Plan to Wed !

Saturday, July 31, 2004

Judique, Nova Scotia

Dear Family and Friends:

We are getting married on July 31, 2004 and

would like you to join in our celebration.

As summer is a busy time, we wanted to

let you know ahead of time about our intended plans.

Cape Breton Island is a wonderful place to explore and experience

so plan to spend a few days if you can. Below is

some helpful information about travel and accommodation.

Formal invitation to follow late Spring 2004.

We hope you will join us!

Karen and Glen

A Wedding and More

Our goal is to have a wedding weekend full of fun events so that we have a chance to visit with everyone and our guests have time to visit and enjoy Cape Breton.

For those who are able to come up early, we are planning to have a golf tournament at one of the many superb local courses on the Friday morning before the wedding. A “Rehearsal Dinner / Lobster Boil” will also be held on Friday evening in Judique for guests coming from outside of Nova Scotia. And we’ll be around for a casual brunch at the Maritime Inn in Port Hawkesbury on the Sunday morning.

For all your travel plans we suggest contacting Nova Scotia Tourism by calling 1-800-565-0000 to request their Doers’ and Dreamers’ Guide and visit their website at www.novascotia.com or e-mail them at info@checkinnovascotia.com.

Ceremony and Reception

The Ceremony and Reception will be held in Judique, Karen’s home town (see maps below).

Getting to Cape Breton

For those of you from outside Nova Scotia, we recommend flying in to Halifax International Airport since Judique is not much closer to the Sydney airport and most flights go through Halifax on their way to Sydney anyway. The drive from Toronto is approximately 1850km and takes over 20 hours of straight driving.

Cape Breton is about 3 hours driving time from Halifax International airport.

1. Go North on PROVINCIAL HIGHWAY 102 to TRANS CANADA 104 for 73km

2. Go East on TRANS CANADA 104 to PROVINCIAL HIGHWAY 19 for 160km

3. Go North on PROVINCIAL HIGHWAY 19 for 28km into Judique.

Car rentals are available at the Halifax airport. Please book in advance as this is a very busy time for tourism.

Accommodation

Cape Breton is a great base for lots of fun activities including golfing, hiking and just plain relaxing. Cape Breton offers a wide range of accommodation, but late July / early August is the busiest time of their tourist season. Please book your accommodations as soon as possible (preferably before January 15, 2004) to avoid disappointment from the lack of vacancies.

Block of Rooms:

A block of 30 rooms is being held under the “MacLellan / Webster Wedding” at the Maritime Inn in Port Hawkesbury, a 25 minute drive from Judique. Please contact the Inn directly at 1-888-662-7484 to make your own reservation as soon as possible.

We also anticipate dropping in at the Maritime Inn for brunch on Sunday morning after the wedding, so we expect that this will be a good gathering spot for out-of-town guests.
