The permit costs $5 per vehicle and can be found at the main office. Please purchase one prior to joining us at the Modern Group Center.
You will need to bring a pillow & sheets/sleeping bag/blankets for your bed.
We will be serving the following group meals: Friday evening- casual fiesta Saturday evening- reception dinner Saturday night- midnight snack Sunday morning- bloody marys & breakfast for all who slept over If you want to bring your own snacks, drinks or a cooler of your own, feel free. We ask that you refrain from bringing plastic water bottles, the park has great tap water and we will provide cups.
We have decided that for everyone to have their best time, kids are not invited.
Our Saturday night reception dinner will be served buffet style and your plate can easily be made to accommodate any of these diets.
We wish! However, the park does not allow them.
This is a casual outdoor wedding, please dress comfortably. No need to be super fancy here.
Pack as if you are going glamping. Bringing camp chairs, a hammock, a cooler, yard games, etc. is encouraged!
If you are coming from out of state, we are so thrilled! We understand that you are making a big journey to be with us, but that you also may want to explore MN a little...and we hope you do! As far as lodging, we have the Modern Group Center booked starting on Thursday the 13th until Sunday the 16th. You are more than welcome to stay in one cabins throughout those times. The state park is really beautiful & there's a lot to explore, but we encourage you to also check out Up North MN if you can & the Twin Cities for sure. Ashley's parents live 20 minutes South of Minneapolis/St.Paul and welcome people to stay with them AFTER the wedding. They have plenty of rooms and parking. We also have many mutual friends who live in Minneapolis who we would love to coordinate a short stay with for you. There is also Luke's lake cabin in Fairhaven, MN (hour North of the cities). An AirBnB or VRBO rental is also recommended. Please reach out to Luke or Ash about any of these lodging options.
The Twin Cities (Minneapolis/St. Paul) has so much going on all the time! We recommend checking out the lineup at First Avenue, an iconic music venue owned by Prince. The Minnesota Renaissance Festival runs until September 30th. Get out on one of our 10,000 lakes which can literally be found anywhere. The list is endless!
