Questions? Answered.

Everything else you might be wondering.

When is the RSVP deadline?

No stress, but let's aim for early October. We want to make sure there's plenty of food, cake, and fun to go around.

What will the weather be like?

November in the Driftless likes to keep us guessing. It could be crisp and mild, or cold and windy, with freezing temperatures possible at night. Layers are queen!

What should I wear?

Somewhere between “be comfortable” and “it's a party!” Nothing too fancy - just wear something you feel good in and have a little fun with it.

Is the party indoors or outdoors?

We'll be celebrating inside the barn at Sittin' Pretty Farm, which has heat and doors to keep us cozy. There is a short walk over gravel to get inside, so plan accordingly.

What kind of shoes should I wear?

We wouldn't recommend pokey heels. Between the gravel outside and the rustic barn floors inside, comfortable, stable shoes are your friend.

Should I bring a gift?

NOPE! Don't even think about it. We just want to celebrate Beth with all of our favorite people in one place.
