The reception is located just 2 km (1.24 mi) up the road from West Edmonton Mall and the Klamm family home. There are also multiple stores and restaurants in the immediate area. The hotel will have rooms at a discount for people coming for the reception. They also have discount passes available for attractions at West Edmonton Mall, such as the Galaxy Land amusement park and the water park.
We will have more information regarding accommodations and reception in the posts to follow, and we will be including information on a variety of activities and attractions for the out of town visitors and families.
