Online Dating & Foster Failing

Maegan and Dietrich lived an hour and a half away from each other when they first met. Maegan almost didn't match with Dietrich because of the distance, but after a couple of days decided why not - it would probably be one or two dates at most, right? Flash forward a couple of years and several thousand miles of driving, and now we have a house, four official cats plus a fifth who likes the extra opportunities for attention, and look forward to many, many more years together.

Wedding Party

Since we are are aiming for a small and simple ceremony, we decided not to have "official" groomsmen and bridesmaids stand with us. However, Maegan's close friend, Jen, and Dietrich's brother, Derek, will be doing readings during the ceremony. We will also be having two "flower girls" - Maegan's niece Emma, and Dietrich's "unofficial" niece, Azzy.

Travel

Because the beginning of October is the end of the area's peak season, some of the hotels closest to the venue have a two night stay minimum at this time. We have included some of those below for those who might want to explore the area, and also some in nearby Baxter/Brainerd that accept single night stays. We do not have a block of rooms - given the relatively small number of potential guests, we found that the prices offered were the same as, if not slightly higher than, booking separately online.

Hotel

Two night minimum - Grand View Lodge Spa and Golf Resort

23521 Nokomis Avenue, Nisswa, MN 56468
 

This is a seven minute drive from the location of the ceremony, and has a lot of enjoyable features. We especially enjoy the spa! They are currently only accepting two night reservations, however.

FAQs

Please feel free to message Maegan or Dietrich with any questions/clarifications.
Question

When should I RSVP by?

Answer

Please RSVP by 8/25/25.

Question

Are kids welcome?

Answer

While some children will be present (like our flower girls, newborns, etc.), because of the strict limitation on the maximum number of guests allowed at the venue, we unfortunately are not able to accommodate everyone's children. We absolutely understand if this means that parents may not be able to attend, and hope that if that's the case, we can celebrate with your whole family at a later time. If your save the date was addressed to "The X Family," this means that your child/children are included in our total guest count. If the save the date was addressed to you/you and your partner, this means that unfortunately at this time we are not able to accommodate your children as well; we will certainly reach out should that change.

Question

Is there parking for the ceremony or reception?

Answer

Yes!

Question

Is there a dress code?

Answer

Nope! Please feel free to dress comfortably. Or uncomfortably if that's your thing.
