We visited several possible ceremony/reception cites, and the James J. Hill Library hit us as "the one" the moment we walked in. We loved the idea of celebrating surrounded by books, with classic architecture and elegance. Beth couldn't have been more helpful as we planned the ceremony and reception, booked vendors, and made repeated trips to the Library to take measurements for decorations we wanted to do ourselves. We were able to get one vendor tax-free by going through the Library, and Beth even volunteered to call our musicians (non-professional friends of ours) with reminders and to walk through the ceremony schedule. We were able to have exactly the wedding we wanted, and as my mother continues to say about that night, "The room just glowed."

Ambience was excellent, though it felt a bit too much like being stuck in a library after a while. Shop around.

James J Hill Library responded with the following comments:

Did you have two receptions; one at the Library and one at the Sheraton?? It sounds like it..... You aren't the person who had their wedding and their reception at the Hill Library on Sept 4th, 2004.
