Just beautiful!! On average early September days can reach a high of 75 degrees, and at night it can go down to the upper 50s. Your summer wardrobe should still work, just plan to bring a sweater or a jacket for evenings.
While we love all your kids, we have limited space at our wedding venue and have chosen it to be adults only. If you choose to bring them up for a family weekend, however, we can look into possible sitters, and they would be welcome to attend the Storm King Tour and Sunday Brunch. Please register them accordingly.
Yes, please let us know as soon as you can if you will join us in September. No, we are not printing invitations and reply cards. We thought to save a few trees and spend more on cake.
We’re not! Your presence at our wedding is all we want! Janet’s Mom also hosted a wonderful virtual housewarming in Sept 2020 when we bought our Newburgh house, so we have everything we need! If, however, you wish to contribute to our Scandinavian Adventure Honeymoon Fund, there’s a link on the registry page, and we sincerely thank you for your generosity.
Airports: Stewart Airport Is located in Newburgh, but very few flights come into it. Newark Airport is the next closest international airport. Westchester Airport is another nearby option. JFK and LaGuardia are a bit of a schlep as they are on Long Island but we still use them. Amtrak: Arrives from NYC’s Penn Station into Poughkeepsie, NY and we have arranged room blocks nearby. Reservations are absolutely required in advance. Less than 90 minute ride to Poughkeepsie. MetroNorth: Arrives from NYC’s Grand Central Station into both Beacon, NY and Poughkeepsie, and we have reserved room blocks near both. No reservations taken, but it is cheaper and comfortable. 90 mins to Beacon, 2 hours to Poughkeepsie. Be sure you’re on the train that is headed to Poughkeepsie, as there is a local train that stops in Croton Harmon and you’d have to wait for another train. Rental Cars: We’re a big fan of Enterprise as they will pick you up and drop you back off at the train. Beacon Enterprise: https://www.enterprise.com/en/car-rental-locations/us/ny/beacon-24hy.html Newburgh Enterprise: https://www.enterprise.com/en/car-rental-locations/us/ny/newburgh-24h1.html There are Ubers and Lyft in the Hudson Valley, although the wait can be a bit long, as well as local van taxis. It’s $20-25 taxi ride from the Beacon train station to Newburgh, and cash is recommended.
Most likely yes, although we can help arrange ride shares with other guests.
Yes. We’re working on the menu. Please let us know when you register any dietary preferences / requirements.
