Outdoor Wedding and reception

laboelter

Hello!

I need some help. I have always wanted an outdoor wedding and reception. We will have about 200 people and would like to use our own caterer and bartender service.
We have looked at the new Barn in Eden Prairie, but no outdoor space.
Camrose Hill Flower Garden in Stillwater.. Love it but a lot of work because you have to bring everything.
Next week we are looking at Hope Glenn Farm.

Any other suggestions?!

Thanks!

We had our ceremony at Black Bear Crossing in St. Paul. They can also do an outdoor reception under the pavillion, but you would have to use their caterer. I can't speak to how their food is since we only had our ceremony there, but it is a beautiful location, and the staff there is really wonderful to work with. Def worth checking out!

Have you looked into any of the state/regional parks?  We are having ours at Bunker Hills in Andover. They have special fees and permits, but we are able to do our own food/alcohol.

You could also ask around. We found a horse barn through a friend. The guy doesn't advertise his barn but will rent it out to family and friends.

The Still Farm has a large outdoor space behind the barn..You can choose your own licensed caterers.  Located in Downing Wis. 35 min. East of Hudson, Wi.
