Shuttle to and from the Church

June 12, 2021 2:00 pm - 4:30 pm

CHURCH PARKING - Limited Church parking is available in the ICSJ School parking lot, behind the Fire Station. See below for Guest Shuttle Details.A Motor Coach shuttle will be available to take guests from The Royal Sonesta Hotel to the ceremony at St. Joseph Church, and then back to The Royal Sonesta Hotel. Departure and Drop-Off will be from the State Street exit of The Royal Sonesta Hotel. The first Shuttle Run will depart at 2:10 and we encourage as many as possible to board this shuttle - so that the 2nd Shuttle Run, departing at 2:40, is not over capacity of 55 people. Following the Ceremony, a Receiving Line will not be done at the Church, so Guests are asked to leave the Church and board the 1st Shuttle Run back to The Royal Sonesta Hotel. All remaining guests will board the 2nd Shuttle Run. These 10 minute Shuttle Runs need to be alcohol-free. THANK YOU in advance for your help in making sure everyone "gets to the church on time" !
