Leading up to the big day, Megan made sure we stayed on schedule and offered invaluable advice and suggestions. The wedding day felt like everything was just taken care of. She worked with all our vendors and coordinated everything seamlessly.
If I had the opportunity to do the day all over again, I would certainly come back to this venue and work with Megan again. I would probably be less nervous, though… knowing everything was truly taken care of 😊

of the wedding we made a last minute pivot to move in doors due to rain threat, and Robyn and her team, easily made the transition and created a beautiful indoor setting. They smoothly transitioned the setting from wedding to reception. The cocktail area is also great, and it was nice to have some indoor cool spaces for our older guests. The venue is gorgeous, and while it says “old barn”, it is stunning with the wood and chandeliers. I can’t say enough good things, and thank-you Robyn for helping us create such an amazing wedding!

The downstairs space was perfect for the reception, and the bridal suite shed out back was adorable—plenty of room for me and my seven bridesmaids. One of the biggest hits was the fire pit with the s’mores package—such a fun, cozy touch to end the night.
We couldn’t have asked for a more beautiful or well-run venue. Green Acres made our wedding unforgettable!

We truly loved our wedding at Green Acres Event Center! The location is beautiful and the building leans well into its historic past while also feeling modern. The upstairs hall ha...
s a rich wood tone with gorgeous chandeliers and cozy alcoves. The acoustics were also great for dancing and speeches. However, we unfortunately did not have a seamless experience with venue management. We had three different venue managers over the time period when we booked the venue to the actual wedding date, which added undue stress. On our wedding day, it was disconcerting to find that the upstairs room setup details (harvest table, picture table, dessert table, etc.) we went over with the venue coordinator beforehand were not completed when we arrived. Also, the arbor and ceremony area were not set up when the wedding party arrived at 1:00 PM. The area also had significant bare patches with no grass despite our being told this would be addressed when we booked the year before. The coordinator seemed unaware that a rain shower came through shortly before guests started arriving, so we had to ask that chairs outside be dried before guests were seated. When a heavy, surprise rain shower interrupted our ceremony and everyone was rushed inside, staff seemed panicked and most decisions on how to best move forward were made instead between the bride, groom and our privately-hired day-of-coordinator. Overall, we were a little frustrated to have to ask the daytime coordinator to do things that had been previously agreed upon. We had a better experience with the evening coordinator who was fantastic and kindly helped the bride redo her makeup after the rain. Side note: the detached bridal building is super lovely but we found it inconvenient that the bride had to walk to and from to use the restroom inside the barn prior to the ceremony. Since we did not have a first look, it required communication to keep the groom from seeing the bride during her restroom runs. Additionally, the groom space was awesome but there were not enough hooks to hang clothing or clutter-free spots to keep belongings like backpacks, etc. All in all, we would definitely recommend the venue but improvements could be made to honoring the significant time the wedding party invested in plans that were ultimately not fulfilled day-of without prompting.

Thank you so much for taking the time to share your experience, Chris! We’re so happy to h...
ear that you loved the beauty of Green Acres Event Center and that the space was a perfect backdrop for your special day. We truly appreciate your kind words about the upstairs hall, chandeliers, and acoustics – it’s wonderful to hear that those elements contributed to your wedding’s ambiance.
We understand how important it is for everything to go smoothly. It is common for setup to still be in progress, especially with a few hours remaining before guest arrival. With rain in the forecast, we wanted to ensure that everything remained dry and safe, which caused a slight delay in completing the outdoor ceremony area. We regret that this added to your stress and will continue to work on making the process as seamless as possible for future couples.
It’s also good to hear your positive feedback about our evening coordinator, and we’re glad that she was able to help with the bride’s makeup. We will also take your comments about the bridal suite and groom's lounge to heart, as we strive to offer as much convenience as possible for everyone.
We are grateful for your recommendation and the opportunity to serve you on such an important day. Wishing you all the best as you begin this exciting new chapter!

I love that it was restored and they added some very cute getting ready areas for the men in the Silo and the little cottage in back (I called it the Hen house). It also had a great area for the ceremony outside and a nice fireplace in the back for guests to enjoy the outdoors in the nice weather. I highly recommend Green Acres Event Center for your wedding. It is well worth it! Thank you so much for all the staff and all the work you all did and especially Robyn for her amazing help throughout the day! It was one of the best days ever!

to date on everything and very responsive in her communications. The event center itself is absolutely gorgeous! I fell in love with the antique interior right away. When I saw my wife waiting for me at the end of the aisle, all of the lights were creating this gorgeous glow about her... I honestly fell in love all over again. The only downside I could see being a possible issue for other brides is that there is no bathroom in the bridal suite, it is only a few feet away from the suite itself. But nervous energy meant needing to kick out all guests on the saloon floor. This got quite annoying to many guests, they understood but that was the only flaw I could possibly see.

We had our first look in front of the bridal sweet and the photos were perfect. The staff at Green Acres, specially Brooke, is top notch and was so great to work with when wedding planning. Great communication, helpful (on the day of too) and was very open to any and all ideas you might have for your event. We can’t recommend Green Acres enough, lived up to everything we had hoped for to make it our dream wedding!

ble for us to come see the space in the midst of wedding planning so we could figure out details like where to put what kind of table. They also had a new bridal getting ready space that was awesome. Our wedding day was hot (100 deg) but the shaded ceremony space gave our guests some relief from the heat and many of them commented on how nice that was. Above all, the space is absolutely beautiful and didn’t need much for decorations which is what sold us on this venue. Overall highly recommend getting married at Green Acres!

We absolutely LOVE Green Acres Event Center!!
We had our wedding there a couple days ago and everything about the venue we love from charming, rustic , beautiful barn with elegant ...
chandeliers , to the exceptional detail every where you turn, inside and out!! The gorgeous outside of the venue has a beautiful fire pit area and is inviting in every way! Even better than the gorgeous venue and great location is Brooke and the staff! Brooke and Pria worked alongside us to make it a perfect wedding experience! She and her staff were organized, attentive, caring, patient, and good communicators! We will certainly look forward to hosting another event again at the Green Acres Event Center in Eden Prairie, MN!!
