The last spot is our Extended Reception, giving you 3.5 hours of fun and festivities! Learn more about this date’s Extended Reception offerings here.

 

Venue

Built as the machine shop for the Pillsbury A Mill, this historic industrial space has been a fixture in the St. Anthony Main neighborhood since 1916. Carefully restored in 2016, the Machine Shop now hosts private events of all sizes. All tables, chairs, and lounge furniture are included. Parking is available in the adjacent pay ramp or nearby metered streets.

Our award-winning team is here to bring your vision to life. With a commitment to unique designs and flawlessly executed weddings, we take pride in crafting unforgettable experiences. From a stylish ceremony backdrop to thoughtful details throughout the space, every element will reflect your personal style and our dedication to excellence.

Floral

Studio C Floral is known for their innovative, artistic floral design. According to owner Christi, “with flowers and plants as our medium, the options to create and invent are endless.” We are here for that! Personal flowers are included for the couple, additional corsages, boutonnieres, and bouquets can be added if desired.
