The team at Equestria West is second to none! They were so helpful during the planning process and kept me on track with the myriad of decisions that need to be made. Ann and her team were always available for questions if I needed them. Planning a wedding in less than 6 months was easier because of EW. The day of my wedding went smoothly because of the team at Equestria West. They kept everyone on track and made sure the vendors were where they were supposed to be. The venue is AMAZING and spacious for all of our guests and bridal party. There was nothing overlooked when they built this venue.

We got married at North Star Farm in the spring of 2024. From the moment we toured we knew it was the place for us. Everything we hoped for was all there in one place. Rebecca was a joy to work with. Very organized and thorough, which made everything so easy for us to navigate. Which took so much of the stress away from me in the process. I must say, everything about the day was amazing and it went better then I could have ever imagine.

NCW is a beautiful location. We were comforted knowing that our outdoor ceremony would have a space to move into if the weather turned (luckily, we had sunshine!). Jackie and Jeff made it so easy to plan the day and the details. The space is so beautiful, we hardly added decoration. Highly recommend NCW!

GarageTown LLC 

5.0

Waterville, MN
  • Up to 200 guests
  • Select services
  • Indoor & outdoor

Our ol' 10 acre charm farm dates back to before MN was a state in the abstract. It's been in Brady’s family since the summer of '69 and we plan to keep it that way for generations to come. The original family that homesteaded the property came from Czechoslovakia. They built the hand-hewn log cabin on a boulder foundation and owned it for 112 years. Brady grew up in the home since '87 which has transformed over time into the gem that we have today. We kickstarted our journey at GarageTown LLC with our wedding in August, 2021. We look forward to creating more memories and sharing our historic and creative property with you! Forever Grateful, Brady & Jenni

This place is a showstopper!! There’s a rustic retro charm to the place partnered with a beautiful green yard, plants, and trees. Brady was so professional and prompt with responding to our inquiries and was more than happy to tell us the story of how the place came to be- so cool! He and his wife Jennifer really know how to decorate and bring this venue to life. Your guests will be talking about this wedding venue for years to come. From antique cars, handmade pergola, nature-filled pond, rustic bar, clematis flower arches, to lush trees/grass you’ll have the perfect unique setting with countless photo opportunities for you and your guests. And if you think it looks good in the daylight, you should see it lit up at night - breathtaking. I highly recommend this venue to anybody looking to make lasting memories at a gorgeous location.

The Gardens Of Castle Rock was the perfect choice for our wedding venue.

The venue itself was immaculate - clean, organized, and absolutely beautiful. They were incredibly helpful, ensuring my vendors had everything they needed to execute our vision flawlessly.
