Awarded Best of Zola
We were married at Laumeier Sculpture Park in 1999, so when our 25th Silver Anniversary rolled around this year we decided to do it again!! This park has always been a favorite of ours since high school - so to return to the original spot meant so much to us. The staff at Laumeier are just amazing! They were quick with responses to questions and went above and beyond with the planning. We live out of town and they were gracious enough to meet with me when I came to town a few weeks before to walk through everything ahead of time. The day of, the staff did everything possible to accommodate our wishes and be sure other park goers knew that the space was saved for a wedding. We just cannot say enough about this park and venue for weddings. Beautiful setting, easy to access for all the guests and top notch staff - hopefully we will do it again when the Golden Anniversary comes around!! If you’re thinking of holding a wedding here, please do!! It is a magical place and photos after are so much fun!
