FAQs

The Wedding Website of A.J. Ikene and Libby Kaufman
Question

Is there a dress code?

Answer

Our dress code is formal with a garden-inspired feel. We encourage you to dress your best — think suits or tuxes, and polished midi or long dresses suited for a romantic summer celebration. Florals, pastels, vibrant colors, and lighter, breathable fabrics are encouraged.

Question

Where is the ceremony and reception taking place?

Answer

Both our ceremony and reception will be held at Edward Anne Estate at Bavaria Downs in Chaska, Minnesota. The entire celebration will take place on-site, so once you arrive, you can relax and enjoy the day with us without needing to travel between locations.

Question

Is there transportation to and from the hotels to the ceremony?

Answer

We’re planning to provide shuttle transportation to and from the venue between our hotel, The Westin in Edina, and Edward Anne Estate. Final shuttle details and schedules will be shared closer to the wedding date.

Question

Will the ceremony be indoors or outdoors?

Answer

Our ceremony will be held outdoors, so please be prepared for a warm Minnesota summer day. We recommend bringing sunglasses and keeping the heat in mind while you enjoy the ceremony.

Are you registered? Where?

Answer

We are registered at Crate & Barrel and Amazon! Please see the "Registry" tab on our website.

Question

What time should I arrive at the ceremony?

Answer

Yes! Complimentary on-site parking is available at the venue. Guests are welcome to leave their cars overnight, if needed. Please plan to pick them up the next morning before 11:00 AM. Shuttles will go back and forth between the wedding venue and the Westin in Edina throughout the night as well.
