FAQs

Question

Where is the ceremony and reception?

Answer

Both the ceremony and reception will be held at: Peirce Farm at Witch Hill 116 Boston Street Topsfield, MA 01983 Peircefarm.com If the weather allows, our ceremony will be held in front of mansion on the lawn. The cocktail hour will be held on the outdoor terrace, next to the mansion. The reception will be held in the barn, toward the back of the property. In the event of inclement weather, the ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception will also be held in the indoor barn.

Question

Is there parking onsite at the venue?

Answer

The ceremony and reception are in the same place and there is parking available for about 55 cars. There will be an attendant to help direct you. We are encouraging guests to carpool or take a ride share service to the venue. Note: Please DO NOT park by the fountain or the house. The gravel parking directly next to the barn is being reserved for anyone with mobility challenges.

Question

Will there be transportation provided to and from the venue?

Answer

We will not be providing transportation pre or post celebration. Many guests will be staying at various locations (not just one hotel), so we opted out of arranging one transportation method. As mentioned above, there are about 55 parking spaces available at the venue. We are strongly encouraging guests to carpool with other family/friends or take a rideshare service if possible. Please contact Katara if you plan on parking at the venue so we can ensure there is space. Thanks for understanding.

Question

Is there a dress code?

Answer

The dress code for the wedding is cocktail attire. Please keep in mind that temperatures in October in Massachusetts are unpredictable and can range from 40-70 degrees! We are hoping the ceremony will be held outdoors, so please bring a light jacket since most of the celebration will take place in the evening.
