Look no further…7 Vines is your dream venue! I had both my ceremony and reception here on 10/10/2021 after postponing in 2020 due to the pandemic. 7 Vines is just a class act all around.
I knew the moment that I visited 7 Vines in the summer... of 2018 with a friend to, “check out this winery that was built in our hometown!” that it was going to be my wedding venue. I remember telling my (now) husband that same day that if he was going to marry me, I wanted it to be there. He made me check out two other venues just to be sure, which I did, but they didn’t even hold a candle to what 7 Vines has. It is just this amazing place and easily the most gorgeous winery in MN. Everywhere you turn your head at 7 Vines, you just see beauty all around you. Especially if you get married here in the fall, when the leaves are changing colors and the weather is nice and cool.
Lorah Palmer, the Event Coordinator, has chosen the best of the best wedding vendors on her Preferred Vendors List. For my wedding, I chose the following:
- Riverside Hitmen live band: literally incredible . The best wedding band I have ever heard. They brought the house down and all of my guests were dancing the night away. Kyle Tennis the manager is very friendly and easy to correspond with.
- Elegance by Design Floral: the freshest, most gorgeous flowers and reasonably priced. My bouquet, the bridesmaid bouquets, and boutineers were stunning. Tara the florist listened to my requests for the flowers types and colors, and hit it out of the park!!
- Donatelli’s Catering: my guests raved about the food and the expediency in which they were served through the buffet line. Top-notch customer service.
- James Ramsay photography: James is so fun and easy-going while getting incredible photos and shots. You feel like you’re getting your picture taken by an old friend.
- Thirsty Whale Bakery: they made the tastiest, out-of-this-world gorgeous tiered geode wedding cake. I couldn’t believe my eyes when I saw the cake: simply stunning. All the guests could not stop talking about it and how delicious it was, too!
The only area where 7 Vines may cause some difficulty is if you have a large bridal party and you all want to get completely ready on-site. The Bridal Suite, while lovely and functional, felt a little tight with myself, bridal attendant, 3 bridesmaids, and 2 flower girls in there at once. There also is not a Groom’s Suite. These two concerns are quite minor and do not detract from how amazing 7 Vines is, however I just thought I should mention it as a heads-up.
In summation: I would not have chosen any other venue in Minnesota to have my wedding at. 7 Vines Vineyard is nestled on an incredible
tract of land with rows of lush vines, has a beautiful pond, and is surrounded by huge mature trees. The winery itself was modeled off the wineries of Napa Valley and is just gorgeous. The staff at the winery are all best in class and will make sure you have the wedding of your dreams.
