Absolutely not! We love you so much and are so excited to celebrate with you! Our ceremony will be small and intimate, but we'd still love for you to join us at the party, where we can all have a great time together. Your presence means the world to us.

Come dressed for a party! We want you to feel your best while celebrating. If that means a cocktail dress - awesome! If it means your best jeans and a nice shirt - we love that for you! This is not a traditional wedding, so please don't feel pressure to go formal if you don't want to, but if you're extra - go nuts.

This is a city celebration and unfortunately, that means limited parking options. We highly recommend using Uber/Lyft/Taxi instead of driving to avoid the hassle or the ticket. If you end up driving, it's important to note the streets surrounding the park are permit parking only. With that said, you *could* park on the street and hope for the best. The ceremony should only be a half hour long so you could potentially miss getting a ticket. But... you might not. On the other hand, there is public parking in Union Square, some metered, some not metered, including spots on Somerville Ave and Bow St and beside the Old Firehouse/Somerville Media Center building in the center of Union Square. Please note, you will still need to then walk to Prospect Hill park, which is a very steep walk. Our other suggestion is to find a parking garage in/around the city and Uber/Lyft/Taxi from there. You might consider parking at the Canal Street Garage at 449 Canal Street Somerville or the Foley Street Garage at 350 Foley Street Somerville, both of which are free for the first 3 hours.

This is a city celebration and unfortunately, that means limited parking options. We highly recommend using Uber/Lyft/Taxi instead of driving to avoid the hassle or the ticket. If you do drive, you *might* find metered street parking by the restaurant. Otherwise, there is the Back Bay Garage at 199 Clarendon St, Boston, which is a short 10 minute walk from the restaurant. There is also the Clarendon St. Garage at 100 Clarendon St, Boston.

Please let us know if you have any dietary restrictions and we'll try to work with the restaurant to accommodate you.

This will not be your typical wedding. It's Bethany and Victor, after all. If you're coming to the ceremony, don't expect a parade down the aisle and there will be no groomsmen or bridesmaids. But there will be tons of love and we will be exchanging heartfelt vows. There will be a quick break in between the ceremony and the party because we're considering them two separate events. If you're coming to the party at Buttermilk & Bourbon, this will be a mostly standing affair (there will be some seating options) with tons of buffet style food, cocktails, and mingling. If your dance moves are rusty, don't worry - you won't have to show them off here as there will be no dancing.

It's good luck! With that said, if you've been invited to the outdoor ceremony, you may get wet. We'll do our best to provide umbrellas and blankets to keep people dry and toasty if they do not have their own, but please do be prepared if it looks like rain. If it's really coming down, we'll scrap the ceremony altogether and do a quick one in Buttermilk & Bourbon before the party.

This one is completely up to you. We love you and your kiddos, but there are some considerations to think about. If you've been invited to both the ceremony and the party, there will be a little gap between the two events, so you'll need to bring them back and forth. We're also hoping you'll come bar hopping with us afterwards, which obviously is not a kid friendly activity. That said, if you'd like to bring them to the ceremony and the party, we certainly won't say no.

We genuinely appreciate your understanding of the small gap between the ceremony and the party. We are considering them two separate events (not everyone was invited to the Ceremony) and we'll need time to take pictures and break down the set up from the ceremony. You can feel free to hang in the park to take pictures with us to kill some time. You could also use the time to catch up with other family members you haven't seen in a while, take a nap at your hotel or check in if you haven't already, or do an outfit change for fun. Please keep in mind, there's a big event in the city this weekend, so we recommend heading out to Buttermilk and Bourbon around 4:30pm to get there for 5pm. Whatever you end up doing before then, we're so grateful to see you at both events!

There is a big event happening in the city this weekend. Please leave yourself plenty of time when Ubering/Lyfting/Taxiing to ensure you arrive to the events on time. Thank you!
