Things to Note: 

Q: DO YOU HAVE ANY HOTEL RECOMMENDATIONS? A:&nbsp;All of the rooms at Trailside Inn have been accounted for. We recommend looking for lodging in Pittsfield or Killington as these are the closest to the Inn. Q: ARE THERE ANY OTHER EVENTS THAT I SHOULD KNOW ABOUT AROUND THE WEDDING?A:&nbsp;Please see the wedding weekend schedule on the home page.&nbsp;We are planning on a Friday night welcome gathering in lieu of a rehearsal dinner, that we would love all guests to attend. Q:&nbsp;CAN I BRING A DATE/KIDS?A:&nbsp;Your invitation will indicate all invited guests.&nbsp;&nbsp;We love your kids, but we would love to give you a night off to spend with us!&nbsp;We understand the difficulties of finding child care, however we are limiting children to close family members. Q:&nbsp;I HAVE A DIETARY RESTRICTION, WHAT WILL I BE ABLE TO EAT?A:&nbsp;We are accounting for our gluten free and vegetarian family and friends in our planning. You will be able to make note of your dietary restrictions when you RSVP for the wedding. Q:&nbsp;WAIT, THE HOTEL WEBSITE WON'T LET ME BOOK FOR YOUR WEDDING WEEKEND!A:&nbsp;Did you use our promo code "oct8"?&nbsp;The hotel is closed for all reservations during our wedding weekend, except for our guests.&nbsp;Please note, the hotel has a 2 day minimum for their reservations. Q: LOOKING FOR SOMETHING TO DO?A: Vermont has so much to offer and we hope that our guests will enjoy some of the wonderful things that we love about this state. Please check out the activities page on the Trailside website for some great suggestions of things to do in the area. Whether you're interested in checking out the beautiful scenery, enjoying some craft beer, getting in a few rounds of golf, or taking advantage of the local stores and markets, you won't be disappointed! Q: WHAT SHOULD I WEAR?A:&nbsp;Ladies - most of the events will be on grass, so feel free to dress in comfortable, grass-friendly shoes (flats or wedges). Please note temperatures tend to dip at night, and since the ceremony and reception will be outside you might want to bring a jacket or wrap. However, there will also be heaters to help keep you warm. Q: CAN I BRING MY OWN ALCOHOL/ IS IT BYOB?A:&nbsp;&nbsp;You are welcome to bring your favorite drink for the Welcome Party and After Party.&nbsp;Due to Vermont Liquor laws, all alcohol drinks during cocktail hour and the reception must be served by our caterer.​Q:&nbsp;SO YOU'RE TELLING ME I SHOULD BRING A WATER BOTTLE?A:&nbsp;Because this is the Green Mountain state, our hotel strives to be very eco-friendly.&nbsp;As such, they discourage the use of single use plastic water bottles.&nbsp;We encourage our guests to bring their own water bottles for use during the weekend.&nbsp;The hotel provides ample filtered water for your enjoyment.
