  Mill City Museum is booked through D'Amico so they do the catering if you use the space. I loved D'Amico and they were wonderful to work with and did a great job. Mill City was an absolutely beautiful space and we had a wonderful ceremony and reception. I was told that the space was a more difficult one to work with for a wedding (there is a large upper space for dinner and then a lower portion for a dance floor and bar plus an outdoor deck and exterior rail) but I thought that everything worked out perfectly. It was a little tough for everyone to see the first dance, but tons of people liked being able to take a break on the deck or grab and drink and then go back to dancing. We could not have been happier with our venue choice!!!

  It took my husband and I ages and ages to find venue that combined the feeling of being inside and out, that also didn't cost us an arm and a leg. Mill City was perfect right from the beginning. We met with Amy who would become our wedding consultant. She was a total rock star with helping us with all things wedding related. The day of we didn't have to do anything because everything was taken care of by them. Mill City is a truly beautiful and unique venue and I'd recommend it to anyone.

  The Mill City Museum is a beautiful place to have your wedding and reception. The courtyard is open-air, framed by the crumbling ruins of an old, burned-out mill, and you can see the Mississippi River from inside the courtyard. It creates a regal and unique setting. The museum staff works well with D'Amico, which is the event planner/caterer who services the museum. I can't say enough about how beautiful this is. (the price range refers to the actual rental price of the space, not the catering price, which is higher)

  This is the best, most unique venue in the Twin Cities. Everyone commented about how much they liked it. It really was beautiful for an old, burned down flower mill :)

  The Mill City Museum was a fantastic venue for a wedding. The "All inclusive" nature of the event was excellent. The catering was amazing, the décor was inviting and stylish. I will certainly recommend this venue to anyone asking for a recommendation!

  We received so many compliments about this venue! The staff at D'Amico were very easy to work with and made sure all the details were taken care of. The food was delicious - many of our guests went out the way to tell us how much they liked our cake (banana chocolate)! I highly recommend both this venue and this catering company. Specifically Jessica K. from D'Amico - she was wonderful!

  This venue is incredible and beautiful. Working with Amy from D'amico catering throughout the whole process was also great. She is flexible and a great planner. The venue messed up my ceremony seating and had multiple people out to help change the seating within minutes. You won't be disappointed if you can afford to go with this venue. Ask to get photos on the sky deck, we did this little known secret at sundown between the ceremony and reception, and I can't wait to see the photos!

  Great venue for 100 guests, the courtyard is perfect for a ceremony.

  Gorgeous Downtown Minneapolis Venue

  Gorgeous venue with both indoor and outdoor ceremony options, which was important to us as we very much wanted an outdoor wedding that had a good indoor backup option. Amy M. from D’Amico was a joy to work with. She was responsive to our emails, answered all of our questions, and made sure we were getting what we requested. She did a tour with us when we were first looking at venues then another tour with me and my mom (who was from out of town) later in the planning process to help us bring the wedding vision to life. The food was excellent. We did a buffet set up, and everything was hot the entire time. Our guests were raving about the food at the wedding, and we were still getting comments on how good it was several weeks later. The team even made sure my husband and I had our own plate of the hand-passed appetizers, which was a nice touch! Highly recommend the white cake with raspberry studded white mousse - my husband and I went back for seconds and thirds later during the dancing portion of the night because it was so tasty. One thing to watch which felt a little shady - the food/beverage prices were at one price point when we initially signed our contract (about 15 months pre-wedding), but had gone up by the time we actually paid the final bill and you get stuck with the price increase. 4.5 stars.

  We had our ceremony and reception at Mill City Museum, and couldn't be happier. It is such a beautiful venue, right on the river by the Stone Arch Bridge. Mill City exclusively caters through D'Amico and Sons, so you don't have a choice of catering companies. That being said, D'Amico has top notch food and highly experienced coordinators who helped ensure our wedding was perfect!

  Overall the venue was great. Our planner was good but not very responsiveness. He caused us stress the week leading up to the event. Fortunately everything went really well the night of the event. D'Amico catering did a nice job with our ethnic cuisine (Indian, Thai, Italian).

  Horrible Venue Do not Recommend them

  Mill City Museum took our 5K deposit and refused to work w us on moving the wedding due to pandemic concerns.
  
  They were the only vendor/venue that wouldn’t be accommodating. Worst experience. Safe your money and time. Don’t book with them.
