Our Wedding

It's happening!

Hi everyone! We're so looking forward to seeing you and celebrating our marriage on June 19.

Here is&nbsp;some information that might be helpful as you make your plans for attending. Our wedding ceremony and reception will all be held at Whistler's Knoll, a vineyard in Hortonville that is about a 15-20 minute drive from Appleton. The ceremony will be outdoors, along with the cocktail hour afterward. Dinner will be held in an open-air pavilion and tent, with music and dancing in the pavilion afterward. We'll be working with our&nbsp;venue and&nbsp;caterer to take extra precautions to keep our guests safe and&nbsp;ensure there will be plenty of space for everyone to spread out. We know a lot of our guests have been vaccinated for COVID-19 but we certainly understand and encourage wearing masks if that will make you more comfortable gathering with us. Masks or no masks, we can't wait to see you!&nbsp; 







For attire, please feel free to wear something "dressy casual" that you will be comfortable in regardless of the weather, since the venue is mostly outdoors, and wear&nbsp;something that you're able to move around in since we'll have yard games and of course, dancing!&nbsp;The ground is grassy, so you also may want to avoid too-high stiletto heels.







For those of you who are coming from the Country Inn & Suites or the Hampton Inn on Fox River Drive&nbsp;in Appleton&nbsp;and would like a ride to and from the venue, one&nbsp;school bus shuttle&nbsp;will &nbsp;leave from the hotels' shared parking lot at 2:20 p.m., &nbsp;and the second school bus shuttle will leave at 2:30 p.m., arriving at the venue by 2:50 p.m.&nbsp;The shuttle will go back and forth from the venue to the hotel later in the evening starting around 8:30 p.m. 







If you're looking for something to do and want to say hello to Katie and Adam&nbsp;on Friday night, June 18, we'll be hanging out on the patio&nbsp;at D2 Sports Pub (403 W. College Ave.)&nbsp;in downtown Appleton around 7:30 p.m.,&nbsp;after we wrap up our rehearsal. We should be there for a couple of hours. Or if you need other Appleton&nbsp;area recommendations, here are some of our favorites:&nbsp;<a href="https://www.theknot.com/us/katie-hermsen-and-adam-hoebelheinrich-jun-2021/details?preview=true#our-favorite-appleton-spots">https://www.theknot.com/us/kat...</a>







On Sunday, we'll be saying goodbye to guests in the conference room at the Country Inn &&nbsp;Suites. Please stop by for a hug and a bagel before you check out of your hotel and&nbsp;head out of town.

















Looking forward to seeing you all soon, whether in person at the wedding&nbsp;or over Zoom or FaceTime! In the meantime, if you need to get in touch with us, feel free to email us at katiehermsen@gmail.com or ahoebelheinrich@gmail.com.

Wedding Attempt #2

Adam began working for the Green Bay Packers in September 2014. Still a little nervous about the new gig, he was glad a nice staff lunch was provided at the end of his first week...a good chance to meet a lot of his new co-workers. He sat at a table and met a number of his future friends for the first time, as well as his future bride. Katie immediately took a liking to this new cute guy at work. Unfortunately, Adam chose to be&nbsp;a little too enamored in his work and he didn't make much time for much socializing. Katie was patient, and they soon began hanging out with mutual friends near the end of the season and into the offseason. Both Katie and Adam were SLOWLY moving along until April when Adam had a few people over to watch the Wisconsin Badgers take on the undefeated Kentucky Wildcats in the Final 4. Long story short, Adam became a big UW fan that night as he talked a nervous Katie through a long, nerve-wracking game. Lucky for all, the Badgers won and the celebration was on. Lacey, a mutual friend, saw what was brewing between her two co-workers and laid it out for them. "You like her, you like him...go for it!" They did, and they've been together ever since (thanks Lacey).

Downtown Appleton Farmer's Market

An Appleton classic, especially for a Friday night fish fry!&nbsp;Be sure to finish your meal with an ice cream cocktail.

Mark's East Side

Best place in town for Italian food, and it's just around the corner from the hotels, near the Fox River Mall!

Carmella's an Italian Bistro

Excellent craft brewery with delicious burgers and pizzas, near downtown Appleton.

Stone Arch Brewpub

Great appetizers, tacos and burgers and an awesome patio.

Houdini's Escape Gastropub

The best brunch in Appleton! Very near to the hotel and the perfect place for pre-wedding pancakes or post-wedding eggs benedict.

Katie's favorite coffee shop from her high school days! Grab a coffee or a snack to go and stroll around downtown Appleton's Saturday morning farmer's market.

Copper Rock Coffee Company

Stop by the iconic Cleo's for a dirty snowball! This cocktail bar is decked out in holiday lights and decorations, even in the middle of summer.

Cleo's Brown Beam Tavern
