FAQs

Question

Will I need to be vaccinated and tested to attend?

Answer

Yes to both. Now that COVID vaccines are available to everyone age 12 and above as well as the fact that rapid tests can be purchased over the counter at pharmacies (tests cost roughly $25 for a box of 2), we have decided that we will require EVERYONE attending our wedding in person (staff as well as guests of all ages) to be fully vaccinated AND have a negative COVID test within 72 hours prior to attending their first event. Unfortunately, there will be NO EXCEPTIONS to this requirement. Additionally, we will be requiring guests to provide proof of their vaccination or testing status prior to the wedding. You can find the form here: https://forms.gle/uVakFkSPjLWDy4mV6 Our hope is that everyone attending will be able to relax and enjoy themselves as much as possible. We are also not willing to run the risk of endangering the health of anyone in attendance. Thank you in advance for understanding!

Question

Why are you requiring proof of vaccination and testing status?

Answer

For two reasons: 1) For everyone's peace of mind. As we all know, the past year plus has been jarring and for many it will understandably take some time to feel fully comfortable being around other people they don't live with. Our hope is that if everyone attending our wedding knows with certainty that all others attending are either fully vaccinated and tested negative for COVID that they will be able to feel that much more comfortable and be able to relax and enjoy themselves without worrying about their or others health/safety. 2) For the Venue & local authorities. There is a small chance local authorities may require us to maintain verification of everyone's vaccination and/or testing status in order to hold the event. So we are gathering this information now on the off chance that it will be needed later.

Question

What safety precautions will be at the wedding itself?

Answer

Outdoor Ceremony: Weather permitting, the Haldi/Mehndi, Welcome Party/Sangeet, Wedding Ceremony, and Farewell Brunch will all be held outside. Hand Sanitizer and Masks Provided: Guests will be provided each upon arrival. Large hand sanitizer dispensers will be available as well. Increased Ventilation/Use of Outdoor Space: The reception location windows and doors will be opened to allow for increased air flow.

Question

Will there be cell phone service at the venue?

Answer

Yes, there is cell phone service at Stone Tavern Farm, but there will be gaps on your drive to the venue (around the last 30 minutes). We HIGHLY RECOMMEND entering the destination on your GPS/Google Maps/Apple Maps service ahead of time.

Question

Will there be transportation available?

Answer

On Saturday, there will be shuttle service for those in need to and from the reception. If you need transportation, please let us know, as there is NO ride-share service (Lyft, Uber, etc.) in the area.

Yes! Stone Tavern Farm has a massive lot.

Margaretville is a large town and has a major supermarket called Freshtown.
