Lizzie and Logan are an absolute dream to work with! We took our engagement pictures and wedding pictures with LM photography and could not love our pictures more if we tried! They are so easy and fun to work with. They truly take in to account everything that you want out of your pictures and DELIVER! We had so much fun working with Lizzie and Logan - even my husband (who isn’t a pictures kind of guy) said he had an absolute blast with them. On top of making the process a breeze, we got our sneak peaks the MORNING AFTER our wedding!! To say they go out of their way for you and your pictures is an understatement - I wish I could rate them higher than 5 stars, they deserve it!

LoveLee Occasions is a wedding and event planning business that has grown from the love + passion for all celebrations; big or small. Why not share this passion with those who need an extra hand, not sure where to start, or just overwhelmed by it all? There is just something about the chaos of behind-the-scenes that we love and being able to do that for all humans, makes our days go by fast and end our nights with smiles + appreciation.

Christina is a phenomenal wedding coordinator who always makes you feel like she has your back. On wedding day, she made sure to handle all of the chaos behind the scenes (I later found out she made several saves without me knowing!), all so that I could be present and enjoy the day. In the planning process, she worked to understand our vision for how we wanted the day to look/feel and she gave great recommendations. This is 100% her dream job and it shows – time and time again she went the extra mile for us! For example, we told her a few months before our wedding that we were considering a videographer, and she found several options for us within budget. When we told her we didn’t know what we wanted to do for music, and she provided us with several quotes for live music. In our month-before planning meeting she brought up a ton of questions that we had not thought of – and had all the solutions for us on deck! Just having a second eye on everything was well worth it – let alone the fact that she and her sister stayed until the very end of the night to make sure everything was put away securely. All in all, I can’t recommend LoveLee Occasions enough. Our day would not have come together like it did without her help!

Awarded Best of Zola
We were married at NCW back in 2017 and our friends and family still talk about how great our wedding and reception were. We toured/spoke with nearly 15 venues from Mankato to the Metro. So many required you to use all of their vendors, had strict rules about what you could and couldn't do, or required a lot of work and decor to create a beautiful space. The other venues made us feel like we'd have a cookie cutter wedding with no option to make it our own. Then we found Next Chapter! It's s a gorgeous venue, the staff are wonderful, and we were able to have the wedding and reception that we wanted.

A little while ago I reached out to The 3 Ten Event Venue to host my parents' 50th Wedding Anniversary. From that moment on it was an amazing experience! The First 10: Communication. I had a lot of questions about the space, how things would work (this was coming out of a lot of unknowns from the Covid restrictions and such). Every question was answered promptly with a wealth of information. It truly made me feel at ease and knew that this would be a good experience. As we progressed with the planning and details the coordinators really helped. I thought I was pretty savvy with planning and ideas, but their suggestions and guidance really brought it all together. The Second 10: The Space. For our size of group, the upstairs was a perfect spot. I love historic buildings and the way they designed the space really celebrates the history, but also incorporates modern amenities that bring a fresh feel. It was great for our anniversary party, but I could see hosting pretty much any occasion there. The Third 10: Service. Echoing the great communication I mentioned earlier, the service seamlessly took up the reins when our event began. All the details were on point. Staff was all very professional and attentive. I know that The 3 Ten hosts a lot of weddings and that really showed with this 50th Wedding Anniversary - it all came together in a way that really celebrated their wedding. While most of us at the event were not there when they were married 50 years ago, we all left with feeling closer to it than before, a new of sense appreciation and celebrating that day. It was just touches that they did that I didn't expect and it was executed beautifully.

Our ol' 10 acre charm farm dates back to before MN was a state in the abstract. It's been in Brady’s family since the summer of '69 and we plan to keep it that way for generations to come. The original family that homesteaded the property came from Czechoslovakia. They built the hand-hewn log cabin on a boulder foundation and owned it for 112 years. Brady grew up in the home since '87 which has transformed over time into the gem that we have today. We kickstarted our journey at GarageTown LLC with our wedding in August, 2021. We look forward to creating more memories and sharing our historic and creative property with you! Forever Grateful, Brady & Jenni

  • Serves Albert Lea, MN

In 2013, 8-year wedding veteran Amy McCord Jones realizes she wouldn't be able to afford to hire her own floral services if she was a bride. Then, Amy discovers that there is basically zero help available for DIY brides. No flower recipes. No instructions. No access to florist-grade blooms. Rude. So she launches Flower Moxie! Flower Moxie remains a humble, tucked-away small business out of Oklahoma City. We don’t zoom around on scooters in some fancy high-rise. We stock an average kitchen with canned wine and Aldi chips and listen to true crime podcasts while photographing curvy ranunculus. Join us. There’s cake, hugs, and acceptance here.

My husband and I were unsure if we were going to hire a videographer, and were leaning towards not doing it because of costs. I searched around for someone who was reasonably priced and looked like they had high quality videos. Britt Nelson was the one! We are so glad we went with videography, and the videos have been so much fun to watch and share with friends and family. Britt was incredibly responsive, easygoing, and collaborative. He was easy to work with and made the process simple and fun. The wedding videos are high quality and he had multiple camera filming everything. I also love that we get the raw footage for no addition charge! Definitley recommend Britt if you are on the fence about getting videography for your wedding.

Milk showed up the day of the wedding well in advance to get everything set up and kept the day flowing smooth, adapted and added timely sound bites (that weren't pre-planned), and read the room each step of the way. He stayed true to our requests but has the ability to take on all of the music if you'd rather not think about it.

We were thrilled with the Bluewater Kings Band for our wedding! Owen was fantastic to work with - he was prompt, organized, and enthusiastic in his communication. We splurged on adding a sax player and were so glad we did - it really brought an extra layer of talent and fun. The band absolutely nailed our preferred musical vibe. As soon as the music started, the dance floor filled up and stayed packed all night long! The set list matched our taste perfectly. The band brought a highly professional yet fun energy that kept the party going. Their musicianship was top-notch and their song selection had something for all our guests to enjoy. We felt like royalty celebrating with the Bluewater Kings Band behind us - choosing them was one of the best decisions we made for our big day!
