because beach days are the best days
Once upon a time, in the summer of 2017, Ben and Alley took their first trip together to the North Fork.
Ok, technically they didn’t go together - Ben was staying on Shelter Island, where he for years would visit the Nussbaums, and Alley was across the bay, at her grandmas cottage in East Marion with friends. The girls agreed to take the ferry to Shelter Island for a day adventure - and after a brief sailing incident (more on that another day) Alley and Ben have been together ever since.
We are so excited to spend a weekend here with YOU. YES YOU :)

ON A SATURDAY
ON THE NORTH FORK OF LONG ISLAND
DESTINATION
North Fork, Long Island
Historically a fisherman village and oyster hub, the North Fork is an unique gem on the East Coast. A less shiny (and less sandy) sibling to the Hamptons, the NoFo offers otherworldly pebble beaches, tranquil swims in the bay, heavenly bike paths, surreal sunsets and magic soil. Vineyards, lavender fields and the best tomatoes in the world thrive here (sorry Vermont tomatoes, there’s something about that salt water).
We’re excited to spend a weekend with you in a place that is so special to us.
GETTING THERE
-
By Plane
All NYC airports will do the trick, but JFK is by far the closest!
To get even closer, some planes fly into MacArthur Airport, getting you straight to Long Island. Flights leave from Philly, Boston and more.
We suggest renting a car once you arrive, the Nofo is another 2 hours from the airport.
-
By Car
Did someone say roadtrip?! Getting here by car is definitely the best, it gives you room to explore on your own.
Word to the wise - avoid hitting the road between 5-7pm on Friday, it can double the trip.
-
By Train/Bus/Ferry
LONG ISLAND RAILROAD: Penn Station > Greenport
HAMPTON JITNEY: Departs from Manhattan > Greenport
CROSS SOUND FERRY: New London, CT > Orient
*If you don’t have a car, grab a spot at The Greenporter Hotel for complimentary transport to ceremony.
