Thank you so much for the beautiful oak serving board! We can’t wait to use it during the many dinner parties you’ll be invited to this winter. Looking forward to celebrating with you at our wedding!

For a kitchen gift you received before your wedding

How did you know we were dreaming of those crystal champagne flutes?! They’re by far the most beautiful glasses in our home and we’ve never felt fancier. You’ll have to come over soon so we can toast to you! So excited to see you in June.

For drinkware you received before your wedding

We had a blast dancing the night away with you at our wedding. We also can’t thank you enough for the espresso maker. Our mornings have never been brighter! We can’t wait to see you in Austin next month… all caffeinated up!

For a coffee gift you received after your wedding

Where have you been hiding those killer dance moves? Thank you so much for rocking out at our wedding. And we absolutely love our new cast iron skillet and cookbook! We’re already cooking up a storm. Hope to see you soon in New York!

For cookware you received after your wedding

Thank you so much for the beer-brewing kit! We hope to be sipping backyard IPAs with you in no time. We missed you at the wedding, but know you were there in spirit. Can’t wait to see you when we’re back from our honeymoon!

Rachel & Kyle

We fell in love in the North Loop neighborhood of downtown Minneapolis and both have special connections to the University of Minnesota. See below for some of our favorite Minnesotan "can't miss" spots in these two neighborhoods and beyond!

Things To Do

Where we went on the night we first met, one of our favorite breweries in the Twin Cities, and a great indoor/outdoor location for the Fall! Make sure to try the Coffee Bender.

Surly Brewing Co.

Rachel had to be dragged away from Brit's Pub on Derby Day so that Jon + Amy could hang out with Kyle in Uptown. She's happy she went! Enjoy the rooftop and pub for lawn bowling and an Ale.

Brit's Pub

One of the most picturesque locations in the Twin Cities. We enjoyed many walks across the bridge connecting Kyle's University apartment and Rachel's North Loop apartment.

Minneapolis Stone Arch Bridge

Where we went on our first official date: May 20, 2017 - the night before Rachel's birthday. The Parlour burger is to die for.

Parlour

Take a walk around campus and see Northrup Mall, academic buildings, the athletic facilities where Kyle works, and all of Rachel's favorite spots from her college days.

University of Minnesota

Great pizza spot by the hotels and reception venue. Open late night as well!

Black Sheep Coal Fired Pizza

Eatery right next to Lake Harriet. Grab an Arnold Palmer and enjoy a stroll around the lake. This spot is just seven blocks north of Rachel and Kyle's home.

Bread & Pickle + Lake Harriet

See the gorgeous Minnehaha Falls and then stop for some casual dining at Sea Salt - our favorite seafood in the Twin Cities. Both are located in Minnehaha Park. A must visit combo!

Minnehaha Regional Park

One of our favorite cider spots in Minneapolis. Within walking distance of Rachel's old apartment in the North Loop, the Twins Stadium, and the Timberwolves arena.

Number 12 Cider

Classic burger and malt spot on Minnesota's campus in Dinkytown. Pro Tip: order off the kid's menu and your burger will come with fries!

Annie's Parlour

Worth the 25 minute drive! Restaurant on the shores of Lake Minnetonka and where Kyle has played in a sand volleyball league since moving to Minnesota in 2016.

Lord Fletcher's Old Lake Lodge

I mean... why not? If you've never been it's certainly a sight to behold.

Mall of America®

If you're up for some horse racing or a casino, this is our favorite spot to go! Even if you aren't a big spender, the $2 bets are just as fun.

Canterbury Park

See the symbol that is always used to represent Minneapolis - the famous Spoonbridge and Cherry.
