Cocktail attire.... Remember the conservatory is like a greenhouse, it may get warm!
The ceremony will take place in the Marjorie McNeely Conservatory's Sunken Garden. The best place to park will be the Palm lot. The zoo/conservatory closes to the public at 6pm, so there should be plenty of parking available. Due to the layout of the garden, we are limited to ten chairs so our younger guests should be prepared to stand for the ceremony.
8:00 pm - 11:00 pm
Cocktail attire.... Nice, but not too fancy!
Complimentary valet will be available at the main hotel entrance. Should you choose to park in one of the nearby ramps, we recommend the Lawson Ramp on 5th St E. The Saint Paul Grill will validate parking in this ramp for up to 2 hours. Appetizers will be served upon arrival. We will have our own custom menu for the evening. We do not need to decide how many of each entree we need ahead of time; we will all order from our menu the evening of the reception. There will be a choice of 3 different starters and 3 different entrees (as well as a kid's option). There will also be 3 different side dishes to share, and of course, cake! As our group will be rather small, we will be having an open bar for the evening.
