    The Cottage Farmhouse was the perfect venue for our wedding. From the very beginning, the team was accessible, kind, professional, and genuinely cared about making our day special. They checked in with us consistently throughout the planning process to ensure they knew our vision and tailored every detail to our needs. The venue itself was spacious and welcoming, with every space being the perfect size to accommodate our large wedding party. We felt so at ease working with this team, and they were always available to provide helpful guidance. This truly is the best wedding venue we could have chosen, and we are so grateful for the role they played in making our wedding day absolutely perfect.

    As an Pastor/officiant with 8 years of experience doing weddings, I have had the pleasure of conducting ceremonies in various venues all around the state of MN but also the country as well, but this particular wedding venue truly stands out. From the moment I arrived, the staffs/owners professionalism and attention to detail were immediately apparent. The location is PERFECT, offering a seamless blend of modernism and farmhouse. Its no wonder they consistently have won awards for best barn venue in MN. What impressed me most was the hospitality extended to everyone involved. The staff went out of their way to ensure that their commitment to excellence was evident in every aspect. Namely, they include your very own Day-of-Wedding Coordinator in the cost of the venue. Which saves couples hundreds, if not thousands - and doesn't sacrifice quality. Their coordinators know their stuff! The overall experience was outstanding, and I would highly recommend this venue to any couple looking for a place that goes above and beyond. As an officiant, I intimately understand how stressful these life-changing events can be - and having a venue that HAS YOU is well worth much more than The Cottage Farmhouse costs. Well done!

    I absolutely loved my experience with The Cottage Farmhouse. Every detail has been so lovingly thought out & Kim and Bailey (the owners) are incredible people. You would be so, so lucky to have your wedding at their property!
