From the moment my husband and I pulled up to tour Legacy Hill Farm, we knew it was our dream venue and it absolutely lived up to our expectations. We were looking for a single ou...tdoor venue for both the ceremony and reception that wasn't too far from the Twin Cities. Legacy Hill Farm was the exact vibe we wanted- lots of nature, light, airy, whimsical, and mostly outdoors (but it does have a pavilion roof in case it rains). It doesn't feel like other barn venues and I would hardly cluster it in that category other than the beautiful farm fields and some cute animals on site (roosters were clucking during our ceremony, which we enjoyed!). LHF is so elegantly simple and beautiful, with the perfect amount of rustic touches. From the fountain at the entrance to the twinkling bistro lights at cocktail hour, it truly felt like we had a storybook wedding.
When my bridesmaids and I arrived in the morning, LHF had the fountain going, music playing, and candles giving off a lovely scent. We were all immediately awestruck. We lucked out with a gorgeous 80 degree day in July, but LHF had its grounds in perfect condition. Everything felt very clean and well taken care of.
LHF turned out to be the absolute perfect venue to hold a wedding during a pandemic. We didn't have to alter our original plan at all- the holds 300 guests and so our 130 guests fit comfortably. They were able to social distance on the pews during the ceremony and tables in the pavilion could be spaced 6 feet apart for dinner. We rented some lounges from Hello Wildflower and they were utilized a lot, not to mention were great places to take photographs.
In the evening, many guests hung out at the fire pit and outdoor bistro tables. These options were such great alternatives during covid. We happened to have an almost full moon, and the views over the farm fields were incredible. The entire pavilion and bar area were warmly lit and glowing, which gave the wedding an enchanted feeling all night.
Everything flowed so smoothly, from feeling like a princess as we got ready in the bridal suite, to dinner and dancing under the full moon. Legacy Hill Farm was everything and more that we ever dreamed of. It didn't even feel like a pandemic wedding.
