When do I need to RSVP by?
Please RSVP by Saturday, July 27th.
Will your wedding ceremony be indoors or outdoors?
Our wedding ceremony is outside at Joy Ranch, located on the outskirts of Watertown. Please dress accordingly and bring an umbrella in case of rain!
Will your wedding reception be indoors or outdoors?
Our wedding reception will be inside at the Ramkota Hotel/Event Center in Watertown.
Where can we park at the ceremony?
We will have signs and people directing you where to park, but there is a parking lot and a field where guests will be directed to park right by the ceremony spot. There will be golf carts picking up people from their vehicles if you need assistance.
Where should we park at the reception?
At the reception, we ask that you please park in the back parking lot at the Ramkota Hotel/Event Center. You can enter in from the back door and it will lead you right to the reception hall where our reception is taking place. You can also park in the front parking lot by the Ramkota Hotel entrance, and enter in through the Ramkota Hotel entrance. If possible, please do not park in front of the front Event Center entrance as there is another wedding reception taking place in that part of the building.
Can we leave our vehicles overnight at the Ramkota Hotel/Event Center?
Yes! Please leave your vehicle in the parking lot if need be. If you are utilizing the shuttle service we are providing or are using another safe ride option, please feel free to leave your vehicle overnight. If you are using the shuttle bus service, we encourage you to carpool with others staying with you so that you have a vehicle in the morning to take your friends back to their vehicle at the reception venue!
Have you reserved blocks of hotel rooms?
Yes, we have reserved blocks of hotel rooms at the Ramkota Hotel (where the reception is being held), Holiday Inn & Suites, Hampton Inn & Suites, Quality Inn & Suites, and the Country Inn & Suites in Watertown. There are different price points at each of these hotels to accommodate all guests. Additionally, there are various Airbnb's, Vrbo's, and campgrounds you can book for the night/weekend.
Is there transportation following the reception/dance?
Yes, there will be a shuttle bus to take guests to their hotel, AirBnb, house (in Watertown), starting at 11 PM to 2 AM. There will not be a shuttle bus taking guests to the ceremony or reception venues, so please plan accordingly.
