Hope Glen Farm 

5.0

  • Up to 280 guests
  • Select services
  • Indoor & outdoor
  • Starts at $1,500

In 1910, President Taft signed the bill to establish Glacier National Park as the country’s 10th national park. Mr. Healy was given a plumbing contractor for the train depot here in St. Paul, where he met Samuel Bartlett, the architect of many of the railroad depots and Glacier National Park Lodge. Healy then commissioned Bartlett to renovate and enlarge the house. In 1914, the farm was sold to John Healy, the owner of Healy Plumbing and Heating Company of St. Paul. Mr. Healy’s company became closely tied to the Great Northern Railroad, as it provided the heating and plumbing for many of the train depots that were being built around the country at that time. The farm was named Hope Glen Farm, the name of John Healy’s mother’s maiden name of Hope, and the house settles in a Glen, thus Hope Glen.

“Hope Glen Farm was the perfect choice for our wedding venue. From the very first communication, the team was clear, detailed, and incredibly personable. They went above and beyond to ensure every detail of our special day was executed flawlessly. The coordination meetings leading up to the wedding, along with the helpful client portal, kept us on track and confident that everything would be perfect. On the day of, the staff was amazingly helpful and attentive - Eryka in particular was a true godsend, keeping us organized and responsive to our every need. The Bridal Bliss decor package they offer is a must, as the venue looked absolutely beautiful and pristine. We couldn't have asked for a better experience, and feel the value we received was worth every penny. Plus a wedding night in a Tree House or Corn Crib Cottage? How can you beat that?! We highly recommend Hope Glen Farm to any couple looking for a stress-free, stunning wedding celebration.”

“From the start of our day to the last light that went out, Pleasant Pastures Weddings and Events was the perfect location for us! They had so many wonderful extras and everything was included in their package price. So many other places want to add everything on, but so much was included in our day making our wedding planning so much easier. The property is stunning with so many gardens, ponds, beautiful grass pastures, animals in the background, the giant old oak tree was definitely the center point and made a beautiful statement. The tent was perfect for our warm day with the breeze flowing through. The pine harvest tables were gorgeous! We were able to use some of their decorations which saved us even more money. The yard games were super fun for our guests. The grain bin bar was so much fun! The antique horse carriage and Mahagony tree swing made for stunning pictures. The Jennings family and staff were so kind and helpful every step of the way. They even let us bring our dog on the property (on leash of course) and we were able to bring our campers to stay a couple nights. The campfire was an added fun bonus for the wedding party. So many wonderful, fun, down to earth features. You will definitely feel like you are home on their property! This was the perfect location for us and we were shocked at how much was provided for us in the price. So many personal details!”

From the moment we started planning, the staff at Madden's proved to be exceptional in every way. The first thing that struck us was their professionalism and attentiveness. The staff at Madden's were simply amazing, from the initial consultation to the day of the event. They were always available to answer our questions and address any concerns we had.

Their dedication and passion for what they do shone through, and it truly felt like they were as invested in our special day as we were. The food was amazing! Our guests are still raving about how delicious everything was. The steak, in particular, was grilled to perfection, and we received numerous compliments on its tenderness and flavor. The au gratin potatoes were a total hit, pleasing everyone, and the desserts from the in-house bakery were both mouth watering and stunning. The entire dining experience was top-notch, and it's safe to say that Madden's culinary team surpassed all expectations. Beyond the wedding day itself, our entire wedding weekend at Madden's on Gull Lake was a seamless and delightful affair. Our guests loved staying on the property and enjoyed the various amenities and activities available.

The pavilion at Madden's took our breath away - it was simply stunning and needed minimal decor to shine. Our guests were wowed by its beauty! Having Gull Lake as the backdrop for our ceremony was a dream come true, and the cherry on top was the pontoon cruise we enjoyed with our wedding party during cocktail hour. It was an unforgettable experience! We want to extend our heartfelt gratitude to the entire staff at Madden's on Gull Lake for making our wedding weekend the most memorable and magical experience of our lives. Their attention to detail, culinary expertise, and dedication to ensuring our happiness were second to none.

Our vision for FireFly began 13 years ago and we searched all around our hometown area for a barn to fit our vision. This turned out to be IT: a beautiful dairy barn built in the 1940's! We've kept its rustic and authentic vibe alive and added a lot of flair. It's a happy place to be!

“FireFly Event Barn has been doing classic barn weddings before there was a trend. You could say they quite possibly started the nostalgic movement in Northern MN. As a wedding DJ I cannot say enough good things about this venue and it’s owners. Professionally I can share a few of the things I like most about FirFly. Lindsey is the coordinator and a wedding enthusiast. To her, weddings are not just her business but there is a personal sense of enthusiasm with every new couple. The venue is always clean, stocked with the necessities and accessible. The flexibility allows every couple to put their own personal touches into every wedding. The outdoor ceremony pavilion is right out of Country Living Magazine and your photos will be astonishing. The bridal suite is a cute and private place for the bride and her girls to get ready and relax. For the guys there is another suite to tell stories and share memories with the nervous groom. If you do not want to be seen before the wedding this is how it’s done. Outside there is plenty of room for mingling, yard games and if you want to hang out with your fiancé before your vows that is also totally cool. There is plenty of room for your guests and a great list of catering solutions. On a personal level, The Nicklason’s are just good people. Family oriented, loved in the community, hard working, genuine, and believers in the true beauty of positivity. Many couples come to FireFly hoping to intertwine their families and wind up leaving with two new friends in Lindsey and Brent. One of my favorite venues and I’m always happy and excited to be there whenever possible. Ryan Burns Spectrum Entertainment”

“Adler Ranch is a gorgeous place! Kurt and Marlys are extremely helpful and put a lot of CARE in keeping their venue beautiful. As a wedding planner they were great to work with- on top of keeping space clean, having tools available, and helping make sure the day run smoothly. They also were both on site during the wedding day for problem solving and helping tear down. As the venue, the suites are fun and roomy. There are a lot of cute places for gorgeous nature photos. I also love their set up for s’mores and other snacks. I learned a tip from them for the chocolate!”
