Things To Do

The Wedding Website of Elizabeth Hagele and Ben McQuaide
We’re lucky to be celebrating in such a beautiful part of Connecticut and hope you'll take some time to explore! Whether it’s a scenic hike, a stroll through a charming New England town, or simply enjoying the countryside, there’s so much to see. If you have extra time, make the trip to Great Barrington, a classic Berkshire town where Elizabeth’s family has had a summer cottage for the last 80 years.
