Think nice lawn/garden party! Please be aware the party is taking place on gravel and lawn surfaces - wear heels or dress shoes at your own risk. Expect cooler temps in evening which may need a jacket!

Food includes - appetizers/snacks, dinner, desserts, and late-night pizza. Gluten and Dairy Free options are available - though we cannot guarantee against cross contamination! 

Alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks provided

We will have parking behind the arena (for accessibility needs) or in the fields. You will be directed on where to park as you arrive - we encourage carpooling if possible. 

Two porta-potties available behind the arena. 

Walking surfaces include large gravel, fine gravel, and uneven fields. Expect travel on uneven, paved roads to our home (and watch out for deer). Minimal lighting after dark on roads.

We have never tried to use a rideshare to/from our home and cannot promise it will work out here (it probably does not). Please plan accordingly!

You are welcome to camp out here - we have plenty of space! Bring your own tent/supplies and changes of clothes. Showers not included (sorry). We will direct you to where you can set up a tent! 

*Please reach out ASAP and let us know if you are planning to camp and if you would like to join us for breakfast in the morning :)

We are not registered anywhere at this time - we have always valued building our future and experiences over items and are blessed to have the things we need :) 

Please see below if you would like to contribute towards our honeymoon/life fund! The funds will go to experiences during our honeymoon (dinners, boat rides, museums, etc.) or towards big-kid life purchases (a mini-excavator and remodeling our home). We appreciate so much everyone who has thought of gifting to us!
