Question

Do you have any hotel recommendations?

Answer

Our ceremony, reception, and after party will be at the Colony Hotel, located in Kennebunkport, Maine. This is a beautiful, historic hotel with non-air conditioned ocean-front rooms and newer, coveside air-conditioned rooms. This is the closest hotel to stay at. To book, please book directly online at https://www.colonymaine.com/ or by calling 207-967-3331. Please note: while there are not room blocks available, the venue does request that you let them know you'll be staying as a guest of our wedding! Other accommodations in the area include: The Breakwater Inn (https://breakwaterinnmaine.com/) The Nonantum Resort (https://www.nonantumresort.com/) The Lodge on the Cove (https://www.lodgeonthecove.com/) The Grand Hotel (https://www.thegrandhotelmaine.com/) The Hampton Inn Kennebunkport (https://www.hilton.com/en/hotels/pwmkehx-hampton-kennebunk-kennebunkport/) Note: This hotel is a bit further from the venue. Please plan your post-wedding transportation accordingly! In addition to the handful of options above, there are lots of cute bed and breakfasts, inns, and ample AirBnb/Vrbo accommodations as well.

Question

Is there a dress code?

Answer

We’d love for our guests to wear semi-formal attire to help us celebrate. Bright and cheerful colors are especially welcome — bring out your summery colors! Please avoid white, cream, ivory, and other traditionally bridal colors. We'd also recommend avoiding butter yellow, as bridesmaids will be wearing it. We love longer dresses, but please wear whatever length makes you feel your best — an elevated cocktail dress is absolutely welcome, too! Suits are also great, and should be paired with dress shoes (no jeans, sneakers, or overly casual footwear). A tie or bow tie is optional — whatever feels comfortable and polished! Not so sure about your outfit? Please feel totally free to text Perry (908-967-7210) or Maeve (978-551-8570). We're happy to provide input. We can’t wait to see everyone dressed up and ready to celebrate with us!
