It depends on which invitation you received - we’re celebrating in two parts! We feel so lucky to have so many incredible people in our lives who love and support us, and we’re truly grateful. Because of that, we’ve decided to celebrate in two parts so we can make the most of this special day with all of you! We’re hosting a smaller ceremony and dinner earlier in the day, followed by a big After Party where even more of our favorite people will join us for the fun. – If your invitation is for the ceremony and dinner: The ceremony will begin promptly at 4:00 PM, so we kindly ask that you arrive before 3:45 PM to get settled before we kick things off. If you arrive late, unfortunately, you won’t be able to be seated until after the ceremony. Thanks for being on time—we can’t wait to see you there! – If your invitation is for the After Party: Please plan to arrive no earlier than 7:15 PM. We’ll still be wrapping up dinner before then, and we want to make sure everything’s set and ready for a fun night with you! Come ready to dance and mingle! Be sure to check your invite to see which part of the celebration you’re joining. Your RSVP form on the website should also indicate this - and if you’re unsure, just reach out! We’re happy to help make sure everyone is in the right place at the right time. We can’t wait to celebrate with you!
We’re going for semi-formal attire - think dresses, jumpsuits, or suits. We kindly ask that you skip the jeans and anything close to white. Since it’s a summer wedding, feel free to pull out that colorful floral dress that’s been waiting for its moment! Most importantly, wear whatever makes you feel confident and ready to hit the dance floor - we want you to be comfy enough to celebrate all night with us!
The sooner, the better! We kindly ask that you RSVP by July 16th so we can finalize all the details. Thank you!
We’re so excited to celebrate with the people who mean the most to us! Due to space limitations, we’re only able to accommodate those listed on the invitation envelope. If you received a plus one, their name will be included there and on the RSVP page. Thank you for understanding - we truly can’t wait to celebrate together!
We’ve reserved a hotel block at the Holiday Inn in Alexandria, and a shuttle will be available to and from the venue for your convenience.

Yes! You can find all the details on the Registry tab. It’s hosted through The Knot but includes our wish lists from Amazon, Target, and others - super easy to browse!
Yes! When you arrive at the venue, parking will be directly on your right in a clearly marked area. There will be signs to help guide you!
We love your little ones! That said, due to space limitations, we’re only able to include children whose names are listed on the invitation. If your invite doesn’t mention them, we hope you’ll use this as a chance for a fun night out! Book that sitter and treat yourself to a date night!
We kindly ask that guests do not bring their own alcohol. The venue has strict policies in place, and we want to respect their rules—as well as make sure the night runs smoothly for everyone. There will be a cash bar available all night, so you’ll have plenty of drink options to choose from! We appreciate your understanding and support as we celebrate this special day together. Cheers!
Absolutely! Please know that we’re so grateful for any gift we receive. If you saw something that made you think of us or found a must-have item you love and want us to have in our home too, we genuinely appreciate it! Our registry is just a rough guide to help with ideas - not a strict wish list. That said, if you’re purchasing something similar to a registry item (like a different kind of whisk or towels you personally swear by), feel free to go for it! Just kindly mark the similar item on the registry as “purchased” to help us avoid duplicates - we might not need ten whisks, no matter how much we love pancakes. ;) We trust your judgment completely and truly appreciate any thoughtful gift you choose to give. Thank you for thinking of us - we feel so lucky to be surrounded by such generous and caring people.
The wedding will be held outdoors, surrounded by all the summer beauty Minnesota has to offer! Since it’s mid-August, there’s a good chance it’ll be warm - so please dress accordingly and feel free to bring sunglasses, a fan, or anything else to stay comfy!
