What is a Minne Wedding?

The Original Minnesota Micro Wedding

Minne Weddings are the hottest new way to tie the knot and take a fraction of the time and investment of a traditional wedding. Round up a group of your closest family and friends for a fun-sized celebration at one of Minnesota’s coolest spaces. All of the essentials are included, thoughtfully designed, and effortlessly executed.

It’s not mini, it’s Minne.

Every Minne Wedding™ experience includes…

Planning + Design

All planning and design is handled by experienced pros so you can sit back, relax, and enjoy your wedding day. Since everything is taken care of for you, you don’t have to spend one moment thinking about logistics or the look of your Minne Wedding™. How easy is that?

Venue + Rentals

The venue and all furnishings are included — chairs, tables, lounge, bar, china, glassware — the works!

Photography + Videography

Our photographer and videographer team will capture every moment so Uncle Bob can put his phone away and be present. You will receive high-resolution edited images from the day and a full ceremony film.

Floral + Decor

A stylish ceremony installation will be the “wow” piece of your Minne Wedding™ and accented with other imaginative decor. Personal flowers for the couple are also included.

Cake + Champagne

After the “I dos” it is time to celebrate with cake and champagne! After all, a party without cake is just a meeting. There are five cake flavors to choose from.

Custom Designed Digital Invitation

How else you going to let people know about your Minne Wedding™?

Officiant + Music

Our professional officiant will work with you directly to personalize your ceremony while we handle the music.

Why Minne Weddings?

Are you a Minne Wedding™ couple?

We hope so! Let’s talk about who our couples are:

They are genuine. They don’t want the same kind of wedding as everyone else (or go to Vegas or the courthouse). Our couples know there is a balance between the doing “All The Things” and eloping.

They don’t want stress. Our couples are interested in an easy wedding experience. They are already busy enough, and the thought of having to make endless decisions and spend countless hours talking about their wedding is not on their “to do” list.

They value people over things. Spending time with family and friends is their top priority.

They are smart with their money. When they are not saving for their dream home, they spend their money on amazing trips, brunch with friends, and donating to causes close to their hearts.

They love each other and the planet. By splitting the wedding costs with other couples, they help minimize waste of materials, resources, and time. Mother Earth appreciates them.

They will settle for only the best. They know that Minne Weddings only works with a rock star team of Minnesota’s very best, giving them top-notch design and experience.

They love where they live. Our couples couldn’t be more proud to be a part of this community, and are committed to embracing what a wedding in Minnesota has to offer — beautiful and unique spaces with Midwestern charm.
