Hi everyone!
Fi and I are planning a wedding for Summer/Fall 2014 but need help with venue suggestions in Minneapolis/St. Paul.
Criteria:
- can hold 450-500 people
- classy/romantic
- no crazy minimums (spoke with The Depot -- they want a 40,000 minimum!!)
- budget is more in the 10,000-20,000 range
- provides wedding planning services or has a really good caterer. Basically, i dont want to be stuck ordering table cloths because our venue doesn't do anything but unlock doors for us.
So far, I have liked International Market Square, The Great Hall in St. Paul, and the Depot. But the Depot is out of the question now because of cost.
Thanks!
Nora

They don't meet all of your criteria, but the Courtyards of Andover has a large enough indoor reception space for that number of guests. It also has a beautiful garden ceremony site if you're looking for an outdoor ceremony. I don't think they have an in house caterer, but that just means you can bring in anyone you want (which is often a money saver)
Some ideas in the northwest suburbs of Minneapolis:
Earle Brown Heritage Center and Minneapolis Marriott Northwest

park ballroom in new prague
First trust center in St. Paul? I have seen many a prom done there and looks amazing all dolled up.
not many venues can handle 450-500 guests, but they can and they have a beautiful garden out back that hosts ceremonies all the time
