Enjoy the scenic 6-mile drive from SW Rochester on paved roads to a magical place nestled in the rolling hillsides of southeast Minnesota. We’ve owned and operated our family perennial farm with sprawling gardens which has hosted hundreds of weddings for over 25 years. Our new wedding & events facility is a heated & cooled vintage, European-style carriage house to match our existing civil war era (1858!) brick house. The Carriage House can accommodate 150 guests in the warm months and 100 in the winter. The space flows into the gardens and expansive patio area for additional seating. Now booking for year-round events! We do still have room for a 2024 wedding! Now booking 2025.

Our outdoor wedding ceremony was in early September; a gorgeous 70 day! The flowers in the front garden were in full bloom. Vibrant purples, pinks, yellows, greens, white made for ZERO decoration and savings galore! Almost 6 years later, my guests still tell me that my wedding was the most fun and relaxing one they'd ever been to. I'm so thankful for Garten Marketplatz and the relaxing atmosphere. I wouldn't have changed a single thing about my perfect day.

Maidenwood 

5.0

Stockholm, WI
  • Up to 200 guests
  • Select services
  • Indoor & outdoor
  • Starts at $5,995

Welcome to Maidenwood! Nestled in the wooded bluffs between Maiden Rock and Stockholm, Wisconsin, Maidenwood is a wedding and event center that sits on a 40 acre nature reserve overlooking Lake Pepin of the Mississippi River. Just one hour from the Twin Cities, Rochester, and Eau Claire, Maidenwood is an idyllic setting for your event. With stunning views of woodland forests, wildflower meadows, bluffs and ridges, Maidenwood offers exclusive amenities for up to 200 guests and the freedom to roam throughout the property to capture the perfect photos for your big day.

Maidenwood was the absolute BEST venue we could have ever dreamed of for our wedding. Where to even begin!? Steve, Jana, and the rest of the crew are just the nicest people you will ever meet, and they made the entire process so easy from the first info call to the last song. We felt assured we were in good hands the entire time, and the confidence continued throughout the day as they seamlessly followed the timeline and made sure everything was exactly what we had planned. In addition to the amazing people, the property and buildings are truly breathtaking. It’s the perfect blend of outdoorsy, elegant, adventurous, modern, and cozy. It’s clear how much thought and effort they have put in to already create an amazing backdrop that we didn’t feel stressed with decorating at all. Every space speaks for itself and emphasizes the beautiful nature that is all around. With that, we really appreciated the freedom to make the spaces our own and include unique elements that felt true to who we are as a couple. We got to be creative with vendors, photo spots, ceremony locations, getting ready, and other optional amenities that contributed to it feeling like our own property for the day! We also highly recommend Steve’s business Trustworthy Music for a DJ. Steve added so much energy and kept our guests on the dance floor the entire time. We also highly recommend Jana for a day of coordinator. She is so knowledgeable, a blast to work with, and went above and beyond checking on us and our guests throughout the wedding. We truly could go on and on about how grateful we are to have found Maidenwood for our day (and have been for the past 3 weeks!). Thank you for everything!! - Lauren & Kevin

When we began looking for possible wedding venues, we came across the Outback and was the best decision we could have made. The venue location sits beautifully in the bluffs and is isolated enough that we felt like our wedding was ours and everything we needed was either provided to us by Holly or was easy to find. Our guests stayed in LaCrosse and it was easy for us to get transportation to and from the venue. One of the biggest pluses was having the apartments available to us. We were able to arrive and stay at the venue the entire weekend. Which made everything less stressful for us. Cannot recommend this venue more.
