Cocktail Attire

Please plan on arriving at the ceremony site around 3:30, as the ceremony will begin at 4:00. Our venue is about 1 hour and 45 minutes from the city of Minneapolis. The ceremony is scheduled to begin at 4:00 PM. Suggested guest arrival is 3:30 to allow you time to park, grab a refreshment, and find a seat before the ceremony begins! The outdoor ceremony and reception are in the same location. There will be a golf cart escort for guests who need extra assistance getting from the entrance to the ceremony. Parking: The parking lot has 75 spaces, with an additional 15 parking spaces on the side of the road near the venue. We will have a cocktail hour in between the ceremony and the reception where you can enjoy appetizers and refreshments before dinner begins. Guests will be seated at 5:45. Dinner will start promptly by 6:00 PM. We have access to the venue until midnight, so get your dancing shoes ready! Check out the "photos" for a wedding timeline.
