New wedding indoor/outdoor reception site in Anoka, MN - Waterfallview Events
The very friendly Colleen Burrs from Waterfallview Events wedding recepton hall called to introduce me to their new wedding reception and ceremony site in Anoka, Minnesota. I don’t usually review wedding reception sites where I haven’t officiated, but Waterfallview Events is new, and they are unique in several different ways.
Waterfall View Events gets its name because it has an amazing city park with a waterfall right in the back of their reception hall. The only way to get to the waterfall is through their reception site, so it’s very private, and it’s just gorgeous. The view of the wedding cer
emony site at night is like nothing I’ve ever heard of, with lights underneath the waterfall!
Unique advantage # 1:
- Outdoor ceremony, indoor reception. If you rent the Waterfallview Events wedding reception hall in Anoka, Minnesota is that you can have an outdoor wedding - yet have your wedding reception right there, and your guests don’t have to travel to a second spot. Their rental fee is $1500 for a Saturday in the summer, and there is no minimum food or beverage tab because you can bring in your own catering.
Unique advantage # 2:
- You can bring your own catering and alcohol
Yes, that’s right - Waterfallview Events is one of those rare Minnesota wedding reception halls that allows you to bring in your own food and beverages. Most wedding reception sites in MN require you to either use their own catering, or at the very least, insist you use a licensed caterer. I’ve only heard of one other wedding reception hall in the Minneapolis area that will allow you to bring in your own food and alcohol (Celebration Hall in Minneapolis), but that site is not nearly as large, and does not have an outdoor wedding ceremony option.Note: This option to bring in your own food and beverages is not only attractive to couples who want to save money on their open bar, but it’s also helpful for the East African community in Minnesota, who need to prepare their own food.
Unique advantage #3:
- This Minnesota wedding reception site is open until 1:00 am. I’ve never heard of a wedding reception hall staying open so late - usually midnight is the mandatory end time.
Final unique advantage:
- The Waterfallview wedding reception hall is new, so there are still Saturdays available in 2008. Amazing! Every other reception site in the Twin Cities metro area is booked up for Saturdays in the summer and fall of this year - and now that it’s open, Waterfallview will book up fast!
The event manager, Colleen Burrs, is very friendly and accomodating, and can be reached at 763-477-1919.
Warmly,
