Vadnais Heights Commons- Ceremony & reception

We had a wonderful experience at this venue! It was so beautiful & big! We had the option to do an outdoor or indoor ceremony and ended up going with an indoor ceremony, which was perfect! Shannon and Lorah were amazing to work with- 10/10 recommend! We are so happy with our decision!

Best Day of My Life - For Real

We were planning our wedding about a year out with no idea what we were doing. Lorah was SUPER helpful. She gave us a list of trusted vendors and basically took some of the initial shock and stress out of planning. She answered all of our (1,000) questions in a very timely fashion and our whole event went amazingly. We met Shannon, our "day of" event coordinator the week of our wedding. She was outstanding. We both felt drained and ready to "get it over with" that week. Shannon's personality and knack for keeping things moving smoothly put us at ease and made us super excited again. Everything went according to plan and all our guests said it was one of the best weddings they had ever been to. We both truly feel like these women our friends of ours now. There were so many wonderful moments that I couldn't even pick out a "favorite part." Vadnais Heights Commons is a beautiful and affordable venue and we would highly recommend their space for your special day!

Gorgeous Winter Wedding!

The Commons was spacious and gorgeous in winter. Lorah was very encouraging and accommodating as we pushed our daughter and son-in-law's reception out one year. She and Shannon were calm, professional, and friendly. They handled the logistics on the day of the Reception so that we could enjoy our family and friends. That was a tremendous gift! Our celebration exceeded our expectations.

The most amazing stress free experience

My husband and I had an amazing experience with Lorah and Shannon. The planning process was easy and the wedding day was perfect. As the bride, I didn't do anything besides get married and enjoy the evening on the day of. I had not one thing to worry about because everything was taken care of by everyone involved there at The Commons.

The venue is beautiful, the vendor options are phenomenal, especially Noah the DJ and Molly for food, and the people who work there are ontop of everything. Our guests were extremely happy and everyone we've spoken to has raved about how nice of a wedding it was.

I'd highly recommend.

Amazing support!

We were devastated to move our May of 2020 wedding - Lorah and her team were so supportive with helping us navigate through so much uncertainty. VHC is gorgeous and Lorah was so responsive and took so much stress off our shoulders. Book VHC - you will not be disappointed!

VHC-beautiful and simple space you can make your own

We were so happy with Vadnais Heights Commons- Lorah and Amy were amazing planners and so kind and helpful. Planning our wedding amidst COVID was stressful and they were incredibly easy to work with. The space was beautiful and was able to accommodate a lot of people safely and comfortably. The larger main hall area looked so pretty for both our ceremony and reception and we loved it so much!

The perfect day

Everything was so beautiful and perfect we couldn’t have imagined getting married anywhere else! Lorah was so easy to work with and really made sure that all of our questions and concerns were answered and addressed during the planning process and Shannon was amazing the day of our wedding! She made everyone comfortable and made everything fun! We honestly could not have asked for anything more from everyone at The Commons!

VHC Flexiblity

We are grateful to have planned our wedding through VHC. Because of Covid-19, we have had to make some hard decisions. They were willing to refund us for the ceremony so we could hold a backyard wedding with family instead. They also moved our reception date to celebrate with family & friends the following year with no issues. Lorah is great to work with and so helpful! Not to mention, it's such a beautiful space too!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
