What is the dress code?

"Funky Formal - Estate Chic" In honor of our celebration taking place at the stunning Crane Estate: we're thinking timeless elegance with a modern, playful twist. Think dapper suits a la James Bond (shout out Matt), but don’t shy away from color, pattern, and whimsy (a la Julia)— We can't wait to see you bring the LOOKS but also make sure you'll be able to break it down with us on the dance floor... Does this leave you with more questions? Visit our Attire Mood Board section of this page site!

Where should I stay?

We have reserved rooms at The Hotel at Cape Ann Marina. This is smack dab in the middle between the church and the reception. It is located in the fun city of Gloucester known for its buzzing downtown and deep fishing history. We're hoping this is a perfect spot for people to land while visiting us in Cape Ann for the weekend! We will be providing transportation from the hotel to the reception. There are rooms available for both Friday and Saturday as well as many Saturday only rooms. The Crane Estate is quite remote, and Ubers are slim. We highly recommend staying over after the reception instead of driving. Fall in New England is a very popular time to visit, we encourage you to book as soon as you know you will be attending so we can make sure everyone has what they need!

Can I bring my children?

Though we dearly love your sweet children, we are kindly asking for an adults only wedding outside of our ring bearers and flower girls. Let's let loose!
