  • The dress code for the wedding is black-tie optional – a tux or dark suit for men, and a summery midi- or floor-length dress for women. Our venues are located on cobblestone streets and the beach, and we recommend choosing footwear accordingly.

  • The dress code for the welcome party is dressy casual. For men, this means slacks and a collared shirt (jacket optional), and for women, this means a sundress or pants and a blouse.

  • Typically, September in Nantucket is extremely pleasant – anticipate low 70s during the day, with temperatures dropping to around the high 50s at night. The weather on Nantucket can be finicky, so we definitely recommend bringing layers!

  • We’re not, but there are a number of suggestions for large hotels, smaller B&Bs, and home rentals on our Travel & Stay page!

  • Yes! Shuttles will be provided from First Congregational Church to Galley Beach following the ceremony, and back to town following the reception at 10:00 p.m.

  • No – if you stay in town, Nantucket is very walkable, and taxis, rideshare and a public shuttle are also available. Visit our Travel & Stay page for more info.

  • If you need assistance with childcare we recommend using ACK Sitters or Nannytucket. Nantucket Baby Rentals is also a great option for any child-related rental needs.
