"The Dellwood Barn was an excellent venue for our rustic, country themed wedding"

“The Dellwood Barn was an excellent venue for our rustic, country themed wedding. The owners were very accommodating with the things we wanted to do and how we wanted to decorate. The location is great by being close to hotels and the twin cities. We highly recommend this venue for those that like the country style and want to be creative and artistic with your decorating desires. The possibilities are endless.”

"I just wanted to send a HUGE thank you for our beautiful wedding."

“It was wonderful weather and the day could not have been any more perfect. It was so special to have my wedding at your barn and see my vision of "rustic elegant" come to life. You guys were wonderful to work with, and Julie, you put so much time and effort into making sure everything went smoothly. I loved all the little special touches from the tractor to the wood benches for cocktail hour and the lace around the doorway. The lights in the barn sparkled and even the bathrooms were fantastic! Thank you for helping my dream become a reality”

- Andrea and Seth Anderson
