What about my kids?
They might enjoy the museum and are invited to Friday Night Food and Sunday Breakfast. The Wedding is for grown-ups only.
What about gifts?
We will never be able to tell you how grateful we are that you are taking the time to attend our wedding. That is gift enough- except that Bear would really like to see you dance your butts off on Saturday.
How do we get around?
We don’t have any group transport planned, but it’s a quick train ride from the Whitney to Williamsburg. If you’re staying at The Penny, it’s a nice walk or cheap car ride to the Wedding.
Wait, did I RSVP?
If you received the link to this site from us, then we have you confirmed for the Saturday Wedding. We’ll follow up later about confirming who is coming to the museum Friday and hanging out on Sunday.
What about food?
We’ll be contacting you soon to confirm any dietary restrictions.
