We are closely monitoring NY State guidelines related to COVID19 and the effects it may have on our scheduled wedding on 9/26/2020. At this time, since NY State is not allowing gatherings of more than 50 people, we are changing the location of our ceremony and reception to be at our home in Holtsville instead of hosting it at the Bates House in Setauket. Both the ceremony and reception will be in our backyard which would be tented for the day. We are asking that all guests who live or are currently residing in states outside of New York monitor the NY State travel guidelines and abide by the self-quarantine rules. See below for additional clarifications regarding our day.
Question

How many people are you inviting?

Answer

We've invited a total of 117 guests.

Question

How large is your backyard?

Answer

Our backyard is approximately 8,000 square feet. If we have 100 guests attending, each guest would in theory have 80 sqft of space. This calculation does not take into account the space that will be occupied by tables and chairs. Your health and comfort is important to us, please do not feel the need to attend if you feel uncomfortable.

Question

What will the parking situation be at your home?

Answer

We ask that if you're able to take advantage of a ride-sharing service like Uber or Lyft, that you do in order to minimize the number of cars on the street.

Question

What precautions will the catering staff be taking?

Answer

We have been in communication with our caterer regarding safety measures for food/beverage serving as well. She has assured me that all serving staff will be wearing masks for the duration of the event and already follow strict health and safety guidelines and take the safety of our guests very seriously.

For all the days along the way
