Welcome to our wedding website!

On September 11th, we will be tying the ol' knot on the beautiful north fork of long island.

And we can't wait to see you there.


We will continue to post details about our upcoming wedding, so check back often for information about location, accommodations and inspiration.

Getting There

For those coming from NYC, you know the drill.  
Best bet is the Hampton Jitney

Take it to the North Fork; it makes stops in Southold, Greenport and Orient.


The LIRR is also an option, albeit often a slow one.

For our Boston crowd.
Cars are the most convenient option.  Carpools are a good thing.  There are two routes that we take that lead to the ferry in New London, CT. https://www.longislandferry.com/Default.asp
I-90S to I-395S
or 93S to 95S
I recommend google mapping it.
The automobile ferry ride lasts about 1.5 hours.
You can also take an Amtrak train from Boston to New London.  The train station is across the street from the ferry terminal.  You can walk on the auto ferry or a fast ferry (which takes approx. 45mins)  You'll need to check the schedule online.  If walking on, you'll have to set up transportation once on the Orient side.  Taxis or friends are the best option.  Call me if you're doing this and I will hook you up.
Enjoy the ferry ride and check out the haunted lighthouse to your port side as you exit the harbor in New London.
Once you land in Orient Point, the Old Field is about a 10 mile drive.


For those of you flying, the nearest airport is MacArthur Airport in Islip.   Otherwise you will be flying into LGA or JFK.  I'll update this transportation as the time nears.  Check out the accommodations page.
