FAQs

Question

What type of wedding ceremony will you be having?

Answer

We will be having a modified, abbreviated version of the Lutheran service which can be found in the WELS Lutheran hymnal.

Question

Will there be designated seating for the ceremony?

Answer

Nope! Choose a seat, not a side- you are loved by both the groom and bride! :)

Question

Will there be designated seating at the reception venue?

Answer

Although we will be having a buffet style dinner, there will be assigned seating by table. In order to try and keep families together, we ask that you please find the table with your name and choose a seat! :)

Question

What are my options for parking at the reception?

Answer

Due to its downtown location, parking meters for Festival Hall run until 6PM on the weekend. There is also a garage right across from the Hall which costs $2 for the entire day!

Question

I am bringing my awesome young kids!!! Will there be anything to keep them occupied and content during the reception?

Answer

Yes! Because there will be several children at the wedding, we are converting a side room of the reception hall into a children's area. There will be games, art supplies, and toys available for use. We are also hoping to hook up a projector to play some Disney movies! While we would ask that you please do not leave your young children unattended, we wouldn't mind if you had them being watched by responsible older siblings. As an alternative to the play room, there is a splash pad located right outside of Festival Hall. It is up to you whether you want to deal with swimsuits and water, but this may be a good option if you would like to help your kids run out some energy! :)

Question

What is the dinner menu?

Answer

Our lovely caterers will be hosting a buffet style meal with the following menu: Entree #1: Boneless Chicken Breast with a Creamy Artichoke Florentine Sauce (GF) Entree #2: Chef Carved Boneless Roasted Pork Loin Side #1: Parmesan Orzo Side #2: Buttered Corn Nibblets! (GF) Rolls Side Salad (your choice of Ranch, Italian, or French Dressing)

Question

Will alcohol be provided?

Answer

Alcohol will not be readily provided; however there will be unlimited soda and a cash bar.

Question

Am I allowed to bring outside food or drink to the reception?

Answer

As much as we wish we could say yes, all food within the reception must be provided by a certified vendor. Don't worry- we'll take good care of you!

Question

What time is the reception scheduled to end?

Answer

We will be able to party until midnight!!! Woot woot!!!

Question

When I typed in my name to RSVP, I did not have an option for a +1. May I bring someone who is not listed under my name?

Answer

We respectfully ask that you refrain from bringing anyone that has not been listed on our guest list in connection with your name.

Question

Will there be a shuttle from the hotel to the church and/or reception venue?

Answer

While there will not be any kind of shuttle between hotels, the church, or the reception venue, the reception venue and church are only 0.5 miles away, or about a 12 minute walk!

Question

Is there anyone I could talk to if I have any further questions?

Answer

For further questions, please contact the bride or groom!
