Hope Glen Farm 

5.0

  • Up to 280 guests
  • Select services
  • Indoor & outdoor
  • Starts at $1,500

In 1910, President Taft signed the bill to establish Glacier National Park as the country’s 10th national park. Mr. Healy was given a plumbing contractor for the train depot here in St. Paul, where he met Samuel Bartlett, the architect of many of the railroad depots and Glacier National Park Lodge. Healy then commissioned Bartlett to renovate and enlarge the house. In 1914, the farm was sold to John Healy, the owner of Healy Plumbing and Heating Company of St. Paul. Mr. Healy’s company became closely tied to the Great Northern Railroad, as it provided the heating and plumbing for many of the train depots that were being built around the country at that time. The farm was named Hope Glen Farm, the name of John Healy’s mother’s maiden name of Hope, and the house settles in a Glen, thus Hope Glen.

Hope Glen Farm was the perfect choice for our wedding venue. From the very first communication, the team was clear, detailed, and incredibly personable. They went above and beyond to ensure every detail of our special day was executed flawlessly. The coordination meetings leading up to the wedding, along with the helpful client portal, kept us on track and confident that everything would be perfect. On the day of, the staff was amazingly helpful and attentive - Eryka in particular was a true godsend, keeping us organized and responsive to our every need. The Bridal Bliss decor package they offer is a must, as the venue looked absolutely beautiful and pristine. We couldn't have asked for a better experience, and feel the value we received was worth every penny. Plus a wedding night in a Tree House or Corn Crib Cottage? How can you beat that?! We highly recommend Hope Glen Farm to any couple looking for a stress-free, stunning wedding celebration.

We got married 8/3 and i will say the Grands is truly a great place to have your wedding. They take so much stress and work off of wedding planning and make everything extremely easy. From our first meeting we knew we were going to get married here. They help with a lot of vendors such as DJ, Shuttle, candles for centerpieces and all decorations, Day of coordination, food, dessert, late night snacks, and so much more that I know I am missing! They break down the prices completely and we didn’t feel like anything extra was added to our final bill. Weeks before the wedding we met with Joe and Larry to help with the day of coordination and the entertainment piece of coordinating. This helped with giving the DJ an idea of what we wanted for our entertainment and helped our day flow so much easier. The day of our wedding could not have been more great. We got married on the lodge side and used the bridal suite to get ready. It truly is such a beautiful venue that needs little decorations. The staff and Joe were so helpful throughout the day and night to make the day go smoothly and kept open communication between my husband and I. We had DJ Alli and unfortunately it was her last wedding which I think was meant to be because she truly did such an amazing job keeping everyone on the dance floor and taking requests. Truthfully our wedding could not have been more perfect and we have no regrets choosing this venue

Rolling Ridge was everything we wanted in a venue! When we first saw the venue we knew it was perfect for our day because there are many wonderful options to have your ceremony, dinner and dance. We knew no matter what that if Option A (having ceremony/dance outside) didn't work out due to weather, then we were perfectly fine with Option B which would be moving everything in doors because everywhere has great ambiance which put us at ease during the planning months. From day one they were so accommodating and truly let your visions come to life. They also were so organized and provided the best planning tools so you felt like you were always on track and they helped you think of all the little details it takes to hosting a wedding. I never felt stressed or overwhelmed when working with Rolling Ridge. All of our guests were blown away by the beauty of this venue and we can't recommend them enough to any future couples.

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!

My partner and I recently had our wedding at Madden's on Gull Lake, and we cannot stop raving about what an incredible experience it was. From the moment we started planning, the staff at Madden's proved to be exceptional in every way. The first thing that struck us was their professionalism and attentiveness. The staff at Madden's were simply amazing, from the initial consultation to the day of the event. They were always available to answer our questions and address any concerns we had.

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. Our guests loved staying on the property and enjoyed the various amenities and activities available. Whether it was relaxing by the lake or exploring the beautiful surroundings, or heading to the pub for live music, Madden's offered a picturesque backdrop for an unforgettable celebration. 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. If you're looking for a dream wedding destination with exceptional staff, mouthwatering food, and breathtaking surroundings, Madden's on Gull Lake is the perfect choice.

The Emerald Cottage on Hidden Lane was an exceptional venue. I used the space for a small gathering and the venue managers were communicative and friendly throughout the entire planning process, and their attention to detail was remarkable. The venue itself was clean, comfortable, and had a lovely pine interior that created a warm ambiance. They went above and beyond to support our group, even offering to help us load and unload our decor. This space is stunning for a wedding but would also make a great space for a rehearsal dinner, bridal shower, family get together or any other intimate group gathering.

The bridal suite was large and functional. The guys also had their own getting-ready area on the second level of the grain bin, which was such a cool feature. 10/10!
