Barn / western venues in North dakota

North Dakota is dotted with beautifully restored barns that provide the perfect backdrop for a Western-themed wedding. Venues like the Lone Oak Farm Event Venue in Ayr and Lake Elsie Wedding Barn near Wahpeton boast rustic wooden interiors, soaring ceilings, and plenty of space for dining and dancing. These barns often feature outdoor spaces for ceremonies, so you can say “I do” under the big blue sky. I have tons of different venues I work with each year and have yet to find one I don't love. Here are a few of my favorites! 

A wedding at Stiklestad Lodge in Fort Ransom, ND, is one of my favorite venues for several different reasons. First being it is set up to have a charming and rustic feel, and the true Minnesotan in me loves that. This location is known for its lodge-inspired architecture, windy wood trails through the on site lodging cabins and a picture perfect view of the water.

Rustic Charm: The lodge features beautiful log architecture, a warm, cozy atmosphere, and breathtaking views of the surrounding landscape.

Outdoor Spaces: The venue has stunning outdoor areas perfect for a ceremony with nature as the backdrop, especially in the summer or fall. 

On-Site Lodging: I love that there are tiny little cabins through out the property making it a perfect place for out of town guest, bridal party or family to stay the weekend. 

Indoor Reception Area: The lodge's interior provides a mix of elegance and rustic charm, ideal for dining and dancing for smaller wedding parties.

Larger Reception Area: There is a larger reception area across the road that is all part of the same ownership that is available  to rent if you have a bigger party!
