FAQs

Question

Are kids welcome?

Answer

We love your kiddos, but unfortunately cannot accommodate everyone's children due to current capacity limits. Please note our nieces and nephews are the exceptions.

Question

Is there parking for the ceremony and reception?

Answer

There is plenty of free parking available near Nazareth Chapel on the University of Northwestern campus. For the reception: If you plan to stay at a nearby hotel, it might be best to park there and walk or ride share to the Grain Exchange. A $6 parking rate is guaranteed at Gateway Ramp located at 400 South Third Street. Parking vouchers will be available in the lobby of the Grain Exchange building. There’s also plentiful street and ramp parking in the area.

Question

Do you have any hotel recommendations?

Answer

We have set up a room block at the Radisson Red Minneapolis for guests. Please visit our accommodations page for details.

Question

Is there a dress code?

Answer

Cocktail Attire is requested. Wear cocktail dresses, LBDs, dressy jumpsuits, and jackets and slacks. Please no jeans or khakis.

Question

Can I bring a date?

Answer

You're welcome to bring a date if it was indicated on your invitation and RSVP. Unfortunately, due to current COVID circumstances, venue capacity and both having large families, we had to significantly limit our guest list.

Question

Is it safe to be in downtown Minneapolis?

Answer

Yes - the area of downtown our reception and hotel block are located in is safe. (In fact, Sarah's office is just down the block!) We understand that if you're not commonly downtown you may be uncomfortable, though. As with being in any city, make sure to lock your vehicle, be alert and avoid walking alone. If you feel unsafe walking around downtown, UBER or other rideshare services are a great way to get around.

Question

Will the Chauvin trial impact our safety being downtown?

Answer

Our reception venue is in close proximity to the government center, so we are monitoring the Chauvin trial closely. We have high hopes it will be wrapped but before our wedding day and will not impact our safety being downtown. We will use this website and email to update you if anything changes.

Question

Are you registered? Where?

Answer

If you feel so generous as to get us a gift, we are registered at Crate & Barrel and Amazon. Please visit our registry page for details.
