Our wedding at Hall of Kings was incredible! We made the decision to change our venue 4 months before our wedding date and we are SO glad we did! Jamie and Serina were amazing to work with, fun, easy-going, knowledgeable, and professional. From the day we met with Jamie and saw the space, I was in love. It was so intimate, cozy, warm and charming. It was exactly what we were looking for. On top of the amazing service from Jamie and Serina, the rest of the staff was fantastic. On the day, the staff were professional, personable, attentive and easy-going, the whole day went off without a hitch. Also, I can’t say enough about the food. The food was absolutely delicious, our guests couldn’t say enough! The quality was unmatched. We would definitely recommend HOK as a wedding or event venue! I’d do it all over again in a heartbeat. Thank you for an incredible day that we will never forget!

Buckle up, this is going to be the five-est five-star review of all time. I can’t possibly say enough good things about my wedding at Hall of Kings. For the rental price, I think it’s pretty much impossible to find a better wedding experience in Minneapolis.

Let’s start with the basics. It’s a beautiful space that requires very little additional décor to make it feel incredibly special. We had 109 guests and it was just about the perfect size for that group (I wouldn’t recommend it for more than about 120). Sam, the venue coordinator we worked with was very responsive and helpful. Everyone we ever spoke to was very relaxed and flexible we never felt pressured to make certain decisions. Based on other reviews, we were very excited about the food and it didn’t disappoint. Hands down the best wedding meal I’ve ever had. Everyone loved the specialty drinks too!

The price is incredibly reasonable for what they offer. It’s a one-stop shop in terms of the bar and catering, so you don’t have to wrangle outside bartenders or catering services. You need to arrange your own décor setup if you bring in your own, but that’s standard across most wedding venues, and HOK provides votive candles as well as all tables, chairs, and tableware and they set up everything they own themselves. The Hepburn suite was also gorgeous!!

If you’re thinking about bringing your own music to your wedding and skipping the DJ, this is the spot for you. They have a great sound system with microphones all ready to go and a soundproofed stage for the dance floor. All we had to do was plug my phone into an aux cord and people literally danced all night. The dancefloor also has alternating colored lighting that makes it feel like a party!

Beyond that, the staff went out of their way to make everything easy and fun for us. The venue coordinator we’d been working with transferred to a different venue a month before our wedding, and I was very worried about being assigned someone new. But our day-of coordinator Shane was the MVP of the day!! He let us move our cocktail hour indoors into the empty venue next door when it looked like it would be too cold to host it outdoors. He made setup incredibly smooth for my vendors. He arranged to have sparkling wine and a cooler of water brought to the bridal suite as soon as my bridesmaids and I arrived. He was unobtrusive during the cocktail hour and reception while still helping me make announcements and set up the music. We hadn’t arranged table drink service, but servers made sure that we at the head table had everything we needed all night. Seriously just incredible, incredible service way beyond what I could have imagined!! These people genuinely care about making your day the best it can possibly be, and I know for a fact that that isn’t the case at every venue.

I can’t recommend Hall of Kings highly enough. Deserves 10 stars!! Thank you for the best day of my life!!

Our winter wedding in the Hall of Kings was the perfect venue- cozy & personal - and fit our personalities so well! We heard only awesome compliments about the chef and the food (the steak - everyone was in love!), the cupcakes, and the amazing servers. We opted to use their patio space for a cozy fire and a s'more & hot cocoa bar. It was a special touch and made even our California guests happy! The individuals who helped keep the fire going during the night were saints- their enthusiasm exuded even when they looked so cold!

We also used the gorgeous bridal suite to get ready - it was dreamy! With beautiful couches, chairs, and wonderful natural lighting and a view of the river, we could not have asked for a better place to get ready and spend time with friends before the event. I would highly recommend it.

Lastly, Jamie was fantastic to work with- her effort, time, and patience helped us feel at ease and she never judged any of our ideas. We are so grateful that we got to enjoy a wonderful night with our friends and family in a perfect Minneapolis spot!
