FAQs

Question

When and where is the wedding?

Answer

Saturday, July 11th 2026 at our private property in Willow, Alaska on the Kashwitna River

Question

What time does the ceremony start?

Answer

The ceremony will begin at 4:00 PM. Please arrive by 3:30 PM to park, find your seat, and settle in.

Question

What should I wear?

Answer

Dress code is summery, floral, and semi-formal. Think garden party vibes—dresses, suits, or separates in light fabrics and bright colors. The ceremony will be outdoors, so comfortable shoes and a light jacket for the evening are recommended. The ceremony is outdoors, but the reception is in a tent.

Question

How long does it take to get to Willow from Anchorage?

Answer

It takes a little under 2 hours to get from Anchorage to Willow. Since the ceremony starts at 4pm, I would leave no later than 2pm to insure enough time to find parking and be at the ceremony by 4pm.

Question

Are there hotels or housing in Willow?

Answer

Willow has very limited lodging options. If you want to make a weekend of it, we suggest renting an RV and staying at Susitna Landing RV park (0.4 miles from the wedding venue). If this is not your style, please reach out to Michaela at 907-362-7683, to see if there is a cabin available at Sheep Creek Lodge, or if you want to hop on the party bus. Talkeetna is 25 minutes North and Wasilla is 40 minutes South and have more lodging options.

Question

Will dinner be served?

Answer

Yes! We are catering barbecue with lots of good options! There will be light snacks available during cocktail hour. Bring your appetite!

Question

Can I bring a guest?

Answer

Yes! When you RSVP, please state if you are bringing a guest or not.

Question

Are kids invited?

Answer

Unless formally invited on the invitation, no kids are invited.

Question

Will there be cell service or Wifi?

Answer

If you have AT&T and GCI, you will have cell service. I cannot confirm through any other cell phone service.

Question

Is it an open bar?

Answer

Yes!

Question

Will there be a band or DJ?

Answer

A live band will be playing most of the night. Bring your dancing shoes!

Question

What is the parking situation?

Answer

There is limited parking, as this is on our private property. But, we have some nice neighbors that are allowing our guests to park on their property. There will be few spaces for parking (20-30 vehicles), so please consider carpooling or parking at Susitna Landing RV park and walking over (5 minute walk to ceremony).
