What are the grounds for the modification of a court order after divorce?
If you are hoping to modify an existing court order, whether an alimony modification, custody modification, child support modification or related to a parent relocating, contact my firm, The Law Office of Patricia A. Sullivan for assistance. I have served as counsel in a wide range of family law matters for more than 30 years, and I am very familiar with the process of seeking and obtaining a modification. The most commonly requested modification is a child support modification.
Do I need an attorney for modifying the terms of my family court order?
It is important that you consult with an attorney if you want to request a modification. How your case is presented to the court can make a difference in the decision. I have extensive experience serving as counsel in all divorce and family law matters, and can professionally prepare and present your modification request for you.
The first step is to contact me so I can review your situation and advise you about what can be done to help you. I can also assist in fighting a modification if my client believes that it is not fair, or that any false information is being submitted to the court. My objective is to help my clients resolve these issues quickly, and with the least amount of difficulty, so that he or she can move ahead with life without a court matter pending.


Perhaps you've seen the new show on Netflix, Tidying Up or you've heard of Marie Kondo and her philosophy of how to go through your home deciding what to keep and what to let go. In her "KonMari Method" she speaks about honing our sense of what brings us joy. So the idea is we hold an item in our hands and if it brings joy, keep it. If it doesn't, we thank it for what it gave to us, and we let it go.
This isn't an easy task to take on. Perhaps some areas of your home or life will be easy to find joy in, but other items or categories may feel very difficult.
It is all the more challenging to consider applying a philosophy like this after a death.
Our survival instincts in grief tell us to "hold on" to everything – letting go is completely counter-intuitive. Because we were unable to keep the person, we turn to their things to find comfort – to find them. None of this is wrong, it just is.
One of the episodes of Tidying Up featured a recent widow who decided it was time to go through her husband's things and make a significant purge. As a deeply sentimental person I felt slightly jarred by her desire to go through and get rid of things just 9 months after his death. But, for her, many of those items were no longer "sparking joy" – they were symbols of powerful pain and grief.
She selected her favorite items of his to keep – things that clearly brought light to her face. And the rest, she donated. It was painful, she cried a lot. But a weight was lifted and in the end, she was glad it was done.
When you feel ready. This will be a different timeline for everyone and you will know when you are ready to begin. Even if your starting point is just a junk drawer of theirs, starting is starting. If your first go at "tidying" can have encouraging results it will help you stick with the plan.
We all experience sentimentality in different degrees. For some, items are symbolic and the sentiment attached to them is a powerful force that brings back a rich flood of sensation and memory. For someone who feels that way, it may be hard to understand that other people may simply not have that strength of attachment to items. They may see sentiment in places, memory, or stories and so their joy might take up a little less space.
The important thing is to not privilege one of these types or styles above the other. Wherever we find joy we need to treasure it.
To that end, it is not better to get rid of more if it costs you joy. And for some of us, more items or things might bring us joy than someone else. I think in grief especially, it is important to not be too hard on yourself and to not push these questions too much. The thing about joy and memory and meaning is that they are all dynamic, just as we are. Therefore, something that brought you joy 10 years ago may not hold the same sensation for you now. Things can sometimes surprisingly change from joyful to burdensome.
The KonMari Method isn't something you apply once in your life and it's done. It's something that should be continually used as a tool to help weed through the garden of life and home to ensure that we keep the things that truly give the peace of joy.

John's curiosity with science and technology began at the age of 7 with the country's space program. With a subscription his parents gave him to Popular Science and Popular Mechanics along with other periodicals and Walter Cronkite's evening broadcast he studied everything space. He followed the lives of America's test pilots and astronauts who piloted Mercury, Gemini and Apollo spacecraft. His curiosity in how things were built led him to dismantling the family's window fan, toaster and lawnmower. Taking apart things was easy. Putting them back together, well, not so much. John grew up in New York state and Massachusetts with 2 brothers and 2 sisters. He received a BA in Economics and Sociology from the University of Maryland.

The internet has become the source of information on products and business for users around the world. Mastering even the most basic concepts of internet marketing can increase income for any online or offline business.
Being able to market a product, service or information, globally online, to the demographic of your choice is very convenient and ideal for those on a tight budget. The use of internet marketing still does not appeal to all businesses or all customers, mostly for security reasons.
However, it can attract a whole new segment of online customers and enhance any business.
Search engine optimisation (SEO) is an aspect of internet marketing that allows any business to advertise their product and business by focusing on the search facilities of major search engines (e.g. Google, Yahoo, etc).
Whilst there is a lot more to comprehensive art of internet marketing, SEO is a cost effective strategy for every static web site that hangs out in cyber space with no passing traffic. And there are millions of them!
Whilst SEO is not simple and requires the services of a skilled technician, it has been far more cost effective for my clients than the offline equivalent of renting offline advertising space on roadside billboards.
I dare say that internet marketing will also spell the end for printed book-form directories. Even now, my clients are giving me feedback that they are expensive and largely ineffective. The reason is that every body searches online. So why not go where the customers are?
Although internet marketing provides global reach in a very cost effective manner, it does come with its own disadvantages. These are mostly to do with the perception of poor security as the result of the rising incidence of cyber-criminals, mean spirited hackers and the prevalence of PC viruses.


34th Street is a major cross-town street in the New York City borough of Manhattan, connecting the Lincoln Tunnel and Queens-Midtown Tunnel. Like many of New York City's major crosstown streets, it has its own bus lines (M16 and M34) and foursubway stops serving the A C E trains at Eighth Avenue, the 1 2 3 trains at Seventh Avenue, the B D F M N Q R and PATH trains at Herald Square, and the 4 6 <6> trains at Park Avenue. In April 2010, the New York City Department of Transportation proposed to add bus rapid transit along the 34th Street corridor. To create exclusive lanes for buses, the street would be converted to one-way westbound operation west of Sixth Avenue and one-way eastbound operation east of Fifth Avenue; a pedestrian plaza would be created between Fifth and Sixth avenues.
At the west end of the street one finds the Hudson River, the West Midtown Ferry Terminal, the West 30th Street Heliport, the Hudson River Greenway, the West Side Highway, and the Jacob K. Javits Convention Center, New York City's main convention center. On the West Side, 34th Street is in the neighborhood Hell's Kitchen and overlooks the West Side railway yard. On Tenth Avenue is a McDonald's with a drive-through and (a rarity in Manhattan) its own small parking lot. On Ninth is B&H Photo Video, a large retailer of photographic and electronic equipment.
Further east at Eighth and 33rd, the Post Office and Penn Station dominate on the south side of the street, serving Amtrak trains to destinations all over the United States and Canada, and Long Island Rail Road and New Jersey Transit trains to suburbs. Above Penn Station sits Madison Square Garden, which calls itself "the world's most famous arena". The grand stairs of the James Farley Post Office are built on the scale of the former Penn Station. The architecture of the post office gives a flavor of what the area was like in the height of the railroad era.
34th Street is a major shopping street. Though it endured a decline in the 1970s, it rebounded late in the 20th century with new stores and new energy. A giant video board and light display at 34th and Broadway is like a mini Times Square. BetweenSeventh Avenue and Broadway, one will find Macy's, the famous department store immortalized in the Christmas movie Miracle on 34th Street. It claims to be the "world's largest store." The annual Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade ends on 34th Street. A block south of 34th, at Sixth Avenue and 33rd Street, is the Manhattan Mall, an indoor shopping mall built inside what had been the flagship location of the Gimbel's department store. Branches of large chain stores also operate between 8th and 5th Avenues.
East of Herald Square and the hectic shopping district, the influence of the East Side and the sedate corporate office towers of the neighborhoods Kips Bay and Murray Hill starts to take hold. On Fifth Avenue one finds the Empire State Building. The tallest building in the city, it stands on a rare ledge of solid Manhattan schist dominating the skyline. Slightly north, at 38th Street and 5th Avenue is Lord & Taylor; the oldest department store in the United States.
At the far end one finds bulky luxury residential buildings and a great number of dogs patronizing the pet care parlors that serve the pure-bred loving populations of Kips Bay, which is the name of both the neighborhood and its eponymous bend in the East River where 34th Street ends. At the riverbank are the FDR Drive, the East River Greenway for bicycling to the south end of Manhattan, a small parking lot for New York University, the East 34th Street Ferry Landing (New York Water Taxi, SeaStreak), and the East 34th Street Heliport.

Regular people may wish for Amazon gift cards. We would die for CVS gift cards. We spend so damn much $$$ at CVS on insulin and a myriad of diabetes supplies.
Regular people may wish for restaurant gift cards. We do dine out but we would rather get Whole Foods gift cards. Those healthy diabetes-friendly foods, especially gluten-free foods, cost an arm and a leg. If we could have a shopping spree at Whole Foods it would be so much fun.
Regular people may wish for a new phone. Eh. We want a used iPhone please so that we could use it with Dexcom Share and activate a phone line for V. A new phone is just too much fuss but a gently used iPhone 5 of any variety would do the job nicely. Alternatively, a gently used Android phone may be good as well for a DIY CGM in the cloud rig. See more about that below.
Regular people may wish for FitBit. I understand it can track your sleep patterns. Why on earth would we want a device to remind us how often we have to wake up at night? Give us a Pebble watch please! As I mentioned, there is a DIY rig out there, called Nightscout, that we could set up and then use Pebble watches to monitor V's BG remotely.
Regular people may ask for a Coach Purse. Pfffft! What we would love is a stylish, comfortable, extremely durable, gender neutral backpack that is just the right size to fit all the Diabetes supplies. It would not be too small or too big, and it has to be adjustable so that it could be comfortably worn by V or by us. Now, go find that, I challenge you!
Regular people may ask for fine chocolates. We would ask for a supply of glucose tabs. Except right now we are well stocked on glucose tabs, so maybe we'll settle for fine chocolates for the time being.
Regular people may ask for fun electronic toys. Us, not so much. Please give us all the AAA batteries that we'll use for the pump and hold the toys. We have too many electronic gadgets already. Except for an artificial pancreas, of course. That, we want yesterday!
Regular people may ask for video games. Ain't no one got time for that! We'd like another bike. Bikes are one of our favorite ways to manage BG! Yes, I fully recognize that we already have a bike problem in our family. We have four people and 6 bikes. Kids alone have 5 bikes between the two of them. But see, I don't have one of my own. I'd love to get a Beach Cruiser so that when we go on family rides I don't have to rent one. With the basket please, so that we can dump all diabetes supplies and snacks there. Any color will do.
Regular people may ask for fine jewelry. We would prefer a stylish Medical Alert bracelet for V. Or I will happily accept a Diabetes Awareness necklace, such as this one.
And then there is wine and coffee. You cannot go wrong with those. When it comes to wine and coffee, we are just like all other regular people. Except maybe we need it even more than regular people.
After T1D diagnosis many families' lives are turned upside down. There may be a lot of worry, confusion, even trauma. We were lucky to avoid a medical emergency and thus had a "soft landing", if you will, into T1D world. But just as all other families, we walked out of the hospital with a tremendous burden.
I remember one post-discharge moment very vividly. We were driving home back from the hospital and were a few blocks away from home. As we were driving down the street it struck me how surreal it felt. Here we were, coming back home as if we just went out to dinner or to visit friends. For a second I really wanted to pretend that it's all it was. We just went somewhere and were coming back. But the reality, as surreal as it felt, was that we were coming home to a very different life. In a blink of an eye V went from perfectly healthy to having a chronic medical condition. Abruptly, we all went from a "normal' life to life with T1D.
When we got home, first thing we did was go through the fridge and cupboards and inventory the food. Can V eat this now? How many carbs in a serving? How can we make this work? Going through the kitchen actually provided some relief, as we realized that we could continue to make most of the meals we usually make, with some modifications. For the first time in a long time, if ever, we had to plan breakfast ahead.
We ate dinner at the hospital that night, so it was soon time to put kids to bed. Once V fell asleep, I went to her room to check on her. She was sleeping so peacefully, as if nothing ever happened. As a cruel juxtaposition, on her desk there was all kinds of T1D paraphernalia – meter, strips, needles, insulin, juice box. My baby girl has diabetes. Can't hide it, can't even pretend it's not there. Was this really our reality now or was I watching someone else's life? I walked back to our bedroom and lost it a little, for the first time since diagnosis. There was no time for feelings in the hospital. It was too busy with learning and practicing, doctors and nurses, procedures and tests. And there was support – we were not alone in caring for our daughter and in fact she was mostly taken care of by others while we watched and learned. But that evening, in the quiet of our home, away from the business of the hospital, the reality began to sink in for the first time. This was now ours. The multiple BG checks, the injections, carbs calculations and meal planning, constant monitoring and assessment of symptoms, management of highs and lows, checking for ketones, constant planning ahead. This was our daily burden now. And the losses became more real, too. We lost the ability to be spontaneous, we could no longer leave the house without diabetes supplies – not even to walk our dog around the block. My husband and I had just gotten back from a weekend trip away. This was over for us for a foreseeable future. Forget about trips, it would be a while before our kids could go to their grandparents for a sleepover again. Would we even be able to go out on a quick date? Who would take care of V if we were not around? "I know it's all going to be OK, but I find all this very upsetting" were the words that came out of my mouth that night, as I was fighting back the tears.
T1D is relentless. Pretty quickly we were forced to accept the fact that there is no such thing is stability. Please do not ever ask a T1D parent if their child's diabetes is under control. It's a question that at best we don't even know how to begin responding to, and at worst feel enraged about. No matter how well we attempt to control all the moving parts – medication, diet, activity, stress, illness, and a million more – things still happen. BG can vary wildly, sometimes without any rhyme and reason. T1D management is a 24 hr a day, everyday job. You cannot take a break, you cannot take a vacation, you cannot forget about it. And even when you do everything right you can still lose. It does not play fair. It is not fair.
For now a great deal of this burden is on us, parents, as it should be. We often help V with her pump and CGM, count carbs, prick her fingers, plan ahead, pack her things, check on her and give her reminders about her care. But she's already taking on more than any 9-year-old should have. The other night she had a sleepover at her grandparents' and needed to be woken up in the middle of the night to correct high BG, as her grandparents do not know how to operate the pump. If she is ever at a party or an event she needs to read labels, count the carbs and make a number of important decisions. We are always there for support, in person or by phone, but she has a lot of work cut out for her. She stepped up to the plate like a true champ and is able to do virtually everything independently when needed. It is not fair but it's what she has to do to keep her life as "normal" as possible and do what other 9-year-olds take for granted – activities, playdates, sleepovers, not having a parent hovering over her shoulder at her friend's Birthday party. In some ways she had to grow up too fast and demonstrate maturity and responsibility well beyond her age. For now, we help her carry this burden and take it off of her shoulders as much as possible. But every day she gets older it becomes less and less ours and more and more hers. And unless there is a cure soon, the day when it becomes all hers is fast approaching.
Here is a glimpse into our life with T1D. Yesterday – 11/13/14 – was a pretty ordinary day. It could have started at 1:34 AM. 1:34 AM is a permanent setting on my alarm clock. Often my husband and/or I wake up to check V in the middle of the night. But yesterday there was no need for it, her BG was stable and in a reasonable range, so we just let it be.
Our morning started as usual around 7 AM. I had forgotten to take pictures right away, but typically we have breakfast at 7:30 and V checks her BG and gives herself insulin. Yesterday morning her breakfast number was awesome.
Here V's PDM shows that she tested at 7:30 AM and had a BG of 131. This photo was taken at 8 AM after she had breakfast. Note the upward arrow on the CGM. Her BG is quickly taking off.
I finish packing kids' lunches. On the menu today is quinoa with GF chicken nuggets. Everything has to be carefully measured and carbs accurately counted. Every day I send a note with an itemized list of all lunch items and their corresponding carb counts.
1/3 cup of quinoa = 15 g.
4 GF chicken nuggets = 14 g.
I am usually not privy to V's BG at school but it is not necessary. If there are any concerns the nurse will call me. And when I pick V up from school I always check her PDM and her CGM to see what's been going on.
Thursday is a short day so I pick up kids after lunch at school and we head to piano lesson. V wants a snack. I take a look at Dexcom and I do not like what I see.
282 and going up, which is typical after a meal. Also look at the graph and note that after breakfast BG went up and stayed up.
Since she wants a snack anyway, she checks her BG and gives herself a bolus while her brother is starting with piano lesson.
After piano we come home for an hour to rest and change, and then head over to YMCA for gymnastics. We always have to look at BG before class starts and decide what to do about her pump settings. In this case, CGM says that BG is 188 and holding steady. I think about it. V has been running high most of the day and I could leave everything as is and let her "burn off" her BG. On the other hand, she tends to drop quickly and drastically with physical activity. I mull it over, consider the fact that there is almost no active insulin in her body, and decide to reduce her basal rate for two hours. Another notable thing is that I decide to forgo checking actual BG. We are relying on Dexcom data alone. CGM has been pretty accurate and reliable so we feel comfortable making some decisions based on it from time to time.
We leave V's kit outside in the hallway, she takes CGM into the gym with her, and I take a spin class across the hallway from the gym.
Ready for Gymnastics! Pod on one leg, CGM sensor on the other, CGM receiver in hand, she is ready to take on the world. Move over diabetes, you are not going to stop this girl from doing what she loves.
When I come out I notice that the kit was undisturbed, which means that V did not feel low/Dexcom did not alarm, so she did not need to test or treat her BG.
V comes out 30 minutes later and we check. Did I make the right decision?
We head home for dinner. On the menu is meatloaf, potatoes, quinoa and salad. Once again everything is carefully measured and counted. You are looking at a 35g. carb dinner here.
Little over 1/4 cup of potatoes = 10g.
1/3 cup of quinoa = 15g.
It is getting late but we need to change the pod. This is something we have to do every three days. While V is in the shower I start the prep.
Once the new pod is on, V takes off the old pod. This is what her skin looks like immediately after pod removal. The marks usually disappear within a day or so, sometimes sooner. However, sometimes the cannula marks linger for a while, although they typically do not hurt or itch or bother her in any way.
The skin is a little red, and the bump is where the cannula was inserted.
V finally gets to sleep. Around 10 PM my husband checks on her before he goes to bed. She's still a little high and he boluses her. I head to bed closer to 11 and do my final BG check. She sleeps through finger pokes and bolusing with the pump is non-invasive. We only need to wake her up if she is low and needs to take a fast acting sugar.
V checked her BG 8 times. The good news is that she did not have any lows. The bad news is that her BG was pretty high most of the day.
I mull over this data. V is still recovering form her cold, so the high BG is not surprising. But it would be great to get it down to a better range. I increase her temp basal overnight and set the alarm to 1:34 to get up and check on her. It only seems fitting to start 11/14/14 – World Diabetes Day – in the middle of the night with a BG check.
We get a lot of questions about V's insulin pump. How does it work, exactly? Does it do everything by itself? Does it do our dishes too?
It has a remote control, aka PDM (Personal Diabetes Manager) that acts as a meter, communicates with the pod, and is essentially the brain of the pump. The pod is attached to the body by an adhesive and delivers the insulin subcutaneously via a cannula. Check out this page that explains exactly how everything works, and make sure to click on the "Watch just how easy it is" link to see a brief video. The pod needs to be changed every 3 days, which is a huge improvement from having to give multiple daily injections. Is it virtually painless? Not according to V. She says that insertion hurts, albeit for just a few seconds. Still, one "shot" every 3 days is far better than a minimum of 4 shots every day.
I wish the pump would do everything by itself. One day it will, and it won't be a pump anymore – it will be an artificial pancreas. But for now it goes like this: V checks her blood sugar. The pump asks her if she is going to eat and if yes, how many carbs. After that, the pump uses a formula determined individually for each person by their doctor to calculate how much insulin to deliver to cover the food or to correct for high blood sugar. Aside from bolusing or correcting for high BG, the pump delivers the basal (background) insulin via a continuous drip. It is waterproof, so V does not have to worry about removing it before taking a shower, swimming in the pool or when hanging out at the beach.
The pump does not do our dishes but it does make our lives a lot easier. Besides the obvious ease of giving insulin to cover for food, there are other options that we use often. We are able to suspend insulin delivery if V is low. We are able to change the amount of basal insulin based on her needs. For example, we often decrease it for physical activity and increase it on days she is sick or sedentary (e.g. on a 5 hr cross-country flight). For meals that are high in fat and protein we are able to give some insulin upfront and then spread the rest over few hours. When V is asleep we are able to manage her insulin without having to wake her up. We don't have to keep a written log as all records are kept in the PDM. We can download the data and view the patterns that can help us better understand what is going on.
On the flip side, the pod leaves marks on V's body. There may be a mild rash from the adhesive or a little bump in the spot where cannula was inserted. One time V developed a nasty infection at the pump site – that is something that occasionally happens to just about any pump wearer. The pod had gotten ripped out a few times. It starts beeping an hour before it needs to be changed and keeps beeping on and off until it is finally changed. When something goes wrong it alarms and the sound it makes is very loud and obnoxious. We are always hyper-vigilant about losing the PDM. And because the pod is usually worn in a visible place, it makes V's Diabetes more visible too, to herself and to others.
All in all, for us the benefits far outweigh the disadvantages. V has been on the pump for 10 months now and there has never been a time we wished she were back on multiple injections.

Trump on Harley-Davidson: If it moves operations overseas, 'they will be taxed like never before!'
June 26, 2018 | Evelyn Cheng, CNBC.com
President Donald Trump threatened on Tuesday that Harley-Davidson will be "taxed like never before" if the motorcycle maker moves production overseas. He claimed that the iconic U.S. company was using increased trade tensions as an excuse to justify planned changes in manufacturing.
"A Harley-Davidson should never be built in another country-never! Their employees and customers are already very angry at them. If they move, watch, it will be the beginning of the end – they surrendered, they quit! The Aura will be gone and they will be taxed like never before!" Trump said in a tweet.
"Early this year Harley-Davidson said they would move much of their plant operations in Kansas City to Thailand," Trump said in another tweet. "That was long before Tariffs were announced. Hence, they were just using Tariffs/Trade War as an excuse."
Harley did not immediately respond to a CNBC request for comment.
Harley said Monday it was moving some production overseas due to increased costs from the EU's retaliatory tariffs against the Trump administration's duties on steel and aluminum. No production will be moving to Europe as a result of the tariffs, according to the company. Harley's overseas manufacturing plants are in Brazil, India, Australia and Thailand.
The company announced in May 2017 it would build a plant in Thailand to better reach the southeast Asian market. CEO Matt Levatich told Bloomberg News in April he made the decision after President Donald Trump withdrew the U.S. from the Trans-Pacific Partnership, a free-trade agreement with 11 other nations mostly in Asia.
Producing in Thailand lets Harley avoid the country's tariff of up to 60 percent on imported motorcycles, and helps the company get tax breaks when exporting to nearby countries, according to Reuters. The company said in January it plans to grow international business to 50 percent of annual volume by 2027.
Meanwhile, Harley is in the process of shutting down a Kansas City factory and transferring operations to York, Pennsylvania. The local union claims at least some of the work is moving to Thailand, while the motorcycle company has denied any link, according to media reports.
Shares fell about 2 percent in Tuesday morning trading after falling nearly 6 percent Monday.
Harley's stock is down more than 25 percent over the last 12 months. Last year, the company reported an annual decline in new motorcycle sales in both U.S. and international markets, down 8.5 percent and 3.9 percent, respectively.
Stifel analysts on Monday lowered their earnings estimates for this year and next by 19 cents and 45 cents per share, respectively, based on the impact from EU tariffs. They maintained a hold recommendation and a price target of $45 a share, about 8 percent above Monday's close.
Trump said in a tweet Monday he was "surprised" by Harley's decision to move some production overseas. He publicly thanked Wisconsin-based Harley-Davidson early last year for "building things in America" and criticized other companies for moving production outside the U.S.
Trade tensions between the U.S. and the rest of the world have increased in the last several months. Harley's announcement made the company one of the first to disclose a negative impact from tit-for-tat tariffs.
"Harley must know that they won't be able to sell back into U.S. without paying a big tax!" Trump said in another tweet Tuesday.

Is there any flexibility with the arrival and departure times?
If we have no prior booking we can accommodate an early arrival but check out times are set because staffing and housekeeping requirements are often difficult to change for the next booking.
Will you allow fireworks or Chinese lanterns?
Unfortunately we will not allow fireworks or Chinese lanterns. We are surrounded by livestock who would be adversely affected and our priorities lie with the wild life and nearby residents.
Will our service providers be allowed access prior to the day for set up?
We will do our utmost to allow access to the house, marquee and grounds whenever possible.
If we are having a marquee celebration will there be access to the House?
During the celebrations the house will remain locked. This is due to licencing regulations with Hudsons being the responsible party. Their staff will ensure that overnight guests only can gain access.
Pets are allowed on the ground floor of the house only, and will not be allowed in the kitchen and the preparation areas on the day of the wedding.
Can we decorate the gardens for example additional lighting?
We can help you with your lighting choices with prior consultation.
We have designated smoking areas to the rear of the house and outside the marquee.
Can you recommend anywhere close by for additional accommodation?
There are several hotels very close but two are within 2 miles from our venue, Lairhillock Lodge and the Premier Inn at Bourtreebush.
Do you allow confetti to be thrown at your venue?
We will allow confetti in moderation.
We can provide an easel for the table plan.
Can you recommend any local suppliers (photographers, florists etc)?
We can supply contacts for most requirements.
Can my photographer have access to the house and grounds prior to the wedding day?
We will accommodate additional access whenever possible.
Will red wine be allowed in the house?
It is fine for red wine to be consumed in the house or any other coloured drinks.
We have the Alexandra suite for the bride and groom.
Where does the bride get ready?
We have a bridal dressing room with full length mirrors complete with a double hair and make-up station, perfect for preparation.
Can we bring our own cots and bedding?
Yes, the majority of our rooms are large enough to accommodate additional cots. It would be helpful to have prior notice so that we can help with the planning. Unfortunately we do not stock bedding for cots but can look into ordering on clients behalf.
For smaller groups the gravel drive and surrounds are sufficient for parking up to 10 cars. For events there is parking for up to 50 cars within a few yards of the venue and anything more than that we have hardstanding 200 yards from the house at the farm.
The ground floor is disabled friendly and we have disabled toilet facilities for any receptions. Due to the age of the house the bedrooms and bathrooms upstairs have a number of steps between them so they are not suitable. The Lairhillock Inn 2 miles away offers bedrooms with disabled access.
