We know the drill.
It’s 10 days out from your dream wedding, and you can't help but refresh the extended weather forecast over and over again…
Thankfully, there’s a way to plan an outdoor wedding in Minnesota without having to stress about the weather.
Legacy Hill Farm’s wedding venue provides a gorgeous backdrop for weddings - rain or shine. Read on to discover how we help our couples make rainy wedding days magical.
Two “Plan A” Ceremony Options
With two “Plan A” ceremony options - (1) the outdoor amphitheater and (2) the indoor pavilion - couples are able to relax knowing that their dream outdoor wedding experience can exist at Legacy Hill Farm regardless of the weather forecast.
01. Outdoor Amphitheater Ceremony Site
Our outdoor amphitheater-style ceremony location provides gorgeous countryside views, a beautiful stone aisle, grand entrance doors, a statement arch, custom-built benches, surrounding trees, a garden, and paved paths that invite all of your guests into the space with ease.
The outdoor ceremony location is the most popular choice for where our couples host their wedding ceremony. However, every year we get several couples that choose our indoor ceremony option as their top pick!
02. Indoor Pavilion Ceremony Site
Our indoor pavilion ceremony location provides stunning views of the countryside through giant custom-built floor-to-ceiling glass doors that wrap all the way around the space. It includes a feature wall that holds a stunning fireplace, mantel, lighting, and giant white doors that can be pulled shut or slid open to reveal gorgeous greenery and trees.
Nature does not have to be excluded from an indoor ceremony. Our indoor ceremony location provides incredible natural lighting and beautiful natural views so that you don’t have to feel stuck inside. An indoor ceremony at Legacy Hill Farm provides an intimate romantic ambience.
At Legacy Hill Farm both ceremony locations are included in your venue rental.
It is such a gift to plan an outdoor wedding knowing that you have two “Plan A” options for your ceremony that both provide an elegant outdoor experience, gorgeous lighting, beautiful photos, and incredible views of the countryside. At Legacy Hill Farm couples do not have to worry about a rainy wedding day plan. Our spaces were designed to host a beautiful wedding regardless of the forecast.
And as the ultimate added bonus, our couples do not have to monitor the weather on their own. In fact, they don’t even have to open a weather app. The Legacy Hill Farm team are experts in knowing and using the best weather apps and technology so that our couples can stay focused on what matters most. Our venue managers, housekeeping, parking, set up and clean up teams, and security all communicate and work seamlessly with your day of coordinator to build out a customized weather plan in real-time. With over 600+ weddings of experience (each with their very own weather forecast) our team knows how to stay relaxed and provide incredible insight, options, peace of mind, and wisdom into the weather plan of your unique wedding day. Leave it to us. Don’t worry about it. We’ve got this.
A Remarkable Guest Experience - Even On A Rainy Day
As you think about the possibility of rain on your wedding day, I want you to take in two perspectives. One, as yourself, being the couple getting married, and two, as a wedding guest who is attending your rainy day wedding.
On a rainy weather day at Legacy Hill Farm, wedding guests enter the property on paved paths and are invited into multiple dry venue spaces. Guests are delighted to discover that they can still enjoy beautiful views of the countryside even on a rainy day. This was really important to us when we designed our indoor pavilion ceremony option at Legacy Hill Farm.
We hate the feeling of being trapped in a dark room and being cut off from nature. Our design team strategized and poured themselves into how to keep stunning views and a deep connection with nature throughout an event, even on a rainy day. What they came up with is a breathtaking and intimate experience that can only be found at Legacy Hill Farm.
On a rainy wedding day at Legacy Hill Farm, you still get to experience:
360-degree views of nature with giant glass doors surrounding you
An intimate seated indoor ceremony experience enhanced by floor-to-ceiling windows and doors that invite natural light and nature in
Beautiful custom lighting to provide you with gorgeous photos of your indoor ceremony
Additionally, guests are delighted to find that paved paths weave through the venue so that even on the rainiest wedding days, their shoes stay clean.
As the couple getting married on a rainy day, you get to enjoy an intimate indoor ceremony experience that still emphasizes the beauty of nature, still allows your guests to gather with ease, and still provides you with gorgeous photos.
We can’t control the weather, but we can control our environment, our attitude, and our support system.
You can celebrate with ease knowing your wedding day is set up for success at Legacy Hill Farm – rain or shine.
Could it rain on your wedding day? There’s a chance.
Does it have to dampen your celebration? Not at all.
With You, For You.
