FAQ
-
What will the weather be like?
Late September on the Vineyard is pure magic—sunny skies, salty breezes, and just enough crisp in the air to make you reach for a cozy sweater after sunset. The summer crowds have gone home and the island feels like a secret getaway.
-
Will there be transportation at the wedding?
Yes! We will be providing a van shuttle to wedding events for all out of town guests who book their stay in Oak Bluffs. We will contact you with your pickup time and location. Please note, that if you stay outside of Oak Bluffs, we most likely will not be able to accommodate you in the pickup schedule. Please remember car seats for your little ones!
-
When should I book my travel?
The sooner the better! Unfortunately, Martha's Vineyard does not have last minute deals so waiting any later may lessen your experience on the island. Please remember to book within Oak Bluffs if you wish to use the wedding transportation.
-
Should we bring a car?
While having a car on the island may be convenient, it is certainly not necessary. The island has an intricate system of buses, as well as taxis and uber/lyft (easy to catch down-island, do not rely on for any up-island adventures) and even car rental services. If you would like to bring your car on the island, consider booking well in advance, as the boat reservations fill up quickly. Visit steamshipauthority.com for more information.
