor ordinances mean the reception ends at 10:00 but that doesn't mean the celebration has to! For those of you who would like to join us, we will be continuing the party at the groomsmen's cottage in the back of the Colonial Inn in Concord Center. We'll have some more beverages and late night snacks on the porch.
