Dorms for My Cheap Friends

In addition to the block of reserved hotel rooms, there is space at Folklore Village for a little slumber party for 25 of our closest friends on the night of the wedding. There are two buildings with twin beds and open floor plans. It's like camp, only without the tears of homesickness. This space is especially well suited for the young'ns who like to stay up past 10pm and would like to save some dough. (And you won't have to worry about a designated driver. Sweet!) It would cost something like $10 a person to sleep there. There are showers on site. (2 for the ladies, 2 for the gents. And you need to bring your quarters. We are talking rustic, people!) The catch: YOU NEED TO TELL US IF YOU ARE INTERESTED. We have to reserve the space as part of the rental contract, and we won't do it unless there are enough people who would like to spend the night. You can camp out there, too, so if we have too many interested parties, we'll start assigning people to tents. So if you want in, email us at jennhuck (at) gmail (dot) com.

What Not to Wear


Do you like that show? I do.

We will be outdoors in June in Wisconsin. Could be nice, but you never know. We are thinking "garden casual." You will also be walking around on grass, so leave your stilettos at home.
