Wedding Venues for Small Ceremonies in Minneapolis St Paul

Wedding Venues for Small Ceremonies in Minneapolis St Paul

A guide for Small Wedding Venues in the Twin Cities

Maybe a small wedding venue in Minnesota is what you had in mind to start with! Maybe it wasn’t ! However, if you are leaning towards a more intimate celebration of your wedding ceremony for now,  I’d like to jump in and give you some tips as a wedding photographer.

 I have included information on small Weddings in Minneapolis and Minnesota and a list of my favorite wedding venues in Minnesota and the Twin cities that accommodate Intimate Weddings with smaller groups.

Intimate ceremonies and Mini Weddings

Small Weddings are a great choice for couples who want a simpler wedding.

Wedding Venues offering Small Weddings in Minneapolis

While we sometimes use both terms Elopement or Small Weddings for minimal ceremonies with few guests, small weddings have a few more guests and there is more planning involved.  Smaller weddings require more planning, usually a venue, a few vendors and a set date!  Some couples choose to keep the ceremony limited to close friends and family and some even choose to not have a big dance.

It’s a big city but it is full of little gems! I have created this list of wedding venues in Minneapolis that are accommodating intimate ceremonies at the moment!
