Greetings!
Hello friends and family,
Welcome to our wedding website! We are overjoyed to be taking this next step in life together and excited for you to share with us in our joy. See below for details about the wedding and to help plan for travel.
The best gift to us would be to have you share in our special day, but should you wish to contribute in some other way, then a gift towards our honeymoon would be very gratefully received. There is a link to our Bed Bath & Beyond Registry, below, and we've added a few products we love to our wishlist, as well, if you'd prefer to mark the occasion in another way. We appreciate all of your support, and are so excited to celebrate with you!
Thanks for visiting our wedding website. We hope to see you on our big day!
With Love,
Ellen & Jacob

More Information:
~ Where should I fly in? ~
Durham, NH is near to both the Manchester, NH and Boston, MA airports.
- Manchester (MHT) is closer to the venue, but smaller, so flights are less frequent and will likely require a connection. Ground transportation options include rideshares (Uber, Lyft, etc.) and shuttle services that should be arranged in advance.
- Boston Logan (BOS) is a major international hub with direct flights to/from most cities; however, navigation in and out of the city may be more difficult. Ground transportation options include bus to Portsmouth (www.ridecj.com) or AMTRAK Downeaster from Boston North Station to Durham (~1mi. from the Holiday Inn)
~ Where should I stay? ~
We have a block of rooms at the Holiday Inn Express (UNH), Durham, NH (use group code HUW, when booking). The Holiday Inn Express is a quick drive from the Wedding Venue, and we will be providing transportation between this hotel and the venue for the ceremony and reception. Click the Holiday Inn button, above, to make a reservation (please book by April 14).
The venue is also nearby (around 20 minutes) to both Portsmouth, NH and the New Hampshire seacoast, should you desire to take in the New England summer atmosphere during your trip. See the links below for a few alternative lodging options.
~ Picking your dinner selection? ~
