Question
Will there be a shuttle to and/or from any hotels for the wedding or pre-wedding events?
Answer
Yes, we will be providing a shuttle to certain locations for both the welcome party and the wedding. Friday 06/26: Pick up~5:15PM at Tarry a While Resort, shuttle will drop off at the Naples Causeway around 5:40pm. That does leave a little extra time for grabbing ice cream, walking around the causeway, etc. before the welcome party begins. Shuttle will pick up after the welcome party leaving ~9:10pm from the Causeway, and again at ~9:55pm for those who want to explore after the welcome party, dropping off at Tarry a While Resort. Saturday: 06/27 These times are for departure of the shuttle, so please arrive a few minutes early to catch it. Lakeview Inn (15 Lake House Rd, Naples): 2:55pm Downtown Bridgton (parking lot off of depot st.): 3:20pm Greenwood Manor Inn (52 Tolman Rd, Harrison): 3:35pm Shuttle will be available after the reception as well departing at 11:15pm, stopping at the same locations as above. (Shuttle will only do 1 run before ceremony and 1 run after reception, so make sure you don't miss it!)
