We have arranged for shuttles to take you from Hampton Inn and Suites Downtown Portsmouth to the ceremony, reception, and back. We want everyone to enjoy their time in New Hampshire safely and easily! Shuttles depart Hampton Inn & Suites Downtown Portsmouth - 3:15pm St. Andrew's by the Sea is a historic chapel and has limited facilities. There is only one restroom at the church, so we suggest planning ahead.
4:45 pm - 10:00 pm
Summer Cocktail Attire; Men: Jacket and Tie; Women: Plan shoes accordingly since the reception will be on a lawn and the beach.
Shuttles will take guests from the ceremony directly to the reception. If you choose to drive to the reception, it is about a 20-minute drive to the parking area at New Castle Public Library, 301 Wentworth Road. From there you can either take a shuttle or walk to the reception. Shuttles will be coming from the church and will first drop guests off at the reception before proceeding to the library, so there may be a brief wait. For those who choose to walk to the reception it is a 10-minute walk, either along the beach or via Beach Hill Road. Shuttles will take guests from the reception to downtown Portsmouth at the following times: Early reception departure - 8:00pm Last shuttle from reception - 10:00pm
