Not us! See our Wedding Party tab.

Question

I live in California and do not know what to wear.

Answer

Minnesota is endowed with four very distinct and beautiful seasons.  October mornings may be a little cooler than you are used to in California but it's not time to bring out the fur hats and mukluks just yet.  Whatever you wear to brace for a frigid December morning in California should be fine.

Question

Is there any good beer in Minnesota?

Answer

May we suggest that upon arriving in Minnesota, that you mosey up to the nearest bar and order yourself a Summit (a Wahl family favorite) to get yourself properly initiated.  Then as you gain confidence in your surroundings, take advantage of the EXPLODING craft beer scene that the Twin Cities has to offer.

Question

Should I visit the Mall of America?

Answer

The MoA is huge with an aquarium, Nickelodeon theme park, and hundreds of stores. Wear your best walking shoes.

Question

I heard Minnesota has lakes...

Answer

You betcha!  14,380 lakes to be exact. Lake Nokomis is Nick and Mikala's favorite picnic spot. Lake Minnetonka is fun and ritzy. For those who want to see what all other lakes aspire to be, consider a two hour drive up north to Duluth and Lake Superior.

Question

Packers or Vikings?

Answer

Purple and yellow or green and gold does not matter to us. However, if you choose to wear a cheese hat in Vikings territory, Nick and Mikala are not liable for any physical or emotional damage caused by the Minnesotans.
