You are more than welcome to drive yourself and parking will be available at the venue. There will be a parking attendant stationed outside of The Inn when you first arrive who will be able to provide additional details. If you do not plan to take the bus, we'd appreciate it if you let us know so we can plan accordingly.

How far is the venue from Providence, RI?

The Barn at Mount Hope Farm is about 30 minutes from Providence, RI, but please allow for a bit more time to travel as there will likely be traffic!

What details should I know when planning what to wear?!

Cocktail attire is perfectly suitable! Please note that the ceremony and cocktail reception will be hosted outside, in a garden area. We'd suggest bringing a light jacket, and keeping in mind that you'll be walking on grass as you select your footwear! The reception and dancing will be indoors, but we may keep the barn doors open so prepare for a brisk evening breeze.
