Travel & Stay

We’re so excited to have you join us! October is a popular time in the area, so lodging options can be limited. All of our recommended hotels and rentals are close to the wedding events, with options in Red Bank, Sea Bright, Long Branch, and Monmouth Beach. We’re happy to help you find the perfect spot for your stay. If you’re considering Ocean Place, let us know as we may be able to arrange a room block if there’s enough interest! Please reach out to Kathy Marhan (kpmarhan@comcast.net/973-919-5862) with any hotel questions.
