I recently hosted my son’s wedding rehearsal dinner at BK Wedding & Event Venue, and it was a truly wonderful experience from start to finish. The event planner, Laura, was a pleasure to work with—always friendly, responsive, and genuinely committed to making the evening special. What really stood out was how open they were to our ideas and food preferences. We were free to choose any type of food/meal we wanted, and everything tasted exceptional. The event space itself is beautiful and made a perfect setting for such a meaningful occasion. I’m grateful to the team at BK for making everything easy and helping create such a memorable night.

I photographed my first wedding at the Jerome last winter. It was such a unique space! I'd love to return!! The exposed brick and black accents were great inside the venue. I also thought the big windows at the front of the building gave good opportunities to get some indoor, natural light photos in the cold winter. The wedding party used an airbnb in town that was perfect for getting ready. I love when small businesses work together like that for a couple!

Coyote Moon Grille was the perfect venue for our wedding. From the first time we met with Lindsey, her communication was fast, honest, and professional. The private event space and bar, with both indoor and outdoor accommodations, was exactly what we were looking for.

My husband and I just got married at The Refuge a few weeks ago, and we could not have asked for a more perfect wedding venue! Our entire weekend from the rehearsal dinner, getting ready in the bridal suite, the ceremony, dinner, and the reception was absolutely amazing. The venue, wedding ceremony location, bridal suite, and banquet area are all incredibly beautiful. The breakfast and lunch we had in the bridal suite getting ready, and the dinner during our reception was phenomenal. We served oven roasted chicken and fresh salmon, our guests are still talking about how great the food was! Our wedding was everything we could have dreamed of and more, and we cannot thank our wedding coordinator, Lisa, and the rest of the Refuge staff for making our wedding the best weekend of our entire lives! If we could do it all over again, we would absolutely choose The Refuge!!! 10/10!

Reeds & Rushes is an amazing venue! When we first toured the place, it was still under construction, but we trusted Curtis and Maddy's vision. They truly impressed us with the final result. With the wood details and black and white accents, the venue provides the perfect backdrop for your special day. We were thrilled with the addition of the dock and the pergolas in the back patio. Our outdoor ceremony by the lake was beautiful. The Bridal & Groom suites were terrific, I loved that the Groom suite had a golf simulator – it kept the guys entertained while they waited! The Bridal suite was also gorgeous and spacious enough for 8 girls. Curtis and Maddy were excellent to work with, very responsive, and always helpful whenever we had any questions. I would definitely recommend them!

The Holiday Inn & Suites St. Cloud, an IHG Hotel, was an excellent choice for our wedding venue. From the moment we first reached out, the staff were available, open, and kind in their communication style. The quality of their work and the value they provided was excellent - the space was spacious and well-organized, which made our wedding day run smoothly. The staff were all incredibly helpful, accommodating, and courteous, and the food they provided was absolutely delicious. We couldn't have asked for a better venue to host our special day.

I can't say enough great things about Wicked Wort. When we got engaged, we didn't give our venue a second thought. The inside of the brewery is so cool and unique, it made for some amazing photos. The day of, I didn't have to think about anything, they were all so great at taking care of what needed to be done. The best thing about having our wedding here? It was working with family. There wasn't a bunch of people running around who we didn't know- it was the same faces we had met with and planned with. Steve and Tracy are about the best business owners/runners, and having their family involved makes it even cooler. I look back on our photos and think about they day with so much joy- the pictures are as unique as the day was- and that's how it should be :) We wouldn't have changed a thing of how our big day went- and I will keep recommending Wicked Wort forever. Thank you all so much for everything and for making us feel like part of the family.

Working with Igor at SOUL Ballroom Dance Studio was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. He took time to understand our style as a couple and choreographed a routine that felt authentic and comfortable for us to perform. Igor is patient and genuinely invested in helping his students succeed, which made every lesson enjoyable and stress-free. We went from nervous about dancing in front of everyone to actually looking forward to our first dance on the big day. The whole experience was well-organized and a great value for what we received. We'd absolutely recommend SOUL Ballroom to any couple looking to nail their wedding dance.

My husband and I recently got married at MGC on 10/21/23 and it was THE BEST DECISION! Nancy is wonderful to work with and knows her stuff. She is efficient and was always responsive, no matter how silly my question was! We received a booklet of wedding information that had a ton of great info including hotel options, vendor options, and timeline info. The ballroom is beautiful and the space that you get for your day includes a separate area for cocktail hour and is spacious enough to give your guests space to mingle. We had a live band and I was worried about the sound being too loud for guests in the ballroom but because we had the other area, people were able to mingle and talk and not everyone was stuck in the ballroom. Their food is fantastic and reasonably priced, our guests raved about it! Planning a wedding can be very stressful but MGC and Nancy do a great job helping ease some of the anxiety from your big day. I highly, highly recommend booking Minneapolis Golf Club - it's a beautiful location and venue and I'm so happy we had our reception there!

I cannot recommend enough! The entire Grands team was amazing to work with from start to finish! Joe (general manager) gave us an in-depth tour and made sure we knew all of our options. Mel (events director) made sure we stayed on track with timeline and choosing all the details. Larry (entertainment director) made sure our guests had the best time - I don't think the dance floor was ever empty! And we can't forget about Alyssa (day of coordinator) - she made sure the team had us covered in ways we would have never thought. She made the day stress-free, which was a dream! All of our guests had a great time and couldn't stop talking about how great the venue and team were. 100/10 recommend having your wedding at The Grands!

Rolling Ridge was everything we wanted in a venue! When we first saw the venue we knew it was perfect for our day because there are many wonderful options to have your ceremony, dinner and dance. We knew no matter what that if Option A (having ceremony/dance outside) didn't work out due to weather, then we were perfectly fine with Option B which would be moving everything in doors because everywhere has great ambiance which put us at ease during the planning months. From day one they were so accommodating and truly let your visions come to life. They also were so organized and provided the best planning tools so you felt like you were always on track and they helped you think of all the little details it takes to hosting a wedding. I never felt stressed or overwhelmed when working with Rolling Ridge. All of our guests were blown away by the beauty of this venue and we can't recommend them enough to any future couples.

I thought overall the New Brandon community center was a wonderful venue and the coordinator of events Britain McDonald was very helpful. Communicating was best through email, and I got a much quicker response using email. Your only thing I would say is they need to update their stereo system and their audio visual equipment. In order for us to play music over the speakers, we had to plug our devices into a a older worn input cord, and it was staticky, and the room is a separate area. So the person that was doing our music had to miss out on our ceremony because they were in another room having to hit next or play on their device to get music. So an updated system or updated way of doing it would be awesome!
