Reception

We are very excited to have you come celebrate our happy day with us! Below you'll find some stuff we think is important, some suggestions and bunch of additional information. If anything isn't answered, please don't hesitate to contact us!

General Information

We're getting hitched on September 3rd, 2022, and we're pretty excited about it! Our ceremony will be private, but you're all invited to come celebrate with us after - and we hope you do!

Before we get into the fun stuff, let's get this out of the way: PLEASE if you are experiencing any cold or flu-like symptoms, stay home and get well. We know you will be with us in spirit!

The reception will be held at Constantine in Minneapolis, and will be an open house style cocktails and canapés gathering - so drinks and small bites. It will also have an open bar featuring a bride and groom cocktail, a selection of beers, and non-alcoholic options (mocktails, soda, etc.).

Just a quick note - the space is on the small side and there is no dance floor. Other traditional wedding reception events are not planned, either. We're just hoping to have everyone mingle and enjoy each others company!

Requests

Our primary request is that you come enjoy yourself and spend some time with us at this celebration. Outside of that, please review the requests below and reach out if you have any questions or concerns.

  • Constantine is a small cocktail bar with a large number of dark spaces and open flames. While we have gotten approval to have underage guests attend, the venue isn't very kid friendly, so we ask that children under the age of 10 stay home for safety reasons and, well, moral concerns.

  • Since there will be an open bar, please consider booking a hotel room to enjoy the evening with us and have a safe space to return to at the end of the celebration. A few hotel options close to the venue are noted below, as well as parking info.

  • Gifts are not expected, and we are not registered anywhere because we already have 2 crockpots, 3 coffee machines, and copious amounts of other housewares! Just come celebrate with us! We will have a place for cards, though, because they always make us smile!

Location

Constantine is a cocktail bar located in the basement of The Hotel Ivy in downtown Minneapolis. The address is:
