We had our wedding at Next Chapter Winery, and it was the BEST decision ever! We rented both the pavilion and barrel room with 200 guests June 2022. Jackie and Jeff the managers were fantastic to work with! There was never a line for drinks, they helped our vendors day of with questions, and our requests were flawlessly met! We stopped in on our anniversary this year, and they added new features that go above any beyond other wineries for weddings. We love the new ceremony walkway they added. You can tell they really love and care about their clientele as they continue to evolve the winery. My family and friends continue to talk about our wedding for the scenic and intimate celebration.

A little while ago I reached out to The 3 Ten Event Venue to host my parents' 50th Wedding Anniversary. From that moment on it was an amazing experience! The First 10: Communication. I had a lot of questions about the space, how things would work (this was coming out of a lot of unknowns from the Covid restrictions and such). Every question was answered promptly with a wealth of information. It truly made me feel at ease and knew that this would be a good experience. As we progressed with the planning and details the coordinators really helped. I thought I was pretty savvy with planning and ideas, but their suggestions and guidance really brought it all together. The Second 10: The Space. For our size of group, the upstairs was a perfect spot. I love historic buildings and the way they designed the space really celebrates the history, but also incorporates modern amenities that bring a fresh feel. It was great for our anniversary party, but I could see hosting pretty much any occasion there. The Third 10: Service. Echoing the great communication I mentioned earlier, the service seamlessly took up the reins when our event began. All the details were on point. Staff was all very professional and attentive. I know that The 3 Ten hosts a lot of weddings and that really showed with this 50th Wedding Anniversary - it all came together in a way that really celebrated their wedding. While most of us at the event were not there when they were married 50 years ago, we all left with feeling closer to it than before, a new of sense appreciation and celebrating that day. It was just touches that they did that I didn't expect and it was executed beautifully.

The Carriage House can accommodate 150 guests in the warm months and 100 in the winter. The space flows into the gardens and expansive patio area for additional seating. Now booking for year-round events! We do still have room for a 2024 wedding! Now booking 2025.

If you are searching for a Venue that is exquisite, chic and elegant check out Garten Markeplatz Perennial Farms! We were hired by the bride and groom to provide bartending services. This venue is filled with history, floral and landscaping that is beyond beautiful during the day and the evening hours are lit up with an amber lighting that brings the whole mood together. They were so accommodating, not only to the bride and groom but to the vendors that were hired. The owners and staff were all so personable, friendly and very helpful, they definitely went above and beyond for their clients! I hope to celebrate another event there someday!

Our Century Old Red Barn breathes authenticity. Built in 1898, you will be drawn to the wood-pegged hand-hewn beams the moment you step through the immense sliding barn door into this stunning space.

Our spacious venue seats over 300 guests, in addition, our well-groomed lawns are for the perfect setting for the outdoor ceremony you desire. We are nestled within acres of rolling open countryside.

Charming and well-appointed Bridal and Groom's dressing suites are available. We boast of a large catering kitchen with abundant counter space and appliances.

This is an amazing venue to work with. The staff is amazing and on-site. We were able to have any vendors we wanted. Valet parking is amazing. There was no surprise pricing. Everything is upfront and open. The value for what we get is amazing. We could be there all weekend. The planning meetings were super helpful and the venue is just gorgeous. 10/10 recommend

GarageTown LLC

5.0

Waterville, MN
  • Up to 200 guests
  • Limited services
  • Indoor & outdoor

Our ol' 10 acre charm farm dates back to before MN was a state in the abstract. It's been in Brady’s family since the summer of '69 and we plan to keep it that way for generations to come. The original family that homesteaded the property came from Czechoslovakia. They built the hand-hewn log cabin on a boulder foundation and owned it for 112 years. Brady grew up in the home since '87 which has transformed over time into the gem that we have today. We kickstarted our journey at GarageTown LLC with our wedding in August, 2021. We look forward to creating more memories and sharing our historic and creative property with you! Forever Grateful, Brady & Jenni

Awarded Best of Zola
This place is a showstopper!! There’s a rustic retro charm to the place partnered with a beautiful green yard, plants, and trees. Brady was so professional and prompt with responding to our inquiries and was more than happy to tell us the story of how the place came to be- so cool! He and his wife Jennifer really know how to decorate and bring this venue to life. Your guests will be talking about this wedding venue for years to come. From antique cars, handmade pergola, nature-filled pond, rustic bar, clematis flower arches, to lush trees/grass you’ll have the perfect unique setting with countless photo opportunities for you and your guests. And if you think it looks good in the daylight, you should see it lit up at night - breathtaking. I highly recommend this venue to anybody looking to make lasting memories at a gorgeous location.

We are conveniently located at the crossroads of Interstate I-90 and Highway 169, hosting a premier location for weddings, business events, family reunions, graduations, and other events.

Awarded Best of Zola
When looking for a vendor, we wanted some place we could have our wedding outside, but have a back up if you needed it. Not only is MTS farm a beautiful place to get married, they have added features in the recent years to make you’re wedding day less stressful. They’ve a great selection of decor you can chose from, so you don’t have to rent from another vendor to decorate your wedding. We just added some fresh flowers and some other small features, but majority of the decorations for our wedding came from them. We were the first to use their bridal suite. It is gorgeous, and was so fun to get ready with all my bridesmaids all in one spot. We had the make up and hair team come out to the farm. Way less stressful than going to a salon, or getting ready at the hotel. So much room for my wedding party which included myself, matron of honor, 5 bridesmaid, 1 personal attendants, and my mother all getting ready! And now they added a grooms suite on-site as well! Michele was great to work with, always so quick to respond, and really goes out of her way to make it easy on the bride and truly wants your wedding to be all that you hoped for! Would so look into renewing of vows here when that time comes around in the future!

Rosedale Park Event Center

5.0

Cedar Rapids, IA
  • Up to 250 guests
  • All-inclusive
  • Indoor & outdoor
  • Starts at $5,000

Located on Mt. Vernon Rd. SE in Cedar Rapids (10 minutes from downtown Cedar Rapids), our indoor and outdoor spaces are designed to hold events for up to 250 guests. Spacious grounds with open and wooded areas provide ample settings for photos. On-site catering and a staffed bar make it easy for you to get exactly what you want for food and drink. Our dedicated staff is present to make the process smooth and simple, and we’re so excited to help you celebrate!

I can't say enough good things about Rosedale. Firstly, the venue is stunningly beautiful. It really needs no "dressing-up". Secondly, Jen is so nice and so helpful. Not only did she answer all my silly questions but did so promptly and with a smile. Working with this venue was such a breeze it felt odd not to have to worry about so many things. We chose to go with the all inclusive package which meant we had access to the whole venue from getting ready to our outdoor photos, ceremony in the beautiful gazebo, and the reception hall. Lastly, the catering is fantastic. We attended multiple tastings and loved everything they served. We ultimately went with the classic menu simply because it fit into our budget the best. If we had more room in the budget, we would have gone with a custom menu because we tasted so many delicious offerings that were not on a set menu. I would highly recommend this venue and catering company.
