Sanaa and Jay's Wedding

You are cordially invited to Sanaa and Jay’s wedding!

We will be celebrating in two locations:

On Saturday, July 4, 2026, with a reception in Ulaanbaatar, Mongolia. 

On Saturday, August 15, 2026, with a ceremony and dinner in Orleans, Massachusetts. 

We understand that traveling to these locations may require considerable time and expense.  While we would love your company at either (or both) events, we hope that you will not feel compelled to join us at either location; we would be happy to see you at a later time and place. 

Significant others, parents, children, and other family members are welcome. 

Please R.S.V.P. at your earliest convenience via the link at the bottom of this page. 

Additional details will be posted to this site as the dates approach. 

Details:

Reception in Ulaanbaatar, Mongolia:

Date: July 4, 2026

Time: TBD (afternoon)

Venue: TBD

Weather: Summer in Ulaanbaatar (aka UB) is generally quite pleasant, with highs in the 60s and 70s.  Evenings can get chillier, especially in the countryside.  Rain showers are not infrequent.  We usually bring multiple layers, including a light-to-midweight jacket.  

Transportation: From the US, you can head east or west to get to Mongolia.  Just don't go south.  Most flights transfer through Istanbul, Frankfurt, Beijing, Tokyo, or Seoul.  The main airport in UB is the Chinggis Khaan International Airport.  It's a short drive from the city; we can help coordinate airport pickups.  It's not necessary to rent a car in Ulaanbaatar. 

Lodging: We will reserve rooms at the Edelweiss Art Hotel in Ulaanbaatar.  Please let us know on the R.S.V.P form if you would like us to reserve a room for you. 

Additional: Anybody traveling to Mongolia is also invited to join us for a short multi-day trip to the countryside, likely to the Gobi and/or Karakorum (offered at cost by New Juulchin Tours).  A potential (adjustable!) schedule might look like: 

July 2: Arrive in UB

July 3: Rest/see UB

July 4: Reception

July 5: Day trip to Terelj (national park near UB)

July 6-9: Trip to Gobi or Karakorum

July 10: UB city tour/museum

July 11-12: See Naadam festivities in UB (wresting, archery, etc.)

July 13: Departure 

Ceremony and dinner in Orleans, Massachusetts:

Date: August 15, 2026

Time: TBD (afternoon)

Venue: Church of the Holy Spirit, 204 Monument Road, Orleans, MA 02653

Weather: The Cape can get quite hot and humid at times during the summer.  The church  and reception hall (just next door) are air-conditioned.  

Transportation: Orleans is only about an hour and a half from Boston without traffic, and if we had ham, we could have ham and eggs, if we had eggs.  Two and a half hours or so is more likely during the summer months.  It is possible to take a bus to Hyannis, and then another bus, and sometimes even another one for good measure.  But it's probably easier to carpool; let us know if you'd like help pooling. 

Lodging: There are several hotels in Orleans, Eastham, and Wellfleet.  Some relatively well-reviewed options include: 

The Rugosa Boutique Hotel (Eastham)

Eagle Wing Inn (Eastham, adults only)

Skaket Beach Motel (Orleans)

The Cove Motel (Orleans)

Southfleet Motor Inn (Wellfleet)

There are also several other motels, as well as B&Bs and inns.  Please note that some hotels require a two- or three- night minimum stay during summer weekends. Currently the following options do have one-night stays available (but note that the lower three have mixed reviews): 

Orleans Waterfront Inn (Orleans)

Rodeway Inn (Orleans)

Blue Dolphin Inn (Orleans)

Viking Shores Motor Inn (Orleans)

Please do let us know if you have any trouble finding a place to stay and we will see what we can do to help out.  Cape hotels may fill up so we recommend making a reservation as early as possible. 

Additional: We will also meet for a drop-in brunch on Sunday, August 16, for anybody still in town, in North Eastham, MA.  Details to follow.
