By Train or Car

LIRR: Take the Long Island Rail Road to the Bay Shore station. David Brothers Taxi service is available at the station for a quick ride to the ferry terminal.

Driving: Navigate to the Fire Island Ferries terminal in Bay Shore (99 Maple Ave). Paid parking is available across the street from the terminal for the weekend.

Where to Stay

Make a weekend out of it! Here are the best ways to stay near the celebration.

House Rentals

The best way to experience Fire Island is by renting a beach house in Kismet with family or a group of friends. Houses are walking distance to the venue, the beach, and the ferry.

  • Airbnb & VRBO: Search for properties in "Kismet, NY" for the weekend of Oct 1-3.
  • Local Realtors: Reach out to local real estate agents on Fire Island who manage weekly and weekend off-season rentals.

*We recommend booking early, as fall weekends are popular and inventory is limited.

Hotel Lodging

If you prefer standard hotel accommodations, there are options both on the island and on the mainland near the ferry terminal.

The Bay Shore Inn (Mainland)

Located minutes from the Bay Shore ferry terminal. Perfect for those who prefer not to stay on the island overnight.

Ocean Beach Hotels (Fire Island)

Hotels like Clegg's Hotel or The Palms are located in neighboring Ocean Beach. Note: You will need to take a water taxi from Ocean Beach to Kismet for the wedding.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the dress code?

Beach Formal. We want you to look nice but be comfortable! Think light suits (no ties required), midi or maxi dresses, and elegant jumpsuits. The ceremony will take place near the sand, so block heels, sandals, or even barefoot are encouraged.

What will the weather be like?

Early October on Fire Island is usually beautiful, with crisp air and sunny skies. Highs are typically in the upper 60s to low 70s, cooling down at night. We highly recommend bringing a light jacket or shawl for the evening.

Are kids invited?

While we love your little ones, our wedding is going to be an adults-only event so that everyone can relax and enjoy the evening. We appreciate you making arrangements ahead of time.

Are there cars on Fire Island?

No! Fire Island is famously car-free. You will get around Kismet entirely by foot or by bicycle. Please plan your packing accordingly (rolling luggage is your friend on the boardwalks!).
