About this vendor
Welcome to Weddings at Olive Branch Farm!
Our beautiful 4,600 square foot red barn sits on 22 picturesque acres of organic orchard, farm, and woodland. The ceremony site is intimately nestled between a wooded ravine on one side and farm pastures on the other. Rows of wooden benches for your guests point toward a striking 12 foot wooden cross, creating a stunning backdrop to exchange vows.
The romantic ambiance of the reception site is heightened with indoor and outdoor café lights, artisan farm tables, metal and wood café chairs, an oak wine barrel dessert table, antique stove, two attached outdoor covered gathering spaces, an open lawn with lawn games, and cozy fire pits.
Our family owned farm was built with love from the very beginning. The big red barn was created in 2018 by a loving father and every detail was joyfully designed and created by our family. We are so excited to share this blessing that God has given us and committed to making your new beginning the best it can be.
With a family of four siblings and four weddings we know firsthand how stressful the wedding weekend can be! This is why we only host a limited number of weddings per season with only one wedding per weekend to eliminate the stress of setup and take down. We are conveniently located an hour south of the Twin Cities and less than ten minutes from both Mankato and St. Peter with many hotel options for the wedding party and their guests. We can't wait to spend your special day with you!

Olive Branch Farm is a beautiful, family owned, wedding venue, and we recommend it to anyone planning to have an outdoor wedding.
My wife and I had our ceremony and reception at OBF, and we loved every second of it. The farm, the beautiful wooden cross at the ceremony site, and the patio perfect for cocktail hour and outdoor games were the biggest reasons we fell in love with it. We had many guests tell us that our wedding was the best they had ever been to, and we attribute a large part of that to OBF.
In terms of staff, it was a pleasure to work with Sidney and Whitney. They were very helpful throughout the wedding process and even offered to store our desserts in their house since OBF does not have any refrigerators on site. Unfortunately, they were brought out too early and melted, but we are still glad that they stored them for us in the first place.
One thing that we wish would have been easier was the process of getting event insurance. The instructions provided to us by OBF were confusing, and we had to go back and forth with them and an insurance agent to make sure we had the correct wording on our certificate.
Another difficulty of working with OBF was figuring out champagne for toasts. Our caterer did not offer alcohol service, so we had to devise a different way to serve it. It was apparent that OBF did not have experience with this, so it was a bit of a challenge to set it all up. However, we found a solution, and are thankful for their help in this regard.
Despite a few frustrations, we loved working with and having our wedding at Olive Branch Farm. Thank you OBF for your hospitality and providing us this beautiful venue for our perfect day!
We absolutely loved our wedding venue! The venue coordinators are wonderful, and so easy and fun to work with. They are professional and really know what they are doing. The contract includes a decorating package option and we went for it! We simply put together a Pinterest board of our vision for our wedding and they brought it to life! There are follow up meetings leading up to the wedding day to go over details. They communicated professionally and worked really well with our needs and all of our vendors.
Our wedding day was seamless and everything went so smoothly. I felt so taken care of on my wedding day! I will forever obsess over how beautiful our wedding day was because of the venue!
Thank you OBF!!
Olive Branch Farm was everything and more that I could dream of for a wedding venue! The staff was nothing short of amazing - they were prompt, organized, and helpful in all aspects. They even decorated the venue for me which was a huge stress reliever and they hit my vision spot on. I had many compliments from my guests about how pretty this venue was. HIGHLY recommend!!!
Such an amazing venue to hold a wedding. The barn is a spectacular space to hold your reception or wedding. There is plenty of space for outdoor games and cocktail hour outside of the barn. The setting is wonderful for spring, summer, and fall weddings. An added bonus to Olive Branch Farm is the family that runs the venue. They are the kindest and most generous family. Support small businesses and have a wedding venue your guests will talk about for years to come.
My cousin got married at this venue and it was beautiful! From the ceremony to the reception, every aspect of it was intimate. The barn itself is so warm and inviting you wouldn’t have even noticed the chilly October weather. The barn itself is big enough to hold large weddings while making it feel like a cozy family gathering. It is truly a simple beauty!
