Planning this event during the pandemic has certainly been a challenge. We are happy to report however, that recently the state of MA relaxed many of the Covid-related regulations formally in place related to events. This means we are able to include all of our friends and family in our wedding celebration and that we will be able to have a dance floor! To ensure that folks feel comfortable, we will have a sanitizer station and custom cloth masks will be provided upon arrival at the event.
We have tried to secure a location for a welcome event on Friday June 4th. However, due to the circumstances surrounding Covid, this has proven very difficult. We may be able to get something on the books as the wedding approaches and if so, an update will be provided here. However, at the current time, there is no welcome event planned for Friday June 4th.
Wedding Ceremony: 4 pm Cocktail Hour: 4:30-5:30 Wedding Reception: 5:30-9:30
The wedding venue is a beautiful private estate. The ceremony will be held in the rear of the property in a grassy area overlooking the water. Please note that guests will be required to walk from the driveway of the property to the ceremony location (approximately 300 feet). Seating will be provided for the ceremony. The cocktail hour will take place in an outdoor patio area with a beautiful view and the wedding reception will be held in a large tent on the front lawn of the property.
Unless you get permission from Hanah and Pat, you can not drive your car to the venue on the day of the wedding. Parking on site is extremely limited and will be reserved for event staff. Additionally, the venue is located down a private road, on which no parking is available.
Unless you have permission from Hanah and Pat, you are unable to Uber or take a cab to the venue on the day of the wedding. The venue is located down a private, single-track, dead end road. A multitude of vehicles will quickly create a traffic nightmare in the vicinity of the venue.
You're in luck! Transportation will be provided to the venue on the day of the wedding! Detailed information about transportation is provided below. Please be sure to include a response in regards to transportation on your RSVP card. This will allow us to plan accordingly and be sure we accommodate all guests appropriately!
We will be using buses to transport guests to and from the venue on the day of the wedding. Buses will pick guests up at one of two locations and transport them to and from the venue location.
