Car: Please be advised that Fifth Ave is going downtown, so you will need to go around Central Park. As Parking is always an issue in New York City, you might want to consider parking at the venue for the reception and go by cab. See also below for group transportation.

Taxi: New York's world famous yellow cabs are riding all over Manhattan and is a convenient, fast and affordable mean of transport if you want to avoid the subway. Simply flag one down on the street or have your hotel flag one down for you!

Group transportation:
There will be group transportation available from Le Parker Meridien hotel to the venue of the wedding ceremony at the Conservatory Garden - and again after the ceremony to the venue of the wedding reception at Le Parker Meridien hotel.

Please note that the van only holds 32 people, and thus needs to do several trips back and forth.
