Venue Setting
Original, eclectic, spectacular. The striking Mill City Museum was built on the banks of the Mississippi River, amid the ruins of the old Washburn A Flour Mill, a National Historic Landmark. In 2001, major renovations brought the 120-year old building into the 21st century.

Weathered masonry walls frame a delightfully unpretentious 100 x 100 foot outdoor courtyard, with other spaces in the building boasting a similarly industrial feel, allowing room for up to 1000 guests.

Massive warehouse spaces, cool science museums, historic houses and boutique hotels fill the streets of Minneapolis, and we’ve been on the hunt to find the best of the best that also double as wedding venues. If your vibe is simple and timeless, we’ve got a beach club for that. If you’re more of the loft venue type, we’ve got plenty of those too.
If you’re a Twin Cities local, we’re pretty sure there are at least three venues on this list you haven’t heard of yet. If you’re planning a destination wedding to the area, we’ve got you covered too. After all, there are countless microbreweries and something like 10,000 lakes to explore nearby. What better way to spend a celebratory weekend than splitting your time between drinking holes and swimming holes while also throwing your most unforgettable party yet.

They say youth is a gift of nature, but age is a work of art. There's something timeless and effortlessly romantic about a venue with history in it’s bones. Edges worn and frayed from effervescent laughter and floors weathered from dancing shoes and splashes of champagne. Much like life and most relationships, it's the imperfections that make it oh so perfect. Here’s a list of 22 historic, time worn venues, and like a fine wine, they’ve only gotten better with time.

Transformation. These venues are modern destinations with architectural history. What happens when you remodel a former hospital, a car factory, a chapel or a cotton warehouse? A destination that blends the old with the new and a space that brings the past into the future. This past and future fusion brings the charm to these 20 venues, adding a touch of history to your next event. These venues may have been brought into the 21st Century but their roots are what make them magical.
