THE WEDDING

We’re getting married in Phippsburg, Maine, and we can’t wait to celebrate with you!
Here’s everything you need to know about the wedding.

DRESS CODE

FUNKY FORMAL

We’re envisioning a joyful, eclectic celebration filled with color, vintage charm, and lots of personality. Dress up, get creative, and wear something that makes you feel like dancing. The more interesting, expressive, and colorful, the better.

And if funky formal isn’t quite your thing, wear that classic black suit or dress... we’ll still love you, and we’ll be so happy you’re there!

One important note: much of the celebration will take place on grass, so choose your shoes accordingly.

A few colors we love! Feel free to take inspiration from the palette, but there’s no need to stick to it.

GETTING THERE

Flying in?

The closest major airport is Portland International Jetport (PWM), about 50 minutes from Phippsburg and 15 minutes from downtown Portland.

Boston Logan International Airport (BOS) is another option with lots of direct flights, approximately 2 hours away by car. There's also a bus that can take you to Portland via Concord Coach Lines.

RENTAL CARS

If you’re flying in, we recommend renting a car for the weekend. Rideshares like Uber and Lyft can be limited and unreliable in the Midcoast, especially when traveling to and from Phippsburg where our venue is.

Having a car will also make it easier to explore the area, get to and from your hotel, and make the most of your Maine weekend.

Coming by Car?

This is a great way to explore Maine! Driving up Route 1 is one of our favorite road trips we've done. Acadia National Park is a must-see destination as well as all of the cute towns along the way!

Coming by train?

There is an AMTRAK station in Brunswick, Maine, which is a 25 minute drive from the venue. This is a great option for those who may be meeting someone with a car in the area.

On the Day

Shuttles will take guests to and from the wedding, so you can sit back, relax, and enjoy the evening. Uber and Lyft are not reliable methods of transportation in Bath or Phippsburg. You can easily get an Uber or Lyft around Portland, but would not rely on that to get to the wedding venue!

WHERE TO STAY

TWO WAYS TO WEEKEND

We recommend staying either near the wedding in Bath/Phippsburg or in Portland, depending on what kind of weekend you’d like to have. We recommend booking early, as it is a holiday weekend and things will book up!

STAY IN PORTLAND

Portland is one of our favorite cities, and we think all of you will love it too! There are endless restaurants, coffee shops, lighthouses, cute shops, and easy ways to get out on the water. Come up to Phippsburg for the wedding, then head back to the city when the party's over.

Am I allowed to bring my kids or a plus one?

Due to venue capacity, we are only able to accommodate the guests specifically named on each invitation. We appreciate your understanding.

Will there be transportation to and from the wedding

Yes! We've got you covered. More information on where and when the pickups will be is coming soon.

WHAT WILL THE WEATHER BE LIKE?

July in Maine is usually beautiful, but New England weather has a mind of its own. Expect summer temperatures, sunshine, and the possibility of a cool evening or a little rain. We recommend bringing layers.

WILL THE WEDDING BE OUTSIDE?

Most of the celebration will take place outdoors, including on grass. We recommend comfortable shoes and bringing a layer for the evening.

What should I wear?

Our dress code is Funky Formal. Think colorful, vintage, interesting, and fun. 70s ties, heirloom brooches, bold colors, sequins, and vintage finds are all encouraged. A classic black suit or dress is always perfect, too. Much of the wedding will be on grass, so choose your shoes accordingly.

What should we do in Maine?
