Of course! We would love to have the whole family here to celebrate our special day.
Dinner will be a plated dinner, when you RSVP you will be given those options. At dinner you will be given a name card with an indicator to tell the servers what meal you RSVP'd for.
We are so excited to celebrate our special day with you! Due to limited space at our ceremony venue, we have made the difficult decision to keep it a small gathering. However, we would love for you to join us for the dance, where we can celebrate together!
On Saturday morning, Mankato will be hosting the Mankato Marathon. Here is the link to the website and information on road closures the morning of the wedding. https://content.govdelivery.com/accounts/MNMANKATO/bulletins/3f71ab3 There is a free event parking located NE side of the area, between Riverfront Dr. and E Walnut. There are also other parking ramps throughout the area, but they do cost money or have a time limit. If you look at our gallery, you will see a visual of all the parking in the area.
We kindly ask that our ceremony be unplugged. This means we ask you to refrain from taking photos during the wedding. We have a wonderful photography team there to take pictures. We will also record our ceremony for those who can't attend. There will also be a time after the ceremony when we can take pictures together.
While the Hilton Garden Hotel is connected to the venue, there are limited hotels in downtown Mankato. However, there is access to Lyft and Uber all around the city.
We will be having a cash bar at our reception. They will take cards however, they will not make tabs.
Our last dance will be at 11:30 PM, and last call for drinks will be around the same time.
Yes, there is a concert in the arena next to our venue. We will have security to make sure concert goers and wedding attendees go to the correct entrances.
