travel
we hope to make your trip as easy as possible - this is everything you need to know about getting here, where to stay + what to do in the area.
getting there
all wedding events will take place at our home:
410 ice pond rd
patterson, NY 12563
by car (+ parking info)
parking is extremely limited at our home. even if you are not staying at spring hill suites, we ask you park there and TAKE the shuttle bus. shuttle buses WILL go to/from our home and SPRINGHILL SUITES DANBURY, where we’ve blocked rooms. even if you are not a guest at springhill suites, you are permitted to park there.
by train
the metro north train from grand central station to southeast is under 2 hrs. a local taxi can give you a lift to our house (10 min) or the springhill suites hotel (15 min).
by plane
while lga is a little closer, you can reasonably fly into any of the nyc airports. for the fastest trip up, we recommend renting a car or getting a car service like lyft/uber or carmel limo. you could also take public transit to grand central or harlem 125th and train up from there.
