As both a bride who just tied the knot at Next Chapter Winery, and a (very) regular patron, I cannot say enough great things about this place. The staff are some of the most caring, sweet, and down to earth people - they really treat you like family! The space is gorgeous, they are extremely accommodating and helpful, and the wine is fantastic. I'm a wedding photographer, so I am EXTREMELY picky and I wouldn't have dreamed of having my wedding anywhere else - I am so thankful I trusted Jackie and her team with my big day!

Our experience with the 3Ten Event Venue was everything we hoped for. Upon arrival, everything was clean, there was a cart waiting for us by the front door to use to unload our items for the day. Tina, our day of coordinator was hands on right away helping get decor where it needed to be and helping our wedding party feel settled in with mimosas and bloody marys. She didnt make us feel like a burden being there early in the morning. I asked family to set up chairs for our ceremony. By the time they got there, Tina and staff already had it done. Everything leading up to the ceremony flowed so nicely because of the amazing staff at the 3Ten. It was obvious they enjoyed being there and truly cared about the quality of our day. We choose to have the bar open after the ceremony. We were a little hesitant about the bar rush taking too long. Nola handled guest with a smile, quickly, and was organized. Many guest were talking about how beautiful the bar was and how nice it was to have such a friendly and fun bartender. Both Nola and Tina checked in with us throughout dinner and the reception. We truly felt valued and appreciated. Were so happy we choose The 3Ten Event Venue . If we could, we'd do it all over again with them.

Jocelyn with Leo Moon is the best! During our planning process, we met with Jocelyn multiple times and she had great tools and checklists to help us plan and organize details for our wedding. She was great to bounce ideas off of and made sure we had thought of all the 'little things' to make our wedding run smoothly. Her communication was excellent and she was very knowledgeable, not to mention that she's just super fun & personable! She coordinated with all of our vendors in the lead up to the big day. Our wedding day ran so smoothly - she kept everything on schedule, assisted with set up, and made our day stress free. As the bride and groom, we didn't have to deal with a single issue the entire night. We just enjoyed celebrating with our loved ones and let Jocelyn handle the rest. We would highly recommend hiring her for your wedding!

When looking for a vendor, we wanted some place we could have our wedding outside, but have a back up if you needed it. Not only is MTS farm a beautiful place to get married, they have added features in the recent years to make you’re wedding day less stressful. They’ve a great selection of decor you can chose from, so you don’t have to rent from another vendor to decorate your wedding. We just added some fresh flowers and some other small features, but majority of the decorations for our wedding came from them. We were the first to use their bridal suite. It is gorgeous, and was so fun to get ready with all my bridesmaids all in one spot. We had the make up and hair team come out to the farm. Way less stressful than going to a salon, or getting ready at the hotel. So much room for my wedding party which included myself, matron of honor, 5 bridesmaid, 1 personal attendants, and my mother all getting ready! And now they added a grooms suite on-site as well! Michele was great to work with, always so quick to respond, and really goes out of her way to make it easy on the bride and truly wants your wedding to be all that you hoped for! Would so look into renewing of vows here when that time comes around in the future!

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

Awarded Best of Zola
This place is a showstopper!! There’s a rustic retro charm to the place partnered with a beautiful green yard, plants, and trees. Brady was so professional and prompt with responding to our inquiries and was more than happy to tell us the story of how the place came to be- so cool! He and his wife Jennifer really know how to decorate and bring this venue to life. Your guests will be talking about this wedding venue for years to come. From antique cars, handmade pergola, nature-filled pond, rustic bar, clematis flower arches, to lush trees/grass you’ll have the perfect unique setting with countless photo opportunities for you and your guests. And if you think it looks good in the daylight, you should see it lit up at night - breathtaking. I highly recommend this venue to anybody looking to make lasting memories at a gorgeous location.

  • Serves Ellendale, MN

Hello! While I have always had a passion for photography it wasn't until 2012 that I realized how much I TRULY loved it. My husband handed me a DSLR camera and I started calling on my friends to do photoshoots. Next thing I knew, Markina B. Photography was born and it's been going ever since. What I love about being a photographer is that I get to see emotions, expressions, memories and joy-fullness through my lens. I get to capture and create art out of it for my clients to hang on their walls or to give as a gift. Photography is my true passion in life and I will never not love it.

Markina is absolutely amazing in every way! My (now) husband and I met with Markina to discuss engagement and wedding photography, which is something that we were extremely anxious about because we wanted the best! After our initial conversation with Markina, we immediately knew she was the one! Markina helped us with our timeline, setting up our photo lists, and she took the most amazing pictures!! My husband and I are normally not very comfortable in front of a camera, but Markina made us feel completely at ease. She guided us through each pose and kept everything moving smoothly. We are so pleased each time we work with her. Markina’s positive nature and flexibility in her work make her the best photographer to work with. I recommend Markina B. Photography to everyone!

We originally had plans with another venue but they went up for sale and weren’t sure if they would remain a wedding venue by our date so we decided to reached out to Ahavah Cottage and they were more than amazing! With the timeframe we had left with having to switch venues, they worked with our budget and gave us all the information and vendors we needed to make our big day happen. Communication was always fast and they answered every question we had. Day of event went so smoothly, I don’t think my husband and I stressed about a thing! Staff were lovely and helpful and the venue alone is big and beautiful! Highly recommend this venue to anyone!

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.

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.

I searched around for someone who was reasonably priced and looked like they had high quality videos. Britt Nelson was the one!

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.
