“Red Oak Valley was the absolute most amazing experience for my wedding. Dana is the most helpful coordinator & the easiest person to work with. She did the utmost to make sure it was the smoothest planning ever! The staff that work alongside her are just as awesome. The day of coordinator I had, Christina, was incredible. So helpful, kind, and supported me every step of the way. I can’t recommend this place enough. If you are looking, please reach out to them!”

“My wife and I cannot recommend Laumeier enough as an ideal wedding venue. We wanted somewhere that granted us the opportunity for an outdoor ceremony in a comfortable, beautiful and stimulating setting, while also having space for an indoor reception with outdoor elements (i.e. patio area, cocktail hour, fresh air mid-reception, etc.). Laumeier is exactly that. With our ceremony in the garden area in the front of the park, our guests enjoyed the shade provided by the trees and the open breeze to boot. They had a blast walking the grounds and admiring the sculptures before and after the ceremony. Being a special place for my now wife during her childhood, it was a true joy bringing things full circle at the park. Reception wise, the Aronson Center was absolutely ideal for our 105 person wedding. With the high ceilings and the huge windows, the space gives a feeling of airy openness, while remining an intimate space to share all of those precious ceremonial moments. The Aronson allowed plenty of personal space for each table as they enjoyed their dinner, drinks, desserts, and conversation, while leaving ample room for the dance floor that was utilized until the very end of the night. The cubby space in the entry way gave us the chance to decorate with many of our personal keepsakes that made the entire environment feel uniquely ours, and Laumeier granted us the autonomy to bring that vision to life as desired. And if the wonder and beauty of the park and Aronson were not enough, the people alone that helped make our wedding possible make this place worth your consideration. Sara Eaton and the folks who make up the rest of the events team are top notch humans. Sara was patient, kind, and clear throughout all communication in each phase of our wedding planning, and was onsite throughout their entire day of. Sara's presence is one that instills a sense of calm and confidence during a process that inevitably comes with nerves and some anxiousness. Marrying my wife would have been a joy anywhere, but I truly do not think the entirety of the day, nor the precious little moments that unfold during such a momentous occasion, would have been the same if not for Laumeier Sculpture Park, The Aronson Center, or Sara Eaton and the rest of the events team. We recommend this place to the absolute fullest extent. -Jimmie and Auri”
