Q + A

Airport Details: Nearest Domestic: The nearest airport to Manchester VT is Albany NY (ALB). It is a 1 hour 30 minute drive. It is a smaller domestic airport, and you will likely have a layover. Nearest International: For international airports (or direct domestic flights), we'd recommend flying into Boston Logan (B0S) which is a 3-hour drive, or any of the NYC airports which are about a 4-hour drive. If you have any questions about transport, please let us know! We have a few people flying in, and can potentially help you coordinate a carpool :) PLEASE NOTE: There are no Ubers or Taxis in our area, please plan your responsible driving accordingly if you are staying anywhere other than the Equinox hotel.

Book a Room: Our Room Block at the Equinox Resort is 100% FULL. If you still wish to book a room here, go to their website directly or call the hotel. We have been told there are still limited rooms available, but not in our block. This is where our wedding will be hosted. If you stay at the Equinox, there won't be any need to drive for all wedding festivities, woohoo! NOTE: The Equinox also has upgraded rooms, suites, and multi-room condos available if you are interested in staying with a larger group. Please reach out to the hotel directly if you are interested in booking any room type beyond a standard room. The Equinox requires a minimum 2-night stay. Rooms are pet-friendly, but they do charge a fee.

Equinox Golf Resort & Spa

Book a Room at our fav Modern Motel (with or without a private hot tub!): Limited rooms are still available in our block! Weve stayed here a few times and always love it! Rest is only a 6-minute drive to the Equinox. Its the best bang for your buck while still having great style and not being too far from town. To book a room, call Rest directly and request a room in the Ogozaly-Huber room block. Room rates are low, but rising (currently $225+) so book now before they go up more! Rest requires a 2-night minimum. Rooms are dog-friendly.

Rest, a Modern Motel

Book a Local Airbnb:If you'd prefer to book an Airbnb, there are a few options in Manchester and the surrounding towns of Dorset, Sunderland, Windhall, Peru (all within 15-20 minutes of the venue). Check Airbnb directly, and let us know if you have any questions!

Restaurants

Pretty much every restaurant is AMAZING in Manchester, so you can't go wrong! Insider breakfast tip: Get breakfast sandwiches at either HN Williams or the Dorset Union Store. They are $6-8 and made on Portuguese sweet rolls! For sitdown breakfast, Little Rooster &amp; Up for Breakfast are our go-to's!

Drive to the top of My Equinox, and take in the views and history! The drive is gorgeous going nearly 4,000 ft up. There’s a museum on top too. Worth the trip.
