This stunning and elegant venue is surrounded with some of the most picturesque country views of Minnesota! With trees, rolling hills and nature prairies around the structure, it is a gorgeous escape for your guests .

There are two glass structures, which allow the event flow to start at the ceremony Atrium, followed by Cocktail Hour  with guests sprinkling outside and coming into the Dining Atrium to celebrate the Dinner and reception. You can then use the Ceremony atrium again for the Dance and party!

Ceremony Atrium

Indoor Elegance meets the Outdoor 

Woodland Glasshaus Ceremony atrium has floor-to-ceiling glass walls, ao you can enjoy panoramic views of the pretty woodland around while saying your vows in a gorgeous, open space. The natural light fills the space creating a bright and dreamy atmosphere for your ceremony.

Dining Atrium

The Dining Atrium is the second glass structure specially planned for dining and reception. The dining space is perfect for hosting an elegant dinner and toasts, it truly allows guests to feel connected to the beauty of the outdoors while enjoying the indoor elegance.

Half Wall Outdoor Patio

One of my favorite spaces, and it functions as a great neutral backdrop for photos (specially if the day is a hot one)

The getaway room

The venue counts with a little space to hide before the ceremony. Is very cute and stylish!

Tips for Couples Getting Married at Woodland Glasshaus

These tips will help you make the most of your day at Woodland Glasshaus.

• Consider the heat:  While the venue does have air conditioning, the nature of the glass structure will be very warm in the middle of the day, so I recommend  consider this for timing specially for older  family or guests .
• Get ready offsite: I would recommend to get ready offsite if possible for finding a more spacious and covered space for makeup and other preparations.
• Later ceremony in the summer:  For the summer, I would recommend a later ceremony for this venue so the venue has cooled down
• Think about guest flow: Take advantage of the separate atrium spaces for your ceremony and reception to help guests move and enjoy the space.
• Photos at golden hour: A short walk to the riverwalk or bridge is perfect. You’ll get beautiful light and a quiet moment together.
