Schedule

The Wedding Website of Ilana Ransom Toeplitz and Thomas Edward Ferguson
We want our friends and family to make the most out of this place we love so deeply, so we're offering a cute lil' agenda of optional "hop on, hop off" activities leading up to the big day! Here is a list of Berkshires 101 if you'd like some additional local suggestions (Ilana made this for the company of "Sondheim on Sondheim" years ago and it truly has become the gift that keeps on giving): https://docs.google.com/document/d/11e9hdNQCGvqRq0jWWN2fuQkKyNpMVGrTTLRzJgvgHZs/edit?usp=sharing

Berkshire Hike

9:15 am - 12:00 pm

Mount Greylock
Adams, MA 01220

See the beautiful Berkshires in the fall!

Tom and Ilana's third in-person date was a hike in the Berkshires. It's your turn to enjoy panoramic views of the Berkshires atop the highest point in Massachusetts (weather dependent). We'll be leading two hikes. Ilana's is easy-to-moderate and allows hikers to start at the top of Greylock and explore trails around the summit. Tom's hike is moderate, starts below the summit, and follows Ilana's loop around the summit. We'll hit the trails at 9:30, so we recommend arriving by 9:15! We recommend you bring hiking shoes/sturdy sneakers, water, sunscreen, bug spray with deet, and hiking snacks.

Welcome Winery/Brewery Crawl

5:00 pm - 8:00 pm

Casual, but wear your drinking pants....

Home Range Winery -> Balderdash Cellars -> Antimony Brewing Home Range does not have food, but Balderdash usually has a food truck and Antimony has a kitchen. After starting at Home Range at 5pm, we'll aim to arrive at Balderdash around 6pm and Antimony around 7pm, though this is a pub crawl so these latter two times are approximate! For that reason we recommend you start with us at Home Range.

Bloody Marys

12:00 pm - 1:45 pm

Tom and Ilana's favorite Bloody Mary that essentially comes with its own appetizer platter on top. Tom and Ilana decided to get married over a couple of these Bloody Marys! Feel free to order that or anything else on this sneaky good menu. For menu and pricing, please see here: https://ajstrailsidepub.com/menu Hot tip: Pair this with the Ashuwilliticook Rail Trail for a nice bike/walk before or after.

MASS MoCA

2:00 pm - 4:00 pm

One of Tom's favorite museums, this gem is a crown jewel of the Berkshires.

This is a suggested meeting time for those who are interested in exploring this amazing modern art museums in North Adams! There is no official tour, so please just show up and enjoy the museum around this time! FYI Tom may need to miss out on this in preparation for the Jamboree, so please don't wait up for him!

Floral Arranging with Ilana

2:30 pm - 4:30 pm

You Belong Among the Wildflowers....

A favorite hobby of Ilana's with some of her favorite people! Enjoy some sensible day drinking and flower arranging with Ilana. Your arrangements will become centerpieces for the wedding!

Welcome Jamboree

7:00 pm - 9:45 pm

Calling all of our talented, musical friends!

Music is one of the biggest areas of passion where Tom and Ilana overlap. They have so many musical friends (yes, you!) and are hoping for a night where we bring them all together, with a few speeches thrown in there. Tom will play a set with the Corey Hill Sax Quartet. Following that will be the Request Room! The Request Room is a very unique karaoke experience that Tom was a part of while living in Northampton. Ilana will sing, and you can too! Any and all requests attempted! We will provide a dessert bar. Given our guest count and the modest kitchen at the '6 House Pub, we ask that you please have dinner prior to the Jamboree. Feel free to dine ahead of time at the '6 House Pub, or please see our FAQ page for additional options! Attire is dressy casual - think a Tanglewood concert or a nice picnic.
