About this venue
With its varied perennials and annuals, Longfellow Gardens provides a picturesque backdrop for weddings and other ceremonies. The formal garden, featuring a pergola, graces the top of the land bridge, providing a stunning view of the downtown skyline. A gentle slope of prairie flowers and grasses provides a transition between the ”wild” creek’s edge and the land bridge’s sedated beauty. For questions and more information on the venue and it's availability, please call the Minneapolis Park & Recreation Board's customer service number and ask to speak with Evan VanderZiel in the permits department. Please also check out our website for the outdoor ceremony application and more pictures of the venue!
