Their dedication and passion for what they do shone through, and it truly felt like they were as invested in our special day as we were. The food was amazing! Our guests are still raving about how delicious everything was. The steak, in particular, was grilled to perfection, and we received numerous compliments on its tenderness and flavor. The au gratin potatoes were a total hit, pleasing everyone, and the desserts from the in-house bakery were both mouth watering and stunning. The entire dining experience was top-notch, and it's safe to say that Madden's culinary team surpassed all expectations. Beyond the wedding day itself, our entire wedding weekend at Madden's on Gull Lake was a seamless and delightful affair.

The pavilion at Madden's took our breath away - it was simply stunning and needed minimal decor to shine. Our guests were wowed by its beauty! Having Gull Lake as the backdrop for our ceremony was a dream come true, and the cherry on top was the pontoon cruise we enjoyed with our wedding party during cocktail hour. It was an unforgettable experience! We want to extend our heartfelt gratitude to the entire staff at Madden's on Gull Lake for making our wedding weekend the most memorable and magical experience of our lives. Their attention to detail, culinary expertise, and dedication to ensuring our happiness were second to none.

FireFly Event Barn 

5.0

Nevis, MN
  • Up to 299 guests
  • Select services
  • Indoor & outdoor
  • Starts at $6,000

Our vision for FireFly began 13 years ago and we searched all around our hometown area for a barn to fit our vision. This turned out to be IT: a beautiful dairy barn built in the 1940's! We've kept its rustic and authentic vibe alive and added a lot of flair. It's a happy place to be!

The Firefly is such a quaint, clean, beautiful wedding venue! The bright white walls and windows inside the venue photograph so well. The venue sits on an amazing piece of land with rolling hills and wildflower fields - a photographer’s dream!! Not only is the venue stunning, but the owners are so kind, helpful, and welcoming! I would highly recommend this venue to any of my wedding couples.

Awarded Best of Zola
Adler Ranch is a gorgeous place! Kurt and Marlys are extremely helpful and put a lot of CARE in keeping their venue beautiful. As a wedding planner they were great to work with- on top of keeping space clean, having tools available, and helping make sure the day run smoothly. They also were both on site during the wedding day for problem solving and helping tear down. As the venue, the suites are fun and roomy. There are a lot of cute places for gorgeous nature photos. I also love their set up for s’mores and other snacks. I learned a tip from them for the chocolate!
