Question
I'm coming from out of town. Where should I stay?

We'd love for our out of town guests to stay at our wedding venue, Hotel Bellwether. There is a discounted rate offered to all our guests, please call the Hotel directly and ask for the "Romano - Bardon Wedding" courtesy rate. There are also other options in the area, check out our "Travel" section for a list of recommendations.

The ceremony and cocktail hour will take place on the terrace at Hotel Bellwether. Dinner, reception and dancing will be held in the Bellwether Ballroom.
Question
How should I get to the venue? And where should I park?
Answer
If you're not staying at the Hotel Bellwether, you will need to drive or take a ride share / taxi. There will be free overnight parking available at the Bellwether for all wedding guests. Please note Bellingham is a small town and Lyfts/Ubers can be somewhat limited.
Question
What should I wear?

Question

Answer
Your presence in helping us celebrate our special day is the best gift we could ask for! Should you feel inclined to give us a gift, we are registered through West Elm, Sur La Table, and Amazon. Please see the "Registry" section for more details!
