Question

Where will the ceremony and reception take place?

Answer

The ceremony, cocktail hour and reception will take place at Southwick's Zoo/Galliford's Restaurant located at 2 Southwick St, Mendon, MA 01756.

Question

What time should I plan to arrive for the ceremony?

Answer

The ceremony will start at 5:30 PM in the Deer Forest at Southwick's Zoo, but we ask that all guests arrive to the park at 5:00 PM. There is a 10-minute walk from the parking lot to the Deer Forest. Please wear comfortable shoes for walking on dirt terrain! We will have a few golf carts to provide transportation for those who require accommodation.

Question

Do you have any hotel recommendations?

Answer

Yes, see the "travel" section of the website.

Question

Is there transportation to and from the hotels to the ceremony?

Answer

Yes, we will have two school buses that will provide transportation to and from the hotel/venue. Pick-up: 4:20 PM at Holiday Inn Express (50 Fortune Blvd, Milford, MA). Both buses will depart by 4:35 PM with a scheduled arrival of 5:00 PM at Southwick's Zoo. We recommend taking advantage of transportation since the roads surrounding the zoo are tight and winding and can be dangerous at night!
