Still nailing down the exact timeline but 4:00pm or 4:30pm most likely!

Semi-formal to formal. That being said, it will be August in New England- plan so dress for summer humidity with potential for a beach breeze at night. We want you to be comfortable! Our venue is right on the ocean with a private, sandy beach front. Feel free to come equipped if an evening swim suits your fancy! :)

Please see Hotel and Inn recommendations on the "travel" tab. There are also many great vacation rentals near by. Feel free to reach out to us if you need help.

We hope to send formal invitations out by early May. Please let me get back to you here, I need more details from the catering services. As soon as you can let us know yes/no would be greatly appreciated! You know how to contact us :)

Yes! They are welcomed. We both remember how important weddings were for us growing up, and we want to share this memory with our favorite little people.

Good question! We will be hosting an intimate afternoon of fun and dinner at our beach estate in Mattapoisett. More details to come I promise! There will be no formal rehearsal.

We will also host an intimate Brunch or Lunch. More details to follow

Sadly, no. We have a VERY small max capacity at the residence we will host these gatherings at. So, unless you get an invitation directly from us about these gatherings we simply cannot accommodate the entire guest list. We wish we could!

Shining Tides has ample parking. We are working on a shuttle service to transport back and forth from the Hampton Inn and Suits New Bedford where many people are staying.

No. The greatest gift you can give us is your time. In lieu of gifts, please consider donating to a charity that speaks to you. We will add some suggestions that are meaningful to us so, stay tuned! That being said, we would love a card with your words and well wishes! xoxo
