Still need a hotel room for the wedding?

The Hilton still has a few rooms available, though the nightly rate may be higher, since our wedding reservation deadline has passed. However, we have reserved another block of rooms up the street at the Courtyard Marriott in Rye. They have set aside rooms for the Keane/Graham wedding at a rate of $129 per night. The rate is available through September 30 if you use this link.

Mark Graham and Meghan Keane, Engaged Mark “Uncle Grambo” Graham used to edit Gawker Media’s Defamer, going on to be one of the first editors at New York’s Vulture, before going to work for Viacom/MTV Networks as a Senior Web Editor. Meghan Keane is the Editorial Director of B5 Media; she was previously a deputy culture editor at the now-defunct-and-oft-adored-in-retrospect New York Sun, and a staff writer with Wired News. Together, they are painfully, powerfully adorable. (from the New York Observer’s list of New York’s Media Power Couples; thanks FEK!)

Hello There!

As you have no doubt heard by now, on the wintry eve of December 18, 2010, Mark Graham asked (a temporarily flu-ridden) Meghan Keane if she would be interested in joining him for all eternity in wedded bliss. Thankfully (for Mark), she said yes.

Yay!

So now that these two crazy kids have decided to live the rest of their lives together, the next step is them sealing the deal in front of you, one of their closest:

[ ] Family members

[ ] Friends

[ ] Spiritual advisors

[ ] Wealthy benefactors

(Feel free to mentally check off whichever category you fall into.)

This wedding blog will hopefully give you, the esteemed (potential) guest of the Grahamesian wedding, the details you will need to attend this auspicious event. If you find yourself unable to find any particular answer to any particular question on this here blog of bliss, you can always call or email either Mark or Meghan and they’ll get back to you, post haste.

Oh yeah, one last thing. This is going DOWN on Saturday, October 8, 2011. Be there or be square.

Directions

We are getting married just outside of New York City in lovely Westchester County. More specifically, our wedding will be taking place at the Greek Orthodox Church of Our Savior in Rye, New York, and our reception will occur just a few miles away at the Coveleigh Club, also in Rye.

Out of town guests should plan on flying into one of a few local airports: LaGuardia Airport, JFK, or, less preferably, White Plains or Newark.

If you are traveling from Manhattan, the church and hotel are a 10-15 minute cab ride from the Metro North train station in Rye. Trains leave every half hour from Grand Central.

We will have a bus taking guests from the hotel to the church and reception on Saturday, but if you are visiting for the weekend, it might make sense to rent a car.
