Wedding Venue Review

Selecting the ideal venue for our St. Paul wedding was crucial, and A’bulae surpassed all our expectations. From the moment we arrived, we knew it was the perfect choice. The atmosphere at A’bulae is simply enchanting. Its blend of industrial charm and modern amenities provided a stunning backdrop for our special day. Whether indoors in the elegant dining space or picturesque rooftop, every area of the venue was impeccably maintained and thoughtfully designed.

The staff at A’bulae were outstanding. They were attentive, accommodating, and genuinely dedicated to making our day unforgettable. From our initial visit to the wedding day itself, they guided us through every detail with professionalism and care. We would like to give a special thank you to Katelyn Reid who helped us at every step of the way and was attentive throughout our meetings and emails.

A highlight was the exceptional food and beverage service. The catering team at A’bulae crafted a culinary experience that delighted our guests. The menu options were delicious, and they seamlessly accommodated dietary preferences and needs. We had several guests say the food was amazing!

Our experience with A’bulae was nothing short of amazing. They provided the backdrop for a wedding day that exceeded our dreams. If you’re seeking a venue in the St. Paul area that combines elegance, charm, and exceptional service, A’bulae is the perfect choice. They created memories for us that will last a lifetime, and we couldn’t be more grateful.

Everything we could have asked for!

A'bulae was an incredible venue to host our wedding at. The venue is is designed very thoughtfully and has a great space for not only the ceremony and reception, but has perfect bridal / grooms suites to get ready in and convenient parking for guests. Both the rooftop and ball room make for great spaces. (One of the main reasons we chose A'bulae was the staff and that we liked both the indoor and outdoor spaces in the event of bad weather.

The staff was also exactly what we needed. From setting up our first tour, to the day of the wedding - all of the venue staff were all incredibly easy to work with. They communicated quickly, helped us make decisions, and took care of so many small details when our attention was elsewhere.

Wonderful!!

Absolute the perfect place for our wedding! We wanted an all inclusive venue where we didn’t have to worry about set up, tear down, decor, table linens, silverware, napkins, charger plates… anything that almost all other venues do not provide! Communication with the venue leading up to our wedding day was also amazing. They made sure to reach out for information and answered our questions in a very timely manner! All of the staff was so sweet and helpful! Highly recommend!
