Attire - Welcome Toast on the Coast:
Casual Cocktail, white encouraged. Think all-white party in the Hamptons! Colors to consider are white, off-white, ivory, oyster, beige, tan, champagne, cream.
Attire - The Wedding:
Summer Chic
Ladies should feel easy, breezy & beautiful in fun-colored maxi, midi or cocktail length dresses that pair well with summer cocktails on the coast.
We strongly recommend footwear appropriate for grass & gravel.
Gentlemen are encouraged to wear a summer suit, or mixed suit separates in light colors. Tie & blazer optional.
Can I come to the pool party if I'm not staying onsite?
Yes! The Samoset is aware that we will have a large group hanging out at the pool area on Saturday, and that some guests may not be staying onsite at the resort.
Is there transportation to & from The Samoset for the wedding?
Due to the majority of our guests staying onsite at the resort, we've decided to forgo providing transportation. However, with the festival happening in downtown Rockport that weekend, there should be uber & lyfts available!
Menu and Dietary RestrictionsWe'll have a raw bar and passed hors d'oeuvres at cocktail hour, followed by a sit-down dinner with a first course and your selected entree. There will be a dessert bar with assorted sweet treats, one of which is gluten & dairy free! The Samoset is aware of all dietary restrictions that were submitted during your RSVP.
Bathroom Accommodations
Our guests will have access to three different bathroom facilities during our wedding. A multi-stall bathroom trailer directly behind the reception tent, the bathrooms inside the restaurant on the lower ground level of The Samoset, and the bathrooms on the first floor of the resort that are accessible by a staircase behind the reception tent.
