Sophia and Shelby handled the day of the wedding and they were soooooo amazing!! My family isn’t the most punctual people and they handled it with such Grace and professionalism!!!! Would recommend this venue to any future couple getting married and deciding on venues!! THIS IS THE SPOT!!!

Wedding reception/dance

Our experience with Kayla and the staff at the Sanctuary was phenomenal! My husband and I had our wedding and reception at the Sanctuary this fall and we were so impressed from start to finish! Kayla's professionalism and attention to detail made our day completely stress free. Thank you Kayla for going above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect. We received MANY comments on how beautiful the venue was. Thank you for letting us celebrate our big day at the Sanctuary and making it the best day ever!!

We contacted the Sanctuary Event Center after our original ceremony venue double booked us. They welcomed us with open arms and did everything they could do to make our day perfect. We had our rehearsal dinner there the night before our wedding and the food was delicious. They let us rehearse our ceremony with the audio and everything! We can't remember his name (sorry), but he was very attentive to what music we wanted, timing, and lighting for the ceremony. Kayla and Richard did a wonderful job organizing and making the day stress-free. The area surrounding the building is also great for taking pictures!

The Staff are the Best!

Not only did we live out of state when we planned our wedding, we also were dealing with changes due to Covid. Kayla walked us through the whole wedding process step by step. She met with us on short notice whenever we were in town and sent us photos when we couldn't meet in person. Every person we meet here did an amazing job and the day went so smoothly because of their hard work and helpfulness. 10/10 this is the place to be in Fargo. Beautiful venue, easy for guests (everything at one place), and wonderful staff who are there for you at each step of the process.

The sanctuary staff, Kayla, was beyond amazing. Responded so fast, even at 10pm at night. Very accommodating the day of the wedding as well.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
