About this venue

Stonewall Farms is a farm-style wedding venue located on the banks of the scenic and secluded Solomon Lake near Wilmar, Minnesota, that provides an extraordinary backdrop for a classic and private Midwestern wedding celebration. Its peaceful setting and simplistic elegance will make your big day truly a joyful and memorable experience.

Facilities and Capacity

Stonewall Farms offers unique indoor and outdoor spaces that are located on 80 acres of manicured grounds. The White Oak Barn is unlike any other structure in the Midwest and has been transformed from a Friesian horse breeding stable to an exceptional event facility. The upstairs loft creates an elegant ceremony site and dance location. The main level of the building includes a central aisle way for small group gatherings or rehearsal dinners.

The Pine Pavilion is the perfect place for hosting a truly fairytale reception. The space is brought to life by chandeliers and hundreds of feet of cafe lighting. It has a capacity of about 250 for dining and can be easily tailored to meet the specific needs of each event. The Pine Pavillion ceremony site is located in the heart of Scotch Pine Forest, where guests will be immersed in the beauty of native surroundings.

History

Bryce and Kim Holmgren purchased this property with the intention of developing it into a Friesian horse breeding facility. The first wedding hosted at Stonewall was in 2007, but the transformation into an event venue didn’t happen until the summer of 2010, with the completion of the White Oak Barn. The property still continues to add new additions and structures that will only elevate its setting and the events that it hosts.

The Perfect Venue

We got the wedding of our dreams from Stonewall Farms. The owners, event coordinator, and the team were phenomenal the entire day, and we even got to have our rehearsal and groom's dinner at the venue the day before. They have a wedding planner included, Liz, and she is wonder woman! The entire venue is beautiful with so much to do and see. While the venue is already beautifully decorated as you can see in photos and comes with so many decorations, we also brought our own and they helped set it up for us! They have a fantastic reputation and working relationship with the vendors in the area too, so catering and other vendors went without a hiccup because of the seasoned experience everyone has out there. Many of our guests told us it was the most beautiful wedding they'd ever been to, all because of the venue and the owners and their team. It's unique, classy, elegant, and so fun! We didn't need it, but they did have the option to move the ceremony indoors as well. Don't hesitate to plan a short road trip out to see the location for yourself, you won't regret it!

Wow! You guys are awesome! We were totally impressed with your quick answers to all our questions along the way as we were planning our big day. We have also been told by quite a few people that this was the most beautiful venue that they have seen. Our guests were so blessed by the work you have put into creating this space...as well as God stunning creation! It was such a huge life (and money) saver to be able to use the decorations that you have collected through the years as well. Thank you for anticipating our needs that day and being pivotal to the smooth flow of one of our BEST DAYS EVER.

Stonewall could not have been a better experience for our wedding! The staff is extremely friendly! Especially Drew, he answered all of our calls and texts very promptly and thoroughly! Our ceremony and wedding could not have gone better. Stonewall provides a rustic, chic, fairytale forest wedding venue. It is also on a lake and has a gorgeous prairie so you get a lot of different scenery for one place!! If you want your ceremony outdoors, this is the place to have it! Stonewall even has plenty of decorations already set up so all you really need on your part is your florals! Our wedding was exactly what we had dreamed about and better. They have sound systems completely set up outside and inside the barn if you choose to have your dance there. We had live music during our ceremony and it sounded amazing! I honestly think we got a bargain for how amazing everything turned out! If you want your day to go smoothly and look beautiful and whimsy, this is the place to get married! You can really trust Stonewall and its workers with your very special day! Would recommend to anyone!

Stonewall Farms was the perfect venue for our special day. We fell in love with it from the first time that we saw it on pinterest to our first site visit. Drew was a pleasure to work with throughout the entire process and was so flexible with us and our vision for the day. Any question that we had was answered promptly and our desires were accommodated for above and beyond. We couldn't be more pleased that Stonewall is a crucial part to our forever memory. Stonewall does all the work for you and makes for the least stressful experience. If you are ready to wow your guests, book this venue!

If you are looking for your rustic, perfect fairytale wedding, Stonewall Farms is the venue for you. The experience was amazing! Everyone was so helpful on the day of our wedding! I loved that the venue was already so beautiful that you hardly needed any decorations to bring besides center pieces for the table! It was so convenient to have all the tables, chairs and cloths already in your package price along with all the beautiful chandelier's and lighting all over the entire farm. We couldn't have dreamed of a better place to have our wedding. The memories will be cherished forever!

Stonewall Farms is a hidden gem! I was looking for a venue with a wooded feel, and Stonewall Farms gave us so much more! Drew is amazing to work with - he went above and beyond on our wedding day to assist with everything that needed to be done and set up on the property. Such a respectful and selfless person to work with! The venue itself is stunning - a beautiful wooded ceremony site, a comfortable and rustic barn with great dancing acoustics, and a gorgeous outdoor tent we used for our social hour. Even the bridal suite was far above our expectations! Would HIGHLY recommend this venue.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
