What if you need a very small weddding site, for perhaps two to fifty guests? A restaurant can be the perfect choice.

I've chosen the following intimate wedding sites in the Minneapolis and St Paul, MN area for their beauty, class, and their experience hosting small wedding ceremonies and receptions.

Photos, site information, and reviews for:

Forepaugh's Restaurant in St Paul is very used to accommodating small wedding ceremonies and receptions	On the top left is the outdoor, 2nd story porch at Forepaugh's Restaurant, which is perfect for a warm-weather cocktail hour

Forepaugh's Restaurant

For a very small wedding (often less than 10 guests) I highly recommend the St Paul mansion/restaurant Forepaugh's, which will rent you a small room for less than $50.  You can have the wedding in the one of their gorgeous little rooms, with the reception to follow.  The price stays low, because even though the food is about $25/person, you're only feeding a few guests.  Also, if you want an outdoor wedding, you have the option of renting next-door Irvine Park from the St Paul Parks department for about $50, and then having the reception afterwards at the restaurant.  Forepaugh's Restaurant in St Paul also allows much larger weddings - groups of 200 can be accommodated on Saturday afternoon until 4:30 pm.  A maximum gathering of 90 guests is available any other time of the week.

WA Frost Restaurant  
WA Frost Restaurant in St Paul has accommodations for small weddings in the Twin Cities.  WA Frost will rent out a small room for little more than the price of the meals.  WA Frost doesn't have space for much larger than 10-15 guests, but a small, intimate wedding and reception works well here.
