One of my favorite northern Minnesota wedding venues is the BWB Ranch in Laporte, MN. The barn is made with cedar beams from the Akeley Railroad (which was demolished in 2010). That means the trees are from the middle of the 1700’s! The barn was built in 2011 for the purpose of work, storage, gardening, and chickens. When the barn became a wedding venue, they revamped the chicken coop into a bridal suite! How awesome is that!? Don’t worry, there isn’t any trace of chickens! π Julia and Brad, the owners, also built and stained all of the wood harvest tables for wedding receptions! In addition to the barn, they have a beautiful outdoor ceremony site, a fireplace, and a lot of photo spots! From fields to woodsy areas, this venue is a photographer’s playground! If you’re looking for a rustic wedding venue in northern Minnesota, I highly recommend checking out BWB Ranch! View Char and Adam’s wedding at BWB Ranch here!
