Question

What should I wear to the wedding?

Answer

Not white, lol. Dress nice enough to feel good but not so fancy that you are suffering.

Question

Is there a registry for gifts?

Answer

Nope... just a honeymoon fund. Other than that, we just want to share our joy with you.

Question

Where is the honeymoon going to be?

Answer

We will be going on a road trip, but we haven't decided where just yet. Favorites are San Antonio, Yosemite, and Edisto Island SC.

Question

What hotel is everyone staying at?

Answer

We listed three local hotels. All are rather small, so there's not enough space for everyone in one place. The only local hotel I would steer you away from is the Scenic View Inn, which ironically, has no view of the beach and is overpriced. There are also many Air BNBs in the local area, or you can stay in Kewaunee 15 minutes south, or in Sturgeon Bay 20 minutes north. We are about 30 minutes due east of the east side of Green Bay, but it can take a full 30 minutes to naviagate through downtown Green Bay, so if you book there, be aware of commute times.

Question

Should we bring anything?

Answer

If you'd like to enjoy the beach, chairs are recommended. It's a small town with lots of quaint shops, so bring walking shoes. If you will be hiking, keep walking over tree roots in mind and maybe bring a walking stick and water bottle.

Question

I don't see menu options... what will the food choices be?

Answer

We are looking into having a food truck at the event, but have not pinned that down just yet. We will make sure there are options.

Question

How did he propose?

Answer

On December 8th, 2024, at 1 am, Verity awoke to thick smoke. At first she thought the flu on the wood burning furnace had slipped closed. Bleary-eyed, George went downstairs to fix it, but came face to face with a glowing orange wall. The chimney inside the wall was burning. It was -18 degrees outside. While they huddled in bathrobes in the car with Verity's mom and their pets, he muttered... Verity, I bought a ring. I was going to propose. She smiled ear to ear. After a long pause, George continued... it's in the house. Moments later, the roof collapsed while flames engulfed what was left. A few weeks later, Verity had been notified that the remains of her home would be scraped clear into dumpsters in the morning. She couldn't bear the thought of it all being gone without even looking to see if anything could be salvaged. When she arrived, the devastation was worse than she could imagine. Two walls stood, roofless, like charred bookends keeping the ashes mounded in its frozen heap. Four foot deep ash, twisted metal, and burned through beams stared back at her. Verity had decided the most likely place he would've hidden it would be in his sock drawer. Though the dresser was long gone, it didn't take long for her to spot the remnants of a melted packer jersey and the metal handle of his dresser. Her pick ax swung with caution into the frozen char until she came to a mass of melted black socks. Pulling them apart one by one, she dug more urgently. Frozen in the center was a crushed, melted metal box. It was covered in soot and so melted that she had to crack it open like a walnut, sure that whatever was inside would be ruins. There, in perfect untouched condition was a beautiful ring. Just like Verity, her phoenix ring had risen from the ashes. That night, George got down on one knee and proposed in the driveway of the Packer house in Townsend, while the wind chimes from Linda's service sang in the winter breeze.
