When do I need to RSVP?
Kindly submit your RSVP by May 30, 2025, using the RSVP page on our wedding website.
I see there is an RSVP for the After Party. What's that?
Since Stillwater's Lumberjack Days are scheduled for the same weekend as our wedding, we wanted to ensure that we would have a space big enough for our group to keep the party going once we get off the boat.
Please join us at Gio's (317 South Main Street, Stillwater, MN 55082) at 10:00 p.m. The restaurant is within walking distance of the boarding dock, so if you do take your own vehicle, you will not have to give up your parking spot. Late night food will be provided, and a cash bar will be available.
Where will the wedding take place?
The wedding will take place on The Showboat on the St. Croix River. The ceremony will take place on the top deck, and a cocktail hour, dinner, and dancing will follow on board.
Where and when do I board the boat?
To board the boat, please go to the Stillwater River Boats boarding dock (525 South Main Street, Stillwater, MN 55082). Boarding begins at 4:30 p.m., and the boat will leave the dock promptly at 5:00 p.m.
Will downtown Stillwater be busy?
YES! Stillwater's Lumberjack Days are scheduled for the same weekend as our wedding, so it will be significantly busier downtown than usual. This will create a fantastic atmosphere in which to celebrate, but please plan accordingly to ensure you arrive on time to board the boat.
Where can I park?
There is parking available at the boarding dock, but it is limited. If you plan to drive your own vehicle, please arrive early enough to ensure you have plenty of time to park and board the boat before 5:00 p.m. Because Stillwater's Lumberjack Days are scheduled for the same weekend as our wedding, parking spaces will be in high demand.
A parking map provided by Stillwater River Boats can be found by copying/pasting the following link into your Internet browser: https://stillwaterriverboats.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/06/parking-map.pdf. As you will see, there is public parking located in other nearby areas downtown within walking distance of the boarding dock.

How do I pay for parking?
While you can generally pay with a credit or debit card using the machine located in your parking area, some parking areas require the Passport Parking App, which makes paying for parking easy.
You can download the Passport Parking App on any smart phone. Once downloaded, you will be prompted to enter certain information, including your phone number. The App will text you a verification code to confirm your identity. Once you enter the verification code and provide your credit or debit card information, simply enter your license plate number, the zone you are parked in, and how much parking time you would like to purchase.
Is Uber available?
Yes, Uber is available. We strongly encourage guests to Uber to the boarding dock to avoid parking problems and ensure they board the boat on time.
