The dress code for our wedding is black tie preferred. Men are encouraged to wear a tuxedo. Women are requested to wear a formal dress.
Yes! We will be hosting welcome drinks at the Anchor in the Charlestown Navy Yard from 8:30-11:00 the evening before the wedding.
Because the library is a public building, guests must wait to enter the ceremony no earlier than 6:45 pm. Family photos will be taken prior to that time inside the venue so we appreciate our guests waiting to enter!
The ceremony and cocktail hour will be held in an outdoor courtyard with an overhang. The reception will be indoors.
Guests should make their way at 6:45 to the Dartmouth Street entrance of the Boston Public Library on Copley Square. The venue is within a 5-10 minute walking distance of the three recommended hotels.
Please enter 230 Dartmouth St into any GPS, which is the entryway to the McKim Lobby. This entrance faces facing Copley Square. *The entrance is not on Boylston St which is what comes up if you search for the Boston Public Library address.
