The Madison was an incredible venue for our wedding. From the moment we heard the ownership was changing our hearts dropped. But Brad and Louise were extremely clear and available to answer any and all of our questions (even honored all of our odd/weird requests). On the day of the wedding, they went completely above and beyond to ensure our special day was perfect. The venue itself is open, spacious, and cozy - creating the ideal atmosphere for our celebration. The owners are the most caring and sweet people, and they truly made us feel at home. We are so grateful to have had our wedding at The Madison and would recommend it to any couple looking for a beautiful, welcoming, and stress-free venue.

Hope Glen Farm 

5.0

Cottage Grove, MN
  • Up to 280 guests
  • Select services
  • Indoor & outdoor
  • Starts at $1,500

In 1910, President Taft signed the bill to establish Glacier National Park as the country’s 10th national park. Mr. Healy was given a plumbing contractor for the train depot here in St. Paul, where he met Samuel Bartlett, the architect of many of the railroad depots and Glacier National Park Lodge. Healy then commissioned Bartlett to renovate and enlarge the house. In 1914, the farm was sold to John Healy, the owner of Healy Plumbing and Heating Company of St. Paul. Mr. Healy’s company became closely tied to the Great Northern Railroad, as it provided the heating and plumbing for many of the train depots that were being built around the country at that time. The farm was named Hope Glen Farm, the name of John Healy’s mother’s maiden name of Hope, and the house settles in a Glen, thus Hope Glen.

We loved Hope Glen, my wife said it was way above and beyond what she had hope and dreamed for her wedding and all of our guests commented on how amazing the venue was! All the beautiful and differently decorated spaces were very functional and made our wedding flow effortlessly. We felt so blessed getting married in a super rain storm in the beautiful dinner hall. We also loved the tree house, it was such a magical place to spend our first night together. We loved the ambient worship music, we were worshipping together all night until we fell asleep. It was super special. Also Eryka was incredible. The bridal bliss package was absolutely worth every penny. I don't know how we could have got all that done on our own without her help, especially being out of state. We also highly recommend the horse carriage. The audible gasp of all our gusts was intoxicating as my beautiful bride arrived by horse carriage looking like a storybook princess.

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.

Green Acres was an absolute dream for our wedding on May 25th! The barn is breathtaking—rustic, romantic, and full of charm. Our ceremony upstairs felt magical, and the entire day flowed seamlessly thanks to Megan, our amazing venue manager. She truly went above and beyond. The downstairs space was perfect for the cocktail hour, and the bridal suite shed out back was adorable—plenty of room for me and my seven bridesmaids. One of the biggest hits was the fire pit with the s’mores package—such a fun, cozy touch to end the night. We couldn’t have asked for a more beautiful or well-run venue.

Our daughter was married at North Star Farm. We had another daughter married the year earlier at another venue and our experience with North Star Farm saved on the stress. North Star had met with us, our daughter and her fiancé the week before. We covered what the day would look like and went over every detail. Rebecca and Scott know their stuff and we felt good that things would be covered. We got to see where to drop things off that morning and were relieved that the Day of Coordination services did all the tear down and packing. The venue did all the cleaning. I actually felt like I could enjoy saying goodbye to guests not worrying about if things were be taken down and packed up. When our other daughter got married at another venue, we spent so much of the evening and after the wedding packing and cleaning. Thank goodness we did not have to do that at North Star. My daughter utilized some of North Star's decorations. We did bring a few things, but it was a breeze to round up our things. We also saved money on the bar as we could bring in our own pop, water, seltzers, and wine to be served. There are no minimums on food or liquor making things easier and fitted for us as our group was smaller. I actually enjoyed the entire day and things went so smooth. I did ask if there was anything I could do and Rebecca said no, we have it covered. Rebecca and Scott were great to work with. This was a great experience overall. We have recommended North Star to other friends and family. We hope to return again for another wedding here.

As both a bride who just tied the knot at Next Chapter Winery, and a (very) regular patron, I cannot say enough great things about this place. The staff are some of the most caring, sweet, and down to earth people - they really treat you like family! The space is gorgeous, they are extremely accommodating and helpful, and the wine is fantastic.
