About this venue
Abbey Stark
EVENT COORDINATOR
Set among the rolling hills of a working vineyard in Dayton, Minnesota, Thicket Hill Vineyard & Winery offers a wedding experience that feels like a destination without leaving the Twin Cities. The 100-acre property combines vineyards, open countryside, and sweeping views with a beautifully designed modern venue—giving couples the best of wine country and contemporary elegance in one setting.
What truly sets Thicket Hill apart is the experience of having the vineyard woven throughout your wedding day. Begin the morning in an expansive second-floor bridal suite overlooking the vines, while the groom and his party enjoy private groom’s quarters downstairs. Exchange vows outdoors with the vineyard as your backdrop or choose an elegant indoor ceremony, giving you beautiful options in every season.
Inside, the 14,500-square-foot venue features a spacious ballroom for up to 320 guests, a grand staircase, welcoming lobby, full bar, and thoughtfully designed spaces that flow naturally from ceremony to cocktail hour to reception.
As a family-owned vineyard and winery, Thicket Hill offers something few wedding venues can—a celebration surrounded by the vines while guests enjoy wines grown and crafted right here in Minnesota. From vineyard views and memorable photo opportunities to modern amenities and genuine hospitality, Thicket Hill creates a wedding experience that feels distinctly Minnesota and entirely your own.
