travel guide
Our wedding will take place at our home base in Wassaic, affectionately known as “The Bog.” Many of you have spent time with us here at the family compound we share with Gaye, Belle, Jane, Johnny, (and Arthur, Carli + Loosie!)
The land is filled with ash, oak, and walnut forests, meadows of goldenrod, gardens that feed us, and work that sustains us.
We couldn’t imagine celebrating anywhere else - and we can’t wait to share it with all of you.
