KIM AND ANDREW'S WEDDING INFO
19TH MAY 2007

Firstly, we'd like to thank you for making the effort to come to our special day …….

The wedding base is in Freeport.

We recommend that you fly into Boston, for those of you who are not hiring a car, you can take the Concord Trailways shuttle (coach) (which you get right outside customs at Logan, Boston airport). We can arrange to pick you up in Portland and take you to Freeport if you let us know when you are arriving (Freeport is roughly 25 minute drive from Portland towards the coast).

However, at Portland Bus station you can get a cab 24 hours. They generally sit outside the bus station but you can also pre-book them on 207 671 0123.

We know that many of you have already looked/even booked your accommodation but for those who haven’t here is a link to the Harraseeket Inn. The reception/wedding party hotel (where you get a discount if you mention the Benson/Dodge wedding) The Harraseeket. A very nice place indeed. In addition, if this is not quite what you fancy you can still contact them as they have a wide knowledge of all the accommodation in the area and are very helpful.

We are getting married at The Wilson Memorial Chapel, Ocean Point, East Boothbay at 2.30pm. As far as getting to the wedding itself on the day in Ocean Point. We will be providing transport from the parking lot of the Inn about 2 hours before the wedding. There is a muster point at the bottom of the car park. Our two groomsman Dave Vincent & George Stevens will be overseeing this.

On Thursday 17th May 2007 there will be two events for the wedding party...one for the men and one for the women.

A Bridal shower for the ladies will be hosted by Christine and Charlene at Charlene's House and it will be a luncheon from noon onwards.

For the men: The shooting event will occur Thursday afternoon. It is being co-ordinated by Dave Vincent and Andrew.

Friday is rehearsal day for us in the wedding party so you need to organise yourselves. There is plenty to do in and around Freeport so have fun.

Sunday afternoon there will be a gathering at Gritty McDuff's in Freeport, which will feature music (from the various musos about) and Gritty McDuff's fine beers and food.
