FAQs
Question
WHAT TIME SHOULD I ARRIVE?
Answer
The ceremony will begin at 3pm, so we recommend you plan to arrive between 2:30pm-2:45pm.
Question
IS THERE A DRESS CODE?
Answer
Cocktail attire! The ceremony will be taking place outdoors on a lawn and then we will be in a tent. We recommend cocktail dresses for ladies and suits for gentlemen. Please wear sensible shoes for the lawn and gentle inclines. Please check the weather ahead of time as this will be an outdoor event and evening temperatures may fall to low 60ºs.
Question
IS THERE A THEME?
Answer
While we have not catered any specific theme for this event, the wedding is an intimate affair and we look forward to embracing the natural beauty of the seaside venue overlooking the bay and Nubble Lighthouse.
Question
WHERE SHOULD I STAY?
Answer
There is very limited availability for lodging at the wedding location itself, so we recommend booking an Airbnb nearby or perusing the many housing accommodations available in York! The venue has a sister location called Stones Throw Hotel which is 4 minutes away, should you prefer a traditional hotel.
Question
WILL TRANSPORTATION BE PROVIDED?
Answer
As most guests will not be staying in any central location, we will not be able to accommodate or provide transportation. Unfortunately, southern Maine is not the most walking-friendly area so even if you are staying nearby, we do encourage you to plan transportation in advance! There are very limited Ubers & Lyfts. If you choose to drive yourself, there will be event parking adjacent to the venue.
Question
WHERE SHOULD I GO FOR THE WEDDING?
Answer
The ceremony and reception will both be at The ViewPoint Hotel in York, Maine. The address is: 229 Nubble Rd, York, ME 03909 There will be signage at the venue to guide you on a very short walk to the even behind the hotel.
