While we are not actively inviting children to the wedding, it is by no means a child free wedding. Doug's six year old daughter will be a part of the festivities and all four of Julie's beloved nephews will as well. To our friends with children, we suggest planning a child free trip to really ensure you are able to enjoy the entire event to the fullest. If you are unable to secure childcare, please reach out to us directly so we can discuss appropriate accommodations.  

The wedding location, Full Moon Resort, is nestled in the rustic Catskill Mountains. Full Moon has hiking trails nearby, a 6 hole Frisbee golf course, and three large fields on the grounds. If you’re interested in taking advantage of these options, please feel free to bring your own gear with you. (hiking boots, sneakers, sunscreen, Frisbee, sports gear, bocce ball set, etc.) Also, the evenings can be chilly, so bring a warm jacket or sweater.

• Bathrobe/slippers (some guest rooms have shared/hall baths)
• Toiletries/medicine; the Front Desk has emergency and basic medical equipment (bandaids, tylenol, etc) - nearest pharmacy is approximately 20 minutes from Full Moon. 
• Bug spray & Sunscreen
• Flashlight or headlamp (It gets dark in the country)
• Umbrella or raincoat (just in case)

There is no cell phone reception at Full Moon Resort.  You will start to lose cell service 20 minutes from the resort.  Complimentary phone service for all calls within the U.S. is available at all times at the Inn. There is also complimentary Wi-Fi available throughout the facility, no passwords required.  Most cell phones have Wi-Fi calling capability.  Or there are apps that you can download that use Wi-Fi for calling and messaging.

Full moon is a rustic lodging facility, not a hotel, but it's quaint, clean, and provides:

• Bath towels
• Bed linens
• Shampoo, conditioner and bar soap 
• Complimentary teas and coffee in the Valley View House (Main Inn) from the time breakfast is served until the last meal of the day is served
• Complimentary Wireless Internet 
• Free long-distance phone service from the Valley View House. Please note: cell phones do not work at Full Moon – There are no cell phone towers in this part of the Forest Preserve

Housekeeping services are not provided during the course of the stay. Extra towels may be obtained from the Front Desk as needed. 

Pets are not allowed at Full Moon. Please make other arrangements for your furry friends. 

Personal-stock alcoholic beverages are allowed in your private room, but not allowed in public areas due to State Liquor Laws. 

There is a beverage vending machine available in the billiard room; however, we encourage our guests to bring their own snacks and non-alcoholic beverages for those times that there will be no services available.  The closest store is about 20 minutes away.

All buildings are non-smoking. However, feel free to take a nice walk away from the crowd and smoke if you have to. In addition, please do not light candles, incense, or any combustible materials in guest rooms.
