Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Where is this shindig happening again?

The wedding and the reception will both be held at the world headquarters of American Flatbread, the Lareau Farm at 48 Lareau Rd  Waitsfield, VT 05673.
(see this post)

Is there a theme?

Why yes there is. The theme is 19th Century Nautical, in honor of Cheryl’s father’s naval service and both brides love of history and the ocean. Think Master and Commander and Horatio Hornblower. The brides and the wedding party will be wearing period inspired clothing.
(see this post )

What should I wear?

You are welcome to dress to match the theme, but it is in no way expected that you will. Dress should be formal, but not black tie. The wedding is on a farm in Vermont in October, so wear shoes you can walk in the grass in and be prepared for the delightfully variable New England weather. For more information, see our wedding blog.

Where should I stay?

There are many hotels and bed and breakfasts in the area. If you are coming as a group or know other people who will be coming, you might consider renting a vacation apartment or house as a group for the weekend as an economical option. Go to http://vermonttravelplanner.org/TravelPlanner/Search.aspx?catID=1 for help finding lodging, or look at the blog post dedicated to this information.

How will I get around?

If you will be coming by plane and/or will be unable to drive, please contact the people listed as contacts below to coordinate rides and carpooling. The wedding and the reception will be in one place, so you will only need transportation to and from the farm the day of. 

Can I bring a guest?

We would love if everyone could bring whomever they wanted to the wedding (as far as our hearts are concerned, the more the merrier) but unfortunately our budget does not allow us to be as hospitable as we might otherwise be. For this reason, we ask that you only bring a guest if it says “and guest” on your invitation. Feel free to bring whomever you wish with you to Vermont, as it is a beautiful state and a stunning time of year, and we would be happy to hang out with you and them on the Sunday following the wedding, but for the ceremony and reception we ask that you bring only your lovely selves. 

Is there any way I can help?

Probably! We are doing a lot of the wedding preparations ourselves with the help of family and friends. If you would like to help, please contact the family members listed below.

What’s there to do in Vermont?

All sorts of things! From shopping in downtown Burlington to agritourism all over the state (Ben and Jerry’s, cider mills, dairy farms, the Shelburne Museum) there is a ton to do in Vermont. Visit VermontVacation.com or stop by our blog in the run up to the wedding to find out about awesome stuff to do and see in the state. (see this post)

Where are you registered?

We are planning to register at Bennington Potter, Williams and Sonoma, and Bed Bath and Beyond. We will put up a notification when we have registered.

If I need more information, where can I find it / whom should I contact?


First, check on the blog. We are trying to put as much general information up on the web as possible.


If you know us primarily through Jae and the Vick/Nicholas clan, contact maid of honor Emma Vick (emma.n.vick@gmail.com) and mother of the bride Cate Nicholas (ferryroad114@aol.com). If you know us primarily through Cheryl and the Elwood/Peck/Medleys, contact bridesmaid Sarah Medley and mother of the other bride Caroline Medley. If you are a CTYer, contact Office Manager/Officiant Melissa Rashford (duh).
