Q & A

Travel

We can't wait for friends and family from all over the US and UK to join together with us in New York! We hope you spend some time in New York City on your travels, but recommend staying out on Long Island on Saturday and Sunday night for easy travel to our wedding. If you are flying into JFK or LGA airports, there is car hire available at either airport for driving out to Long Island (about a one hour drive). If you are looking to stick with public transportation, we recommend flying into JFK airport and using their AirTrain to connect to the Long Island Railroad (LIRR). If you are traveling to Long Island by train to our hotel block, your destination is the <a href="https://www.mta.info/stations/deer-park" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Deer Park LIRR station</a> (around a 1.5 hour total trip from the airport), and there is a free shuttle from the train station to our hotel for guests. You can browse train schedules <a href="https://www.mta.info/schedules" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">here</a> or use Google Maps for detailed directions.

Our venue

Our wedding will be at The Pavilion at Sunken Meadow, a lovely white-sand beach and state park just 10 minutes from where Kim grew up, and where her mom is often found getting steps in on the boardwalk. There is ample free private parking for guests driving to the venue.

The Hampton Inn is a short walk from local dining options and less than a mile from Commack South Shopping Center. A free shuttle goes to the Deer Park Long Island Railroad station, which will take you into NYC (1 hour) or JFK airport (1.5 hours).
