We have designed our facility to host your dream wedding, but we host many other social gatherings as well. We allow the ceremony to take place off-site, however our rental pricing does not adjust accordingly. To best accommodate our couples, we accept reservations for “non-wedding” events up to one year in advance for Sunday-Thursday events and six weeks in advance for Friday, Saturday or Sunday events.

Our barn, Garden Atrium & Lounge (which has our kitchen, restrooms & bridal suite) are climate controlled, fully insulated and equipped with modern heating and air conditioning equipment, which was intentionally oversized to quickly heat or cool these spaces when occupied by our guests. Your guests will appreciate not having to use a smelly outhouse on our farm! We have 10 restroom stalls located in the Lone Tree Lounge with sinks, hand dryers and even a baby changing station.

Yes. We are proud to be fully accessible. When we designed our space, we considered all forms of accessibility because we wanted our venue to be accessible to everyone including people with disabilities and those who may have limited mobility. Everyone, no matter what their ability can access every amenity we offer.

Our entire facility is 14 acres with large climate-controlled spaces so that your guests have plenty of room to spread out. While groups of all sizes will find our space comfortable and inviting, our private events have no more than 300 people in attendance.

For safety reasons we do not allow pets. We will allow our coupes to bring their pets for photos and ceremony with written permission.

Yes! We have a combination of 96” rectangular, 72” round and 30” pub tables. 600 white wedding chairs with padded seats. (These chairs can be used for the ceremony & dinner). We have 25 48” square metal tables & 100 industrial chairs located on the outside courtyard. We can design a layout, set up and arrange your tables for an additional fee or you may place them where you desire for no additional charge. Removal & takedown of the tables are included with the rental fee.

Yes. We have two portable sound systems for use at any of our outdoor ceremony locations. Each system features Bluetooth and a wireless microphone. A sound technician is not provided during your ceremony. We also have an interconnected audio system that provides background music and amplification of speeches, wedding vows or general announcements over our wireless microphone system. These speakers are located within the Historic Barn, Barnyard pavilion, Courtyard, Lounge, restrooms and covered porches. Amplified music from a DJ or Band must be projected through speakers provided by them. We also have a projection screen within the Historic Barn for any visual accommodations you may need.

Yes. We have multiple electrical sources for Band or DJ hookups throughout our property to enjoy your reception- indoors or out!

Yes. Our state-of-the-art LED lighting system allows us to project soft and subtle up lighting in the barn and lounge area and features a series of colors that can be matched to your wedding colors.

No. Our events are booked back-to-back so we allow for no exceptions. Unless we do not have an event booked 6 weeks prior to your event, we offer special discounted pricing for day-before set ups. Keep in mind that because everything is located on the property, there is a lot of time saved from traveling place-to-place. Rolling Ridge was designed to host the entirety of your event. Since outdoor weddings usually take place later in the afternoon in comparison to a traditional church ceremony, you will have plenty of time to set up the morning of your event.

The use of real burning candles and open flames is strictly prohibited. Flames to not mix well with the wood barn! Same goes for sparklers. Chinese lanterns are unfortunately illegal in Minnesota. Smoking is permitted outdoors in designated areas away from the barn.

We have 10 options for you to choose from. Our most popular location is the Foundation Patio (Rock Wall). Other favorites include the large Outdoor Courtyard surrounded by gardens, a large outdoorsy space with views of rolling hills or under the shade of the massive oak trees and our beautiful wooden arbor. Our Barn or Garden Atrium provides a beautiful alternative for an indoor ceremony if mother nature doesn’t cooperate.

Yes. You may provide your own dessert items and they may be stored in our walk-in cooler. We will gladly cut and serve your own wedding cake or dessert items. No other outside food or beverage is allowed.

We have a full-service bar with many Wine, Beer or Liquor selections to choose from. Our lounge features a large built-in bar with water stations, keg and bottled beer refrigeration and digital menu boards.

Can we bring in our own food or beverage?

No. (with the exception of dessert or pre-approved snack items) We can provide breakfast, lunch, appetizers dinner and late night food options through our in house catering company.

Yes. We have our own insurance coverage, however, whenever you host a large event at our facility or at any other location, securing event liability insurance is a good idea to limit your risk and liability. Depending upon your coverage options, event insurance is surprisingly inexpensive and protects you, your guests and our property in the case of an unpredictable occurrence such as a wedding cancellation (covers your down payments), extreme weather (tornado), or other unlikely events that should occur. We require a $1M coverage per occurrence coverage with the policy listing Rolling Ridge LLC as additional insured. We HIGHLY recommend going through WedSafe. They make it super easy for couples to understand and fill out the necessary paperwork, they will then automatically send us the certificate. Please take a look at their website www.wedsafe.com
