After pouring over websites and my Twin Cities Bridal Association Book- I've narrowed down the reception options- now to get the fiance on board. (Too many options can be overwhelming for some to process- hence all the footwork)
Colonial Church- we are members here
Atlas Grill - Downtown Minneapolis - free valet parking, no cake cutting fees- they pride themselves on no hidden costs- and because they're awesome- you can use any of what they have on hand free of charge- no nickel and diming you for every knife, spook, fork, each plate or drinking goblet- awesome
Minnetonka Country Club- they have currently cut the cost of their receptions... I wonder if it's good for reservations made for future months or just this fall- the wording is kind of funny on their webpage.
Elsie's Restaurant, Bar and Bowling Alley- Northeast Minneapolis- There's no room rental charge and the food and drink minimum is only $2500. We'd have to cut our guest list a bit- basically limit the +1s- so it wouldn't be too terribly tragic.
Olympic Hills Country Club- Eden Prairie - it seats enough people- the food and drink minimum for the main dining room - which seats 230- is only $4500 and the rental is only $475. I can stomach those numbers. I may have to speak with them about their confetti restriction... kidding of course.

Hey - I'm also looking at Minnetonka CC and Olympic Hills CC! FYI - the Minnetonka CC rates are good for 2010 (yay!).
ReplyDeleteHave you decided on where your reception will be yet? I'm thinking Minnetonka may be a bit too far from the church we'll be at.
