THE BIG DAY!
5:00 pm - 11:00 pm
Formal attire, please! More details in 'FYI' section but to answer your main question, not black tie!
Our ceremony will be in the Dale Yacht Basin on the BHYC property, a short 2-minute walk to the clubhouse for cocktail hour & reception. There will be golf carts shuttling as needed/desired! Please note! There will be an old fashioned trolley stopping at various rental houses throughout Pt. Pleasant & Bay Head as well as the The Bentley, White Sands and Grenville hotels, in time for our 5PM ceremony. If you're staying at one of these hotels, please stay tuned at check-in for trolley pick-up time. Those of you at rentals, you'll hear from us week-of with your pickup time once we have the finalized schedule! *After our wedding, the same 2 trolleys will be 1) shuttling to the after party, and 2) shuttling home to these same hotels/houses for anyone who is headed home. There will then be one final shuttle run at 12AM leaving the after party, and for those who stay, Ubers are everywhere and all lodging is less than a 5 minute drive!
After Party!
Sat, Sep 16, 2023, 11:00 pm - Sun, Sep 17, 2023, 2:00 am
401 New Jersey 35, Point Pleasant Beach, NJ 08742
The trolleys will bring us from BHYC 5 minutes down the road to our beloved local pub (where Nancy and Tony’s names are engraved in the wall from back in the day!) to keep the party going… with snacks. There will be one final trolley leaving the bar to do hotel drop-offs at midnight for anyone who’d like to head to bed after a drink, and the party animals can stay until close at 2AM (mom, that means you). The Ark is right in the middle of the Bay Head and Pt. Pleasant hotels, so is less than a 5 minute trolley/ Uber away from wherever you’re staying!

Stop by for breakfast to-go on your way out of town, or stay into the afternoon for live music, lawn games, bloodies/ mimosas/beers and a BBQ! Sounds like an easy breezy first day married to us...
