You should RSVP no later than Friday, May 1st.

Go to the Dow Gardens Visitor Center and let the front desk staff know you are attending the Fanning-Pothoff wedding. You will get free access to the gardens. You are also welcome to explore the gardens before the ceremony and/or between the ceremony and reception!

We suggest semi-formal attire. We are going for a garden party vibe, so feel free to wear fun colors. The ceremony is outdoors so dress according to the weather. Footwear considerations: The walk from the Gardens entrance to the ceremony space is on sidewalks and takes about 10 minutes. The ceremony space itself is grassy so choose footwear accordingly.

The ceremony is at the Willow Tree in DOW Gardens. A map below shows the path you can take from the front entrance (the path is in purple!), about a 10 minute walk. There will also be signs you can follow. Check back for parking updates!

If it's thunderstorming or raining really hard we may have to move the ceremony indoors. In that case, the ceremony will be held at the reception venue (Larkin Township Hall)

No, it will be a dry wedding, so we ask that you refrain from bringing alcohol. This will also help us comply with our venues' policies. Downtown Midland has many nice places to have a drink and a late-night snack if you would like after the reception is over.
