My husband and I looked at five other venues before choosing TPC. We loved the big windows, higher ceilings, mixed wood with accent gold, and the elegant, yet, cozy feel. We loved ...the large locker rooms/getting-ready space because we had a 20-person wedding party. It was perfect! Not only that, we were able to start our routine right away when they opened at 8am! Working with Lisa was incredible! Our planning was two years in the making because of the pandemic. Lisa was so gracious and patient with us while we went back and forth with uncertainty. She was so helpful in helping me make decisions, whether it was food or agenda times. Lisa always had suggestions and expressed positivity and hopefulness when I fell into a slump. And as we all know, on the day of, things are going to be missed… I had a detailed agenda with roles, decor, etc. but when I found out my DJ was out sick and not coming, my brain completely shut down. Lisa just took care of it and made sh*t happen! She had easels for me (that I forgot), had extra table numbers (I was missing some), helped set up our 22-person harvest table, and arranged everything without me even asking. She saw my boxes and just did it. In addition, she was so good with my 2-year old ring bearer and flower girl! She kept time and checked in with us about everything, AND she helped the dining staff serve our food and refilled my wine plenty.
TPC’s food was SO GOOD! We catered breakfast and lunch that day too, and was so well-fed, we weren’t even hungry for apps and dinner! We got compliments about the parm-crusted walleye and ribeye steak ALL NIGHT! Even some of the kids requested a second kids meal. To be honest, I have never been to a wedding where the food was indeed THIS delicious. I’m so happy it was mine, haha!
A few other things:
-Outdoor ceremony is beautiful and worth the extra money.
-Do drapes indoors! It added the perfect amount of elegance and beauty.
-We paid extra for an enlarged dance floor - totally worth it!
-The locker rooms remained open for wedding party use, so I loved being able to use the bathroom privately without running into guests. This was also a great spot when I needed a second to breathe and rest my feet.
-Truly, the only tiny downside was that the venue/golf course is open to the public so sometimes while taking pictures, players would walk by or share the locker room space. It wasn’t a big issue though, just something to consider.
We highly recommend TPC Twin Cities and working with Lisa! It was the best day ever, indeed!
