DIY FLOWER CROWNS
Back by popular demand, the “Make-Your-Own-Floral-Crown” station is the perfect way to get creative and relax with your girls. Grab a yummy drink, do a little DIY-ing, and then snap photos of your floral crown in the cute photo booths. (Can anyone say “Insta-worthy?” ;)) Huge thank you to Haute House Studio for providing all the materials!
WHERE TO PARK
We love that our event offers FREE parking! The best option is to park in any of the Mall of America parking lots and ramps. The closest to the Radisson Blu entry would be parking by Macy’s.
*Keep in mind that parking in the Radisson Blu ramp is not free.
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS:
“If I purchased a ticket for the a later time slot, is it okay if I show up a little earlier?”
Absolutely! You don’t necessarily have to stick by the time-slot that you originally chose. You may come when you please. They are just suggested times.
“I have a friend who decided the day-of that she wants to come. Can she get a discount at the door?”
As the saying goes––the more the merrier. However, tickets will be the full-price of $20 at the door, so make sure they buy them in advance so they can get them on sale too!
“Will there be a place to but my coat?”
Definitely! We know how cold and unpredictable this good ole’ Minnesota weather can be. So we have a free coatcheck!
