Yes! Transportation will be provided to and from the venue via the Garrison Inn in Newburyport.
Yes- there is limited parking available at Willowdale Estate. However, we highly recommended taking advantage of the provided transportation from the Garrison Inn.
If you’re staying at the Garrison Inn, parking is available for guests on site (1 spot per room). If you’re staying at the Essex, there is very limited parking available for guests on site. If no spots are available we recommend parking at the public garage at 2 Titcomb St. in Newburyport. They are the only garage that offers overnight parking. The cost is $1 per hour. Use the entrance on Merrimac St.
Our wedding will be a formal affair. Gentlemen are encouraged to wear a suit & tie, while ladies can opt for a floor-length dress or formal cocktail dress. We can’t wait to celebrate with you in style!
Weather permitted, our ceremony will be held in the garden courtyard and reception will be held outside in a permanent sperry tent. All areas outside are paved so no need to worry about grass or uneven terrain!
