Kelly made everything an absolute breeze - many times so much so she had me in tears of relief throughout the planning process. Their staff made our guests and ourselves feel comfortable & they all went above and beyond to give us a beautiful day I cannot thank them enough. The day of coordinators were incredible & so patient, attentive & kind! Our guests are still raving about the venue & everything they have to offer from the brand new winery to the petting zoo to the outdoor yard games and space. The tent fit all 200 + of our guests comfortably & the mini donuts & hay ride they provided absolutely topped our perfect wedding off. It was absolutely whimsical & unique- A must for any couple seeking a beautiful romantic outdoor venue with a beautiful white marquee tent pre- equipped with all the necessities / extras you could want.
Huge thank you to Minnetonka Orchards, Kelly & her staff. You're a family valued business & your values showed strong while we worked with you - so from our family to yours we cannot thank you enough.

An AMAZING Wedding Establishment
The Minnetonka Orchards was exactly what we were looking for in our wedding venue. From the beautiful ceremony site to the picturesque reception tent/site, yard games and fire pit we could not have been happier! Kelly was awesome to work with as were the day of coordinators. Every request we had/inquired about Kelly was quick to help/solve to ensure our day was exactly what we wanted. The amount of compliments we had from guests was overwhelming - it sealed the deal we picked the perfect location to celebrate the beginning of our lives as husband and wife.
