Why people choose the Minikahda Club for their wedding
It is enough to choose a Minikahda Club wedding for the setting alone. This gorgeous private club on Lake Bde Maka Ska is just out of downtown and feels in a world of its own. The elegant range of ballrooms, outdoor terrace, and grounds make this a gorgeous choice for couples planning their weddings in Minneapolis.
Photographing in the spaces of the Minikahda Club
From the lobby to the ballrooms, you will find many spaces perfect for portraits and documenting special moments. The lobby in particular has a golden glow to it. The upper floors have spaces for getting ready or smaller events.
Outdoors at the Minikahda Club
You might choose, as Allison and Jason did, to have your wedding ceremony on the upper terrace of the Minikahda Club, featuring a view of the Downtown Minneapolis skyline. This is also where they hosted cocktail hour, and again a gorgeous late night spot for photos. The rest of the grounds can be accessed for weddings when not being actively used by club members.

Details from Allison and Jason’s wedding featuring travel and joy at the Minikahda Club
A journey is a person in itself; no two are alike. And all plans, safeguards, policing, and coercion are fruitless.
We find that after years of struggle that we do not take a trip; a trip takes us.
-John Steinbeck
I love this quote from Steinbeck, because as much as you would like to plan a trip (or plan a marriage), you cannot plan all the outcomes.
You can plan a wedding, and intend things. But ultimately the best stories and the best marriages are made by a combination of planning and flexibility.
Allison and Jason travel much, they clearly love much, and they are headed in the same direction with a lot of well wishes.
Their Minikahda Club wedding was on one of the warmest days of spring. Luckily, the Minikahda is both air conditioned and gorgeous on the inside, so we played in their lush lobby for some portraits before their rooftop wedding ceremony overlooking the Minneapolis Skyline. At the end of the night, we took some more photos out there with the evening falling over the buildings.
