Goodtree Farmstead gave us the most beautiful wedding. The venue was wonderful and they were so responsive and accommodating in the planning process. It’s the perfect location for a ceremony and reception, with plenty of space for guests to play, eat, and roam around throughout the day. The farm at night, with all the lights, created a great atmosphere for drinks and dancing. The backdrop of the trees, and the barn, and water made beautiful wedding pictures. I cannot recommend this venue and team enough for your event!

From the moment we stepped into Watson Block we just knew it was exactly what we were looking for in a venue. If your vibe is intimate, romantic, old world charm this is your spot. Pictures don’t do it justice and it’s so beautiful you truly need very little to make it your own. Gaby was incredible for the entire planning process all the way through to our big day. We did almost everything ourselves- including creating an arch to be married under, to signage, to table decor, even our own wedding flowers. Gaby answered every question with ease and was incredible at assuaging my nerves. She and her team set things up perfectly from the ceremony to the switch for dinner and then dancing. I often questioned if we needed a day of coordinator and was so happy I didn’t waste my money on one because it wasn’t needed. I never knew a day could be as truly magical as our wedding was and a huge part of that was how much we loved our venue. I would happily suggest it to anyone asking. The other huge bonus is it was truly one of if not the best value for venues in the twin cities. This gem will continue to gain notoriety as an incredible venue for years to come!!

From our first conversation with Ritz Banquet Minneapolis, we appreciated how quickly they responded to our questions and broke down all the costs clearly so there were no surprises. We chose them to handle our entire wedding for 100 guests, including the banquet hall, catering, bar service, and even the cutlery, and they delivered on every front. The venue itself is stunning with elegant furniture, plenty of space, and an ambience that felt refined without being stuffy. Their food was excellent—honestly, we considered outside catering options but decided to go with their in-house team and we're so glad we did. The staff kept everything running smoothly throughout the night, and our guests couldn't stop complimenting how well put together everything was. We'd highly recommend Ritz Banquet Minneapolis to any couple looking for an all-in-one venue that handles the details with sophistication.
