Can Our Kiddos Join The Wedding Day?
While we absolutely adore your little ones, we unfortunately cannot accommodate them all on our wedding day. Unless they are specifically addressed on the invite, we hope you'll take this opportunity to enjoy a carefree evening, let loose, and make unforgettable memories with us!
Although they can't join us on the big day, we'd love for you to bring them along to the welcome reception the night before to share in the hugs, laughter, and excitement as we anticipate our special day.
Can I Bring A Plus One?
We’re so excited to celebrate this special day with our nearest and dearest. To keep the guest list manageable, we kindly ask that you do not bring a plus one unless it is specified on your invitation. If you have any changes or special requests, please feel free to reach out to us. Thank you for your understanding!
What Should I Wear?
As we prepare to say 'I do,' we're dressing our best and we hope you will too! We kindly request that you join us in formal cocktail attire.
Suit & tie, dressy jumpsuits, formal separates, slacks with a button-up, cocktail dresses, and floor-length dresses are all welcome!
What Will The Weather Be Like?
It's Duluth in November... expect the unexpected! It could be 65°F and sunny, or single digits and snowing. The average high is around 43°F, and the average low is about 28°F. Duluth typically receives about 0.5 inches of snowfall by November 2nd. Whether it's snow or high winds, the day must go on—prepare for cozy winter wedding vibes!
Does The Garden Have Parking?
The Garden offers convenient parking off Lake Ave S, right behind the building by the lake. For the wedding, please park there and enter through the Harborside entrance, or enjoy a short walk to the Lake Avenue entrance. Note that this lot may charge a fee during nearby events. If so, feel free to park in any other lot around Canal Park that does not charge.
Will Transportation Be Provided?
No transportation services will be provided, however, our venue and hotel blocks are either within walking distance or a short drive from each other, with ample parking available! Please arrange your transportation to and from the welcome reception at Pier B the night before, and the wedding venue at The Garden on the big day, as needed!
What’s the plan for keeping the party spirits high? Will there be a bar?
It’s a party, absolutely there will be a bar! We’ll have a fantastic DJ and provide a selection of hosted beer and wine up to a limited amount. A full bar will be available for any additional drinks with cash or card. We hope this helps with your plans, and we can’t wait to dance the night away with you!
