Rehersal Dinner

7:00 pm - 9:30 pm

Cocktail Attire: Wear cocktail dresses, LBDs, dressy jumpsuits, and dark jackets and slacks.

Prepare for a mouth full of delicious food from Mystic Market Catering at the rental home of Anne and David Winter. They are graciously hosting us! After rehearsing, we're sure everyone will have big appetites! We'll not only fill your tummies but also your hearts with speeches from parents and the wedding parties. Tears are encouraged! Beer and wine will be available, but if something a little stronger wets your whistle, then it's BYOB.

Ceremony & Reception

3:00 pm - 10:00 pm

Black-Tie: Wear floor-length gowns or formal cocktail dresses, tuxes with black neckties or bowties, 3-piece suits, formal suits

The Branford House was built in 1902 for Morton Freeman Plant as his summer home. We fell in love with this gorgeous seaside castle at first sight when we participated in a Great Gatsby themed photoshoot back in 2012. Our wedding ceremony will begin at 3:00 pm. We no longer are having the ceremony outside. We will still provide a hot beverage bar, to help keep your hands and hearts warm. There will be a coat rack to hang your coats once everyone is inside. The reception will be cocktail-style hors d'oeuvres all night with tables throughout the venue for anyone wishing to take a seat. But we do encourage mingling, dancing, eating, and drinking! Let us celebrate!

Sunday Funday Football

12:00 pm - 4:00 pm

Football Jersey Casual

We decided since most of our guests are football fans, a Sunday Funday in the hotel lobby bar and restaurant will be a great option! No fighting about teams.....even though the Patriots are the best! Haha! We are planning on having apps for you all plus a cash bar. We'll do final cheers to an amazing weekend and wish us well on our path of marriage.
