Letchworth State park is expansive! The road from Start to finish is about 20 miles long with offshoots, overlooks, waterfalls, playgrounds, and hiking along the way. There are 4 main Entrances: Mount Morris: Dam Overlook Perry: Halfway point of the park Castile: Lower Falls, Visitor Center Portageville: Upper & Middle Falls, Glen Iris Inn We highly recommend planning your route ahead of time! The park has extremely limited cell service and can be difficult to navigate (especially at night). If you are coming the morning of the ceremony, please give yourself enough time to find your way as it can be easy to get lost! For more information and maps visit: https://parks.ny.gov/parks/letchworth
For the ceremony and following events, we ask that guests wear Semi-Formal Festive Attire. This means colorful/unique suits and dresses! "Festive attire is a fun and colorful spin on semi-formal wear" ** The Ceremony will be on the grass, please choose footwear accordingly **Please avoid wearing anything white or light /medium blue!** Please no Denim or Khaki For ideas, please see the link below or refer to the gallery tab. https://www.brides.com/festive-wedding-guest-attire-6361569#toc-what-is-festive-attire
Shuttle Services to the ceremony and following the reception will be provided to destinations throughout the park, as well as to the Country Inn and Suites. Upon RSVP, please let us know where you will be staying so that we can plan the shuttle accordingly.
With your invitation you will receive a park pass for the day of the wedding only. If you plan on entering the park on September 5th, or re-entering on the 7th there will be a $10 entrance fee for the day at the gate. Please keep track of your pass as we cannot replace them.
If you will be flying in for the wedding, the closest airport is the Frederick Douglas Greater Rochester International Airport. About 40 minutes from the park! https://rocairport.com/
There is extremely limited cell service throughout most of the park! Please plan accordingly.
Although pets are allowed in areas throughout the park we are asking that pets are not brought to any of the wedding events due to allergies and in the name of avoiding chaos. Pets are not supposed to be left unattended at anytime, anywhere on park property so we HIGHLY suggest leaving them at home (much to Scout's dismay).
In hopes of being surrounded by our closest friends and family, we ask that you only bring a plus one if indicated on your invitation! (Invitations will be sent out in Spring of 2025)
We are so excited to have the younger members of our families celebrate our special day with us! There are many activities and play areas for children throughout the park (for more info check out the "Things to do" tab). That being said, Letchworth is also full of cliffs and canyons with questionable protective barriers! Please be advised. For further details regarding safety please contact Debbie Mueller.
An ASL interpreter will be present at all wedding events to ensure the inclusion of all our guests! If you are interested, please see the link below for information on signing your name and some standard greetings! https://youtu.be/y9Rj_X0IsKY The ceremony and reception will be held outdoors; however, there is an accessible bathroom just inside the Glen Iris!
