Please wear black. The dress code will be all black, formal wedding wear. We'll expect men to wear black suits and ties, and women to wear black, floor-length gowns or cocktail dresses, black pantsuits, or black dressy separates.

We would appreciate all RSVPs submitted no later than August 10th, as this allows us ample time to prepare for your attendance!

There will be no formal dinner provided post-ceremony. We will be providing hors d'oeuvres during the cocktail hour, as well as sweet treats and late-night snacks later into the evening reception. We recommend exploring what Minneapolis has to offer, with a dinner reservation prior to the 7pm ceremony. We have created a list of our favorite dining options near the venue on our "Dinner Options" page!

The ceremony will start at 7pm. Please plan to arrive at 6:30pm to ensure you're seated as the ceremony begins.

Weather permitting, we are planning to have the ceremony outdoors on the venue's attached private patio. If weather does not allow for this, the ceremony will be moved indoors. Average temperature during the ceremony is ~60 degrees, please plan accordingly. Coat check will be available as needed (for your black coat).

There is a parking garage at 201 2nd St SE (St Anthony Main Parking Ramp). The entrance into the garage is located on 2nd Ave SE. Overnight parking is available. There may also be parking meters available outside the venue, which can be paid in-person via the pay station, or the Minneapolis Parking App (we highly recommend the App, as it will send you notifications as your parking space is close to expiring, and allows you to extend your reservation through the App).

We are excited to be hosting our wedding ceremony and reception at Minneapolis Event Centers located at 212 2nd St SE, Minneapolis, MN 55414. We recommend parking in the St. Anthony ramp across the street located at 201 2nd St SE, Minneapolis, MN 55414. Please note that there are 3 separate wedding venues at this location. We will be in The Grand 1858 which is in the east most section of the building. The ceremony will be outside with a gated entrance to the ceremony area. Each of these venues have their own entrance. There should be staff on site to assist and help direct people to their proper events.

To allow all of our guests the opportunity to let their hair down and enjoy themselves, we've elected to make our wedding a child-free event.

The greatest gift you can give us today is to be truly present, so please turn off all phones and cameras during the ceremony and enjoy this special moment with us.
