Our weekend is coming quick, we’re only a week away from fun and the celebration! We wanted to send out some more information and reminders before the stay.
For starters, you are welcome to come any time after 11am on Friday. We will be doing lots of set up, but the resort is for us to use and enjoy. When you put the address for Footprints Resort into your GPS, you will miss the proper driveway, but we will have a couple road signs just before the drive and a banner at the entrance to get you in the right spot.
To get the keys to your room, someone from your party will meet with one of the bridesmaids to get you checked in. Everyone will need to fill out a resort waiver before getting room keys. The waiver is for be use of the BBQ’s, watersports equipment, bikes, pool, and trails on the resort.
There are lots of BBQ’s should you wish to cook yourself some fixings at any time. Every room has a bigger size mini fridge to keep your bevvies cool and the water at the resort is drinkable.
Rooms also have Keurig coffee machine. A couple pods will be there along with coffee mugs. We will also have coffee in the outdoor kitchen and main lobby, along with sugar, milk and cream. We are trying to be conscious of our waste, however, we will provide small disposable cups. If you use the coffee mug provided you will be responsible for cleaning it. If you have a favourite reusable coffee thermal you can bring that.
There are two large kitchens on the site that are very well equipped. Saturday the main lobby/chalet will be closed as the Bride and her team will be getting ready there.
Dress code! We want everyone to be relaxed, be comfortable and have fun. Please wear comfortable dress attire (comfy shoes recommended due to the rocky/grassy terrain). The Bride, Groom and Entourage will be dressed to impress. We ask that you save the track suit and swim trunks for before and after the parttyyyy! Bonus points for a floral after dinner as Matt loves a good Hawaiian shirt!
Some things you may want to bring:
- Water bottle
- Saturday lunch
- Snacks
- Bug spray – the scent of the wedding will be bug spray (arôme bug repulse), don’t worry about perfume or cologne
- Towel for the beach & a towel for the shower
- Some water bottles for your room if you don’t want to drink the tap water
- Water shoes (not necessary but may be preferred)
- Sunscreen
- Comfy shoes/sneakers – the resort is not paved and has lots of gravel
