Our new wedding & events facility is a heated & cooled vintage, European-style carriage house to match our existing civil war era (1858!) brick house. The Carriage House can accommodate 150 guests in the warm months and 100 in the winter. The space flows into the gardens and expansive patio area for additional seating. Now booking for year-round events! We do still have room for a 2024 wedding! Now booking 2025.

Our outdoor wedding ceremony was in early September; a gorgeous 70 day! The flowers in the front garden were in full bloom. Vibrant purples, pinks, yellows, greens, white made for ZERO decoration and savings galore! Almost 6 years later, my guests still tell me that my wedding was the most fun and relaxing one they'd ever been to. I'm so thankful for Garten Marketplatz and the relaxing atmosphere. I wouldn't have changed a single thing about my perfect day.

For eight years I have had a passion for photography, and capturing moments that tell a story.  I love to bring an element of fun to the table during your shoot and build new, trusting, friendships.  While photography is my passion, I also share a lifelong career in nursing. I hold a diploma in Fine Arts Photography, as well as a Master's Degree in Nursing. I love the smell of the air on a summer morning, the silence of the city when it snows, my boyfriend of seven years, Daniel, and the beautiful life we have made together including our 2 dogs and 2 cats.

Emma is hands down one of my favorite photographers. She has an incredible vision but will always utilize the clients preferences or requests. If you don’t know what you’re looking for, she will give you personal opinions, experience and guide in the way she envisions for you/as a couple/or family. I have already done 3 photo shoots with her and I have never been or will ever be disappointed by her work! She’s so affordable for truly an amazing investment. My fiancé and I have already established that we have found our forever photographer, especially for our future wedding and when we’re ready for family photos. We recently did our engagement photos and about 4 hours after we left our shoot, she had already uploaded and given us access to a dozen photos. The sneak peak preview was everything and is always appreciated to give you that excitement and something to work with while waiting for her to finish editing all photos. The confidence, pride and awe I have from our photos can not fully be defined by words - the work she does speaks for itself. HIRE HER IMMEDIATELY!!!!! You’d regret not using her as your photographer.

To learn more, fill out this form:

When we began looking for possible wedding venues, we came across the Outback and was the best decision we could have made. The venue location sits beautifully in the bluffs and is isolated enough that we felt like our wedding was ours and everything we needed was either provided to us by Holly or was easy to find. Our guests stayed in LaCrosse and it was easy for us to get transportation to and from the venue. One of the biggest pluses was having the apartments available to us. We were able to arrive and stay at the venue the entire weekend. Which made everything less stressful for us. Cannot recommend this venue more.

When the pandemic hit, and we had to reschedule our wedding, they allowed us to change our date and even worked with me to redesign our flowers as we changed the season our wedding would be in. They helped take our ideas and visions and turn them into the most beautiful florals. I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for a florist, as they are so talented and creative and so easy to work with.

I blend my experience as a sports, event, and landscape photographer to cultivate stunning wedding photographs that perfectly capture the beauty and joy of your wedding day. After over a decade as a photographer who specialized in sports, events, and landscapes, I opened my business to cover weddings after becoming frustrated with the pricing plans of photographers who charged luxury rates for plans that barely covered our ceremony and dinner. I didn't have to be that way. So I embarked on using my knowledge and experience as a photographer to allow anyone access to high quality photography of their wedding from morning to night.

I have been a photographer for 8 years. Throughout my time as a photographer I’ve captured clothing, models, and memories. I shifted from corporate shootings to families and weddings because it gave me this warm fuzzy feeling when I edited my couples and families photos. Don’t be afraid to reach out to me and ask about my photography style, my editing style, or my favorite restaurant! I highly recommend scheduling a free consulting session!

Grace was a pleasure to work with during the wedding planning process. She was timely in her responses and upfront with pricing. On the day of the wedding, it felt like we were herding cats, but she remained professional and efficient. Even though we were running behind schedule with getting dressed, she managed to squeeze in a few dress shots and some first look photos. Grace remained patient even as some of our friends and family showed up late for photos! As we moved between locations, she made sure I was holding my dress in a way so that I wouldn’t fall on my face. She also helped my MOH bustle my dress after the ceremony (again, so I wouldn’t fall on my face). Grace was always cognizant of the lighting on location, and how it would affect photos. Her assistant, Joey, was lovely and accommodating as well. All in all, a wonderful experience!

Hi, there! I am Allie, an internationally published fine art photographer. What's unique to my craft is the focus on small details to tell the complete story of your love. From your candid laughs together to the way your grandmother's eyes well with tears when she sees you walk down the aisle - no detail is too small. We’ve had so many sweet couples from around the world trust us - from our own backyard in MN to the Coasts & even Internationally. I've had the honor of being nominated as the Top 3 Photographers in MN & the experience of photographing over 150 weddings. But each feels completely unique & gives me the joy of butterflies

First, we were immediately drawn to Allie’s timeless, bright, and airy photography style. From the moment that we spoke with Allie during our phone consultation, we felt very comfortable with her and knew she would be the perfect fit as our wedding photographer! Allie photographed our engagement session in downtown Stillwater, a boudoir session (Allie also designed a keepsake boudoir book that I gave to my husband as his wedding gift), and our wedding day. Throughout all of the sessions, Allie was kind, warm, patient, gave us helpful prompts/poses, and guided us every step of the way! Whenever I had questions regarding photography, Allie was very responsive and provided wonderful customer service. She also helped us to create a detailed photography timeline and shot list for the wedding day. On the wedding day, Allie and her second shooter were very professional, prepared, and helped to keep everyone on track, including the bridal party and our families. After the wedding, we received way more photos than we were expecting in our online gallery, which were beautifully edited with her special touch. Allie exceeded our expectations and went above and beyond in all areas. We’ll cherish our photos for years to come and highly recommend Alexandra Robyn Photo & Design!

Hi, I’m Isaac. In my world, light is everything. The cool ambient hues at dawn, hinting at what the day may bring. Golden sun rays catching particles through a tree as friends gathers to celebrate. A Cotton candy sunset peppered by patio string-lights as a DJ plays my favorite song. We all have timeless memories logged in our minds. For me, they are based in a language of light. As a wedding photographer, this deep connection to special lighting helps me produce dynamic visual stories of romance, personality and beauty.

We loved Isaac and his wife, Jing, who photographed our wedding earlier this month. Isaac was super calm and collected and on top of everything. His photography style was perfect for us. He already delivered about half of our retouched photos a week after the wedding which was insane and I love every single one. He was flexible with the 5 flower girls we had in and out of pictures and the multiple areas on our venue property. Overall an amazing experience and I recommend his work to anyone and everyone looking. He was very considerate when I first reached out about his work and wanted to use him and was very mindful of his travel fees to fit in our budget.

We met with them in-person twice for consultations and felt so comfortable talking with them and sharing our experiences as fellow wedding-industry workers. The rate at which we received our photos after our engagement shoot and our wedding was perfect! They sent a few samples that showed the quality and attention to detail, and the remaining complete albums were sent within a week! So fast but so much attention to detail and great editing. We also loved their blog posts as a way to share photos with friends and family and we enjoyed browsing other couples' albums as well!

Working with Liv was an absolute dream. We Reverie & Rose because we wanted to shop sustainably for our day. Ironically, I found her business because she was also my bridal stylist when I was wedding dress shopping. She is so incredibly knowledgeable of all things wedding. I consider myself to be a VERY anxious bride, and Liv did a fantastic job of helping me figure out exactly what I wanted. She sent us mood boards based on my vision, and zoom called us to talk through details before we paid for anything. The bouquets and boutonnières that we got were awesome. I don’t know how but the roses even felt real to the touch. Even the bees were confused and kept trying to land on our bouquets throughout the day lol! Now I have my bouquet on my dining room table, and every day when I see it, I am reminded of our wedding. I am so glad that we chose silk flowers, and I would recommend Reverie & Rose to every bride. Thank you Liv!

I looked at SO MANY wedding videos and they were all so similar and cookie cutter. They were lacking something but I couldn’t put my finger on it. THEN I FOUND JIMMY SHIN. I watched his videos and found myself sobbing at strangers videos! He made me feel like I knew the bride and groom after just 7 minutes. He's so good! Jimmy will take your wedding video and turn it into the most beautiful story. The video he made for us just so beautifully captured my husband and I's day! It's a video i'll cherish for the rest of my life. I can't wait for our kids to be able to watch it. UGH, seriously hire this man and you won't regret it. Best wedding money we spent. https://www.youtube.com/watch?viVAKZzODr6E

Ariel was the absolute BEST of the BEST to work with for our wedding!!! We spend endless times meeting with someone who felt like the right fit and upon finding Ariel she was so wonderful, punctual and bubbly to work with! We had her also take our engagement photos as her packages fit tailored to what our needs and wants were. When she had done her photos for the wedding from beginning to end was amazing attention to detail. She made it feel stress free and worked so hard to capture the magic of our day. When we received our photos it was breathtaking and we feel so happy to have these pictures for a lifetime. We look forward to using her in the future & if your looking for a photographer look no further!!! She captures pure magic. Thank you Ariel!!!!!
