“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”
