Q + A

Block Island holds such a special place in our hearts and we are so excited for you to experience it with us. The island is only accessible by the Block Island Ferry departing from Point Judith, RI, New London, CT, and Montauk, NY. More information can be found here: https://blockislandinns.com/contact/getting-to-block-island/.&nbsp; While you can bring a car, there are plenty of taxis on the island to take you where you need to go. We would also like to note that room rates tend to drop after Labor Day if you are interested in waiting to reserve a room. We’ve included our recommended places to stay and look forward to you joining us!&nbsp;

We're so excited you're joining us!

The wedding ceremony will start at 3:00pm so we recommend guests take the Point Judith Ferry at 1:00pm. If you plan on going home the same night, the last ferry will depart at 7:00pm, the dock is about a 15-minute walk from The Spring House.&nbsp; TRANSPORTATION FROM POINT JUDITH, RIT.F. Green Airport (PVD): Approx. 35 minute drive to Pt Judith PARKING FACILITIESAll of the parking for the Pt. Judith ferries are conveniently located right on the same road as the ferry, directly across the street, within walking distance to the ferry. Please plan to arrive at least 30 minutes before your ferry departure time. FERRY TICKETSPre-purchasing ferry tickets is recommended through the Block Island Ferry Website CAR TRANSPORTATIONCar reservations can be made by calling (866) 783-7996 ext 3 to reserve a vehicle.

Block Island Ferry

Rooms start at $325 depending on the type you are looking to reserve. To reserve rooms please visit their website or call the front desk at (401) 466-5844.

A great hotel to stay in and our usual go to! These rates do not drop after Labor Day and hold true all season. We will be looking to provide a shuttle for guests staying at this hotel over to The Spring House for the wedding.&nbsp;

Champlin's Hotel, Marina & Resort

There are many different Bed and Breakfast options around the island – often requiring a two night minimum, if you are looking to make this a little get away for yourself, this could be a great choice.&nbsp;

Block Island Inns

Block Island Reservations is the site to view other hotels around the island. This is a great option for an extended stay with cost effective rates!

Travel

Hands down - the reason we go to Block Island in September. With the next group of people 50 yards away, soak in the sounds of the beautiful surroundings, unwind, and relax.

Frederick J. Benson Town Beach

Our first stop - a drink at The Spring House on the adirondack chairs, relaxing and taking it all in. Emily recommends the Black and Blue Martini - on the rocks.

Drinks at the Spring House Hotel

A longstanding tradition - every year a local RI artist, Eben Horton (of The Glass Station Studio in Wickford, RI), hides hundreds of numbered glass floats on hiking trails, beaches, dunes, all over. Be one of the lucky ones to find one and register it with the Glass Float Project.

Block Island Glass Float Project

Tom's favorite hidden gem - his fishing spot. The perfect channel where the fish follow the boats into the Great Salt Pond in the center of the island. There are only a few parking spots so be sure to get there bright and early!

Coast Guard Beach

A unique restaurant with one of the best mudslides on the island - and some of the best sushi! Look out for a bright red oar with EJC on it - a birthday gift from the bridesmaids a few years back! Some of our other favorite restaurants include Dead Eye Dick's (delicious seafood), Poor People's Pub (awesome burgers), Winfield's (beautiful upscale dining), and Ellen's at the Airport (great breakfast).

The Oar

Another one of our favorites to stop in and take a quick walk up to the top for stunning views.

Southeast Lighthouse

Pack your sneakers and take in this unforgettable experience. Walk down several flights of stairs (beware of the walk back up) and prepare for the most breathtaking views of the beach, the bluffs, and simply beautiful scenery. A can't miss stop on the island!

Mohegan Bluffs

Emily's favorite store on the island - there is a ton of shopping and so many beautiful things to look at - enjoy!!

Block Island Trading Company

Hike to this lighthouse and walk out to the tip of Block Island. The waves crash into each other while the seals sunbathe - one of our favorite spots on the island.

North Lighthouse

If you love hiking - this is for you. With countless trails on the island, be sure to pack your shoes and hit the trails! Rodman's Hollow is one of many- be sure to check out Clay Head Preserve and Hodge Preserve as well.

Rodman's Hollow

A quaint museum on the island that has documented the fascinating history of the island. Also a great gift shop!

Block Island Historical Society

Hosted every Wednesday and Saturday from 9:00am - 11:30am, a fun little stop for local artist wares, fruits, vegetables and fun gifts. Be sure to visit Emily's favorite jeweler, Peter Gibbons, for some beautiful silver pieces.
