Whether you’re in the mood for hiking, breweries, or cute little towns to wander through—we’ve got you covered!
The best airport to fly in to would be ALB.
It's roughly 45 minutes from the venue and hotel.
We highly recommend booking a rental car in advance, especially if you’re flying into Albany Airport—it’s a small airport and rental cars can be limited.
You can book through Hertz, Avis, or Budget (or your preferred rental company), but the sooner, the better to ensure availability.
Due to limited space, we can only accommodate guests who are formally invited.
Thank you for understanding.
As much as we love your little ones, this wedding in exclusively for adults, with the exception of immediate family who are part of our wedding party.
We’re going with semi-formal—think cocktail dresses, jumpsuits, or suits (ties optional). The vibe is elevated but relaxed, so come looking sharp but ready to move!
The ceremony and some parts of the evening will be outdoors (weather permitting), so bring a layer in case it gets chilly and shoes you won’t regret wearing on grass or gravel.
Color inspo: We’re loving earthy fall tones like rust, olive greens, and warm neutrals—but wear what makes you feel great!
Yes—you’re welcome to wear black! It’s classic and chic. Just skip anything super casual (jeans, t-shirts, sneakers) or anything too close to white or ivory—we want to keep the spotlight on the couple.
The wedding party will be in shades of forest green and plumb, so if you’d rather not match the crew, you might avoid those tones. Otherwise, dress in what makes you feel great and ready to celebrate—just keep it semi-formal and dance-friendly!
If you’re staying at The Woodhouse Lodge or Island Green, you can park right at your accommodations.
If you’re staying somewhere else, please hop on the shuttle from the Spark by Hilton (formerly Best Western) in Coxsackie, NY. It’s quick and easy—and the best way to get to the venue.
Just a heads-up: There’s no parking available at The Woodhouse Lodge for guests not staying there, so the shuttle is the way to go!
The wedding will be outdoors, with both the ceremony and cocktail hour taking place on grass/gravel—so plan your footwear accordingly! The reception will follow outside, we’ll be spending a good amount of time outside (weather permitting)!
Our wedding is on October 4, 2025, in the Hudson Valley—right in the heart of fall! 🍂
You can expect daytime highs around 64°F and nighttime lows near 41°F. October in the Hudson Valley typically brings crisp, cool air and the start of the beautiful fall foliage.
Since we're going to be outdoors, we recommend:
-
Bringing a light jacket or wrap for the evening
-
Wearing comfortable shoes suitable for grassy areas
We’ll keep an eye on the forecast as the date approaches and will update you if there’s any significant change. Fingers crossed for perfect fall weather!
