Wedding
Our October Fourth wedding will be held outdoors at Historic Murphy's Landing,
overlooking the Minnesota River. The reception will be held just a few steps away
under the picnic pavilion.
Come early for carraige rides around the grounds, starting at 3:30pm
The ceremony will start at 4:30pm. Cocktail hour begins at 5pm,
followed by dinner, and dancing until 11pm.
Weather
Weather in early October can vary, but generally
the highs are in the mid-60's to low-70's, and the low's are around 50 degrees. Rain
is possible, but October is typically dry. The Farmer's Almanac predicts
a slighly warmer and dryer October than average.

Please join us at Memorial Park at 11am for a picnic lunch, catered by Divine Swine.
Memorial park is just west of Murphy's Landing. We'll be hanging out until 2 or 3pm.
