Why are you making us come to such a remote place for the wedding?

Yikes! How far away is civilization?

The nearest "big" town is Chiefland, about a 40-minute drive away. There you can find such staples as CVS, Dunkin', McDonald's, Walmart, and Winn-Dixie.

The nearest city is Gainesville, about an hour's drive away. Gainesville is home to the very large University of Florida (55,000 students), and is quite cosmopolitan, with plenty of dining, entertainment, and shopping options.

(In an "emergency," there is a Dollar General about 10 minutes out of Cedar Key on the left, just after the second Marathon gas station, which has basic groceries and snacks.)

Hopefully this website will provide all the answers but, if not, then contact Dace or Simon (note that during wedding week, Dace will be tied up in beautification, but feel free to pull Simon away from tanning by the pool). And if you see any "holes" in our website, then please let us know.
