Directions and Tips

Hey hey!!! It's almost here!

We discovered tonight that some people's GPS leads them to a random house if they use the address given below. So when you're entering it into your GPS, try to enter "Sandpiper Boat Ramp, Polk, Iowa". Or if its helpful, we are on the south side of Hwy 415, just on the east edge of Polk City, next to the Marina.
 
If you are able to locate the Sandpiper Boat Ramp on your GPS or on Google Maps, that's awesome. The shelter is right before the ramp, on that same road (McBride Drive). So you'll enter the park, go by a little brown welcome building, and the shelter will be on the left. We'll have signs to help.

OR I have the latitude and longitude:    41.754651,-93.710843

So if you copy and paste that in Google or Bing maps, it will take you to exactly where you need to be!

41.754651,-93.710843

Consult the maps below as well. We will have signs on Hwy 415 that point to the turn-off and there is a brown sign that says Sandpiper on it.

Polk City natives are also very friendly and if you find yourself at Casey's, they'll point you in the right direction!

We can't wait to see you all! Hopefully the weather cools down a bit!

Love,
John & Em

Rain, Rain, Go Away!

Quick wedding update: I've been checking the extended forecast numerous times. (almost obsessively) Right now, after an unseasonably cool and dry August, it looks like it's going to be hot and rainy on the big day. :(

If it rains ... Well ... It rains. :) We will move the ceremony to the shelter and make it work. Be prepared for mud volleyball instead of sand volleyball!

Until then, pray for sunshine!

We are 9 days away and getting more and more excited. Rain or shine, I know we will have a blast!
