About

For a full-service venue on the beach of Lake Superior, consider the Superior Shores Resort in Two Harbors, Minnesota. The expansive ballroom and over a mile of Lake Superior coastline will delight couples and guests. Relax and savor the stunning scenery as the resort staff attends to the planning and implementation of the wedding day festivities.

Facilities and Capacity
A feature of Superior Shores Resort is the access to a beach wedding ceremony along the shore of Lake Superior. Guests can relish as they view the exchange of vows surrounded by the expanse of Lake Superior. Following the ceremony, host up to 300 guests in the newly renovated, 3,700-square-foot ballroom. Doors of the ballroom open directly onto the patio -- an ideal space for a cocktail hour or socializing. Windows that line the ballroom create a close connection to the natural elegance of the 60 acres of north woods forest just outside the ballroom’s reach. Two fireplaces within the ballroom add to the quiet, rustic and inviting quality of the space. The expansive lawn of this venue is the ideal space for socializing and lawn games on the day of the wedding and for the couples and guests who choose to lodge and stay a spell at the resort.

Exceeded our expectations

Superior Shores was everything we had hoped for and more! Beautiful setting on the lake for our ceremony, a large ballroom that is set up perfectly for a bigger group, and many hotel rooms for guests to stay in. The staff was accommodating, and the food was fantastic.
We had our rehearsal dinner in the ballroom Friday and set up the night before. Everything was so organized. I keep saying our wedding was perfect because it truly exceeded our expectations. We are so happy we chose this resort as our venue.

The resort and staff at superior shores follow suit with the name of the place, SUPERIOR LOCATION AND SERVICE. My wife and I were able to contact the staff and plan our wedding down to the last detail. The staff and resort were more than accommodating to our guests and our individual needs. The food was spectacular- and the service was top quality. I can not imagine us having our reception anywhere else. The venue was beautiful and clean, the ball room was set up for us down to the last detail. The patio was set up to accommodate our guests comfortably and there were even lawn games displayed for family fun! The wedding coordinator and resort manger were in contact with me every time I beckoned within ours of my question. They were present throughout the night to help us coordinate the cake, dinner, music, and dance and were always helpful with advice and were very respectful of our wishes. After the wedding the staff nicely assisted in keeping our belongings from the night before organized and safe until we were able to retrieve them. The venue, food, and service from the staff were nothing short of spectacular. I have heard from at least half of our guests that our reception was one of the most beautiful and well done receptions they had ever attended. Thank you so much for making this day one of the most wonderful days of our lives!!! - Sarah and Amy

We love superior shores and wanted to share some pictures that captured the outdoor beauty. There was nothing better than having your wedding next to the crashing waves of Lake Superior.
