Out of respect for our guests' efforts to travel and attend our wedding, we are not asking for any gifts. Your presence is the most valuable gift of all!
We are in the process of planning transportation. This will be updated as soon as a shuttle is booked!
Deerfield has a parking lot located directly outside where the ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception will take place. Parking is free.
The ceremony will take place outdoors. The cocktail hour and reception will be held indoors. *In the event of inclement weather, the ceremony will be held indoors.
Newark is home to the University of Delaware, where we both work. We recommend taking a walk around our beautiful campus. Whether you stay on Main Street or close by, we also recommend visiting Main Street, where you will find many restaurants, bars, and shops. Some of our favorite places to get food on Main Street are Deer Park Tavern, Roots, and Klondike Kate's. Just remember spring semester will be in session, so you'll see lots of college students!
Delaware is a perfect place for you to make our wedding a longer getaway. We are an easy jumping-off point for beaches, cities, and charming small towns. Beaches: Delaware’s beaches (Rehoboth, Bethany, Lewes) are about 1.5–2 hours by car—perfect for a relaxing coastal add-on. Maryland’s Ocean City and the Jersey Shore are also within easy reach. By train: Newark sits on the Amtrak and SEPTA line, making car-free travel simple. - Philadelphia: ~45 minutes - Baltimore: ~1–1¼ hours - Washington, DC: ~1½–2 hours - New York City: ~1½–2 hours By car: Historic towns, scenic countryside, and great food are everywhere—think Chesapeake Bay seafood, Brandywine Valley gardens and museums, Longwood Gardens, and charming downtowns throughout Delaware, Pennsylvania, and Maryland. Whether you’re craving a beach weekend, world-class museums, or iconic East Coast cities, it’s all close enough to mix and match. We hope you can explore a bit while you’re here!
