I photographed my first wedding at the Jerome last winter. It was such a unique space! I'd love to return!! The exposed brick and black accents were great inside the venue. I also thought the big windows at the front of the building gave good opportunities to get some indoor, natural light photos in the cold winter. The wedding party used an airbnb in town that was perfect for getting ready. I love when small businesses work together like that for a couple!

I have been part of two events at Pique Travel, one was a sweet wedding and the other was a lively business gathering. The space has such a comfortable feel and an easy sense of versatility. It is beautiful with the glowing warmth of sunlight, wood, and hearth; the coziness and comfort is perfect...and don't forget the fun on site furnishings! ! The design of the space is so welcoming as is the management! The coordinator, Dana, has not only a keen attention to details and obvious experience with planning she is also genuinely friendly and it was a joy to collaborate with her for the perfect event.

Goodtree Farmstead gave us the most beautiful wedding. The venue was wonderful and they were so responsive and accommodating in the planning process. It’s the perfect location for a ceremony and reception, with plenty of space for guests to play, eat, and roam around throughout the day. The farm at night, with all the lights, created a great atmosphere for drinks and dancing. The backdrop of the trees, and the barn, and water made beautiful wedding pictures. I cannot recommend this venue and team enough for your event!

Hollywood Theater 
Minneapolis, MN
  • Up to 260 guests

The Hollywood Theater is an iconic Art Deco landmark in Northeast Minneapolis. When it opened in 1936, the theater was described as “the incomparable showcase of the Northwest’’. After years of decline, the theater closed in 1987 and was purchased by the city of Minneapolis. Twenty-five years of inaction and neglect followed until 2014 when the National Park Service recognized the building’s historical significance and listed it on the National Register of Historic Places. In 2015 the theater was sold to Northeast-resident and entrepreneur Andrew Volna, who saved the building and restored its original Art Deco splendor. Today it is ready to host your event.
