We ask that all guests arrive at least 15 minutes before the ceremony which will begin promptly at 4:00 p.m. This will allow time for parking and seating.
Yes, there will be marked parking spots near the barn and behind the rental house. However, we would like to keep the number of vehicles to a minimum. If you are staying at the hotel, feel free to schedule an Uber to drop you off and pick you up at the end of the night. If you are part of a large family, please consider ride sharing to the event. Please don't drink and drive. You can leave your vehicle parked onsite overnight as long as they are picked up the next day.
We'd love to see our family and friends dress up for our big day! We are requesting cocktail attire or semi-formal for our wedding. Being a fall wedding, autumn colors are encouraged and we ask that ladies avoid white or cream. Ladies, please note that the ceremony and reception will take place in the grass so some heels will sink into the turf. The wedding colors are Rust & Navy Blue.
We wanted to let you know that your presence is the only gift we truly need. We understand that many of you may still want to give us a gift to commemorate the occasion, but please know that this is completely optional. For those that feel like a gift is necessary, feel free to contribute a monetary gift that will go towards our Honey Moon Fund and starting our life together. Otherwise, we do have a few items on our Target registry to help us build our future home.
We have tried our best to accommodate our guests, but unfortunately space is limited. If a plus one has been allotted to you, your invitation will reflect that. Otherwise, we would love to keep the wedding as intimate as possible with close friends and family. Thank you for understanding!
Invitations will be specific and will include the names of children who are invited. We realize that this may impact your plans, and we want to make sure you have plenty of time to arrange for childcare. We encourage you to use this evening as a date night!
Yes, both the ceremony and reception will take place outdoors. Please dress accordingly and make sure to check the weather conditions leading up to the event. Additionally, please keep in mind that the venue primarily is grass and gravel terrain.
Yes! Drinks are on us! Please drink responsibly and carpool/Uber if needed! The bar will have beer, seltzers and wine.
We would love for all our family and friends to be fully present in the moment with us, so we are having an "unplugged' ceremony. We ask that our guest silence/turn off their phones and refrain from taking photos and videos during the ceremony. We have invested into 2 professional photographers plus a videographer who will take care of coverage. However, you are more than welcome to take photos and videos during the reception!
You will be dearly missed! If you cannot attend our wedding, please indicate so on your RSVP as soon as possible so we can plan accordingly. If you have already RSVP'd "Attending", but find that you can no longer make it, please notify Emma at 507-380-5486 as soon as you are aware.
Please feel free to contact Emma at 507-380-5486 for any additional questions you may have.
