Camrose Hill is an absolute DREAM! When we toured this venue, we knew immediately this was where we wanted to have our wedding. Cindie and her staff are super flexible, great to work with, and very professional. Cindie is such a talented floral designer, and brought to life the wedding of my dreams. I was so appreciative that she was even willing to whip up some florals for the head table and hair pins for me so quickly on the morning of the wedding! We had such an amazing day, it was so special and all of our guests told us how beautiful the venue was. I cannot recommend Camrose Hill enough!

I also wanted to extend a sincere THANK YOU to the both of you for making our event the most perfect day we could have asked for. The flowers were absolutely beautiful and everything we had hoped for. The people who put together the Crosby Hotel space made it look so lovely and we got so many compliments on how beautiful it looked. This new plan for our wedding was obviously not what we had originally planned for but we are so glad that it happened the way that it did because Camrose Hill is the wedding space that most can only dream of! You both had a big part in making that day so very special for us, so thank you again for everything you did! All the Best.

Camrose Hill is the outdoor setting for your wedding that you have been dreaming of and searching for. The grounds are kept impeccable and the flowers were beginning to bloom which added a beautiful accent throughout. We used the “Fairy Glen” for our ceremony, which had a wonderful exposed branch that framed the space. The bright green leaves against the woods and trellis made of branches, accented by the occasional birds chirping, created a peaceful and serene spot to exchange our vows.
For the reception, the space in front of the main wedding chapel and spreading to the fire pit was ideal and the afternoon and early evening sun created a lovely place to socialize. The tent for the dinner and dance was comfortable and easily fit our wedding of 130. The facilities were clean and very usable, she even had ideas to add touches to the men’s and ladies’ areas too. Overall, the greatest attribute to Camrose Hill is Cindy and her ability to help create the look and feel you are looking for.
Our aesthetic was a natural, simple and organic outdoor wedding. Cindy had beautiful ideas and floral touches that we would never have been able to think of. For instance, simple eucalyptus and various mixed greens for table runners, a sprig of rosemary at each place setting, succulents for boutonnieres, and ferns for the isle. We found it challenging to even see beyond the already beautifully landscaped grounds, but her expertise enhanced all of it even further. Camrose could easily feel as rustic, elegant, whimsical or as simple as you would like. Another advantage to the space is the variety of places for photographs. There are wooded settings, a nearby field at the top of the parking area, the garden, the cottage and the barn; all of which make very for timeless and classic photos. We couldn’t recommend Camrose Hill as a wedding venue enough. There is a reason it has been voted one of Minnesota’s best year after year.

We could not have dreamed of a more beautiful location for our wedding. Camrose Hill was absolutely stunning and every detail was perfect. Cindie was nice to work with preparation and provided great advice throughout. I only wish we could do it all again!

We had the MOST amazing wedding at Camrose Hill. Working with them, Mary, in particular, to coordinate everything and answer all my last minute questions was easy and emails were always timely. The venue itself is absolutely gorgeous and exactly what I was looking for for my wedding. We got so many compliments and our guests really loved it. Having the cottage to get ready in was perfect – a relaxing, lovely space to get your hair & makeup done, get dressed, store extra stuff, take some photos… even take a break or use the private bathroom during the reception. It really all was just perfect.
Camrose has a list of required vendors, which was just fine with me – I was not excited to have to do so much research to find vendors. You may be able to find vendors for lower prices, but it was definitely worth it to us having the vendors be familiar with Camrose, their location, staff, and policies. Made the day flawless with no complications in that regard.
Camrose flowers are also the best. I had so much fun working with Cindie at my consultation, and she brought my vision to life flawlessly. When the bouquets & bouts were delivered to us in the cottage while getting ready – that was when I knew it was all *actually happening* and I was in awe of her gorgeous floral design. Definitely one of my favorite details of the day. I am so glad we chose Camrose as our venue and am very thankful to their staff. I would not hesitate to recommend Camrose to anyone – we had an easy, beautiful, natural, magical, wonderful day with them!

My husband and I were married at Camrose on 9/9/16 and could not have had a more beautiful day. Cindie, Mary, and Bobette were so wonderful to work with, flexible and accommodating. The venue is one of a kind and it was perfect for the vibe we were going for – outdoor, laid back, casual and ceremony and reception in the same location. Cindie worked with us to create beautiful flowers as well and allowed us to bring our own centerpieces for the cocktail hour. We received so many compliments from guests and couldn’t have imagined our wedding day without Camrose.

I loved Camrose the moment I saw the venue online and knew I was supposed to have my wedding there. Keep in mind, the address above is for Cindie’s (the owner) flower shop in Stillwater where she is a florist – but we also had our wedding at Camrose Hill Flower Farm which is on her personal property. The venue price which includes the entire property for the entire day exceeded any other venue in price and value that we looked at. Cindie, and her assistant, Mary, were amazing to work with.
The venue was magical and our guests couldn’t stop raving about the property. It rained on and off the day of our wedding and her staff was on point ensuring the tent was set up properly and the water didn’t put a damper on the reception. Cindie, being a florist, is also contracted to do your flowers and she pulled through a hundredfold! She took my vision and made it perfection. My bridal bouquet and the bridesmaid bouquets were STUNNING.
The table centerpieces were lovely. Her prices were surprisingly reasonable for the high quality and she had the perfect vases and candles for me to rent (also for a great price!) to fill in on the tables as needed. I would recommend this venue to any bride who is hoping to achieve the perfect vintage/rustic/garden wedding!
"Camrose Hill was a Most Wonderful Venue for me Neice's Fairytale Wedding!! It was so beautiful! All the little details were beautiful! The owner really looked out for The Wedding Party and Guests. I took so many pics of the Flowers everywhere. Even the restrooms were cool! This Venue is worth taking time to check out. You won't be sorry." ~Justina
