FAQ

Will there be transportation? Is there parking?

We have a few notes on transportation. Due to venue policies about arrival time & how dispersed our crowd is, we’re leaving your transportation to the wedding up to you. Getting an uber or lyft to the wedding shouldn’t be an issue in the general vicinity of the venue.

IF YOU'RE DRIVING...

If you can carpool with family and/or friends nearby, we’d greatly appreciate it to ensure there are enough spots!

IF YOU'RE PLANNING ON UBERING SOMEWHERE AFTER (OR CAB/LYFT)...

We highly recommend you schedule a pickup ahead of time. There likely won’t be a ton of cars readily available in Rowley that late.

If you are staying at the Doubletree in Danvers or in Newburyport...

Please feel free to utilize our shuttle after the wedding!

There will be a pickup after the wedding ends at 10pm going to Danvers.

After that it will return to pick up more people, likely returning to Danvers one more time and going to Newburyport.

We’ll have more trips to NBPT if need be afterwards.

Anyone who is not picked up right at 10pm won’t be left out on the curb until their pickup- we’ll find some room for you at the inn in the meantime 🙂

How early can I arrive at the venue?

4 PM! The ceremony will start at 4:30 PM.

Is everything at the same location?

Yes! The ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception are on the same property. Briar Barn Inn & The Grove are adjacent to each other.

What should I wear?

The wedding day attire is evening cocktail. We want to see everyone looking like a million bucks!

Ladies: Knee to floor length dresses or jumpsuit.

Fellas: Suit & tie

Will the wedding be indoors or outdoors?

It’s official: everything will be indoors!

What if I have dietary restrictions?

There is a spot on the RSVP to list any allergies or dietary restrictions so that we can accommodate you. We are also working with the venue to ensure none of the passed hors d’oeuvres or desserts have nuts to avoid any unhappy accidents 🙂

What's the parking situation?

There’s free parking on site. If you live locally and are not staying, we appreciate anyone willing to carpool.

Can I bring a plus 1?

We kindly ask only those listed on the invitation attend. We’ve done our best to include everyone’s long-term partners that we know of, which would have been indicated on your invitation. For any other plus 1 requests, please reach out to the bride or groom. We’ll do our best to accommodate, but please know our headcount is limited by the venue.

Are my kids invited?

Again, due to venue space restrictions, we kindly ask only those listed on the invitation attend. The wedding is 18+ only.

Is it open or cash bar?

We couldn’t throw a Pezzella x Tyler & friends bash without an open bar 🙂
