One of our dreams for our wedding weekend is to build community. We have a special evening planned for you to do just that!
The Spirit of Massachusetts, also known as 'The Ship' at the Pilot House, holds many special memories for our families. During Eric's first trip to meet Jillian's family in Maine, we spent the afternoon on 'The Ship'. This tradition continued with each member of the Mathew's family during their first experiences in KPT with the Friot's. 2023 will also be the last year to enjoy partying on 'The Ship' while it's floating. Come ready to party like a pirate and sing like a Captain to live music from the incredible Gatlins! - Passed hors d'oeuvres and drinks will be provided - - You are welcome and encouraged to come and go at your leisure - - Coastal Cocktail Attire - Flare and Personality Encouraged - Parking at the restaurant is first come first serve and likely to be full.
