Christian and Mara's Wedding

Just got off the phone with the sales office at the Marriott. The weddin' room block is confirmed, as are the rates! I'd mentioned rates a while back, but if you missed them, here they are again:

Courtyard by Marriott; Norwood, MA

$89/night, king
$109/night, two queen beds

To book your reservation for the weddin', call Central Reservations 1-800-228-9290 for the Courtyard by Marriott in Norwood, MA. Just say that you're with the Karapetian/Daly wedding and you should get the special rate.

Driving directions are here in terms of getting from the hotel to the ceremony/reception site.

By the way, if a lot of people are planning to come together on the same flight, please let me know! I'll look into booking a group rate thing with your airline of choice.

Also, in case I didn't mention, I recommend for those of you travelling by plane to fly into Logan Airport. Don't bother with Providence - it's a waste of your time and money. Sure, you'll save a couple of bucks, but it's a big pain in the ass to get to/from there. Whatever you save on airfare will be spent on extra travel time.

First off - did you know that our wedding is going to start at noon? We realized that the time isn't printed on the invitations a while back, so I put the time on the reply card. I wanted to make sure that's clear.

You have probably wondered what sort of thrills and excitement await you in our lovely city of Boston, Massachusetts. Well, wonder no more! While the Saturday of your visit will be spent indulging us two nerds in our sweet matrimonial goo, you will no doubt be antsy to get the hell away from us. Here is a handy list of things to do in the city that are guaranteed fun, as well as useful local information...

CNN says that you should go visit Spectacle Island, and I know that I sure wouldn't mind checking it out!
