We are not... they don't serve alcohol. We will however be blocks from Camp Randall stadium and have big screen TVs showing the game. For those of you interested in attending the game, kick off is at 8 PM and you can find tickets here: http://uwbadgers.com/
5 PM. Kick-off is at 8 PM so for those of you heading to the game, you'll have plenty of time to pre-game with the wedding party.
Yes, its about a 25 minute drive. We suggest taking the shuttle from the wedding hotels.
Yes. There is a parking lot behind the venue. Most guests will likely be taking the bus from the hotel.
Semiformal, please. But we want you to feel comfortable, so if those shoes are too high or that top button is too tight, let it all hang loose.
So here's the thing. We love your kids—we really do. But we want our wedding to be your night off! Kids are welcome throughout the weekend, but the ceremony and reception are an adults-only event. Likewise, most of the events will involve tasty adult beverages, so we can't promise a lot of kid-friendly activities. With that said, we've compiled a list of trusted babysitters in the Madison area with availability during the wedding weekend. We can also help you coordinate with other families to make pickup/dropoff easier and bring down the price. Just email us at randj@theschwayberrys.com. See the next post for a list of babysitters, availability, and rates in the Madison area.

Yup. We've got a full weekend planned. Friday night Badger tailgate, Saturday evening Welcome Party and Sunday a ceremony/reception. Please see events page for details.
Due to the popularity of Badger weekend, Madison-area hotel space is limited (and can be expensive). Our official wedding hotel is The Edgewater and we recommend that you book ASAP (seriously). We have a secondary room block at the AC Hotel which is walking distance from The Edgewater. With that said, if you want to try your hand booking over a big game day weekend, the following hotels are also pretty cool and near downtown: The Graduate, Concourse Hotel, Best Western Inn on the Square.
If your invitation says “and Guest,” then yes.
NOW! Limited block space and Madison gets crazy over game day weekends.
The tailgate is about a 25 min walk from The Edgewater. The Edgewater also has gameday shuttles that run every 20 min and drop off a few blocks from the Tailgate location.
