The Perfect Place for our Perfect Day
Kellerman's Event Center made our wedding perfect!
When we first began searching for a wedding venue two years ago, Kellerman's was already on our radar. However, it took exactly one meeting with Kristin for us to fall in love with the place. The style is unique, the location is excellent, but what really set it apart was the structure and guidance that Kristin provided. From the first step through the last dance, she gave us the security and confidence we needed to have a (nearly) stress-free wedding!
Listening to others talk about the stress of planning their wedding, especially some of the issues they had day-of, makes me so thankful we chose Kellerman's because everything went so smoothly. In fact, three weeks later at my best friend's wedding, she mentioned multiple times how much she wished she had Kristin as their event coordinator!
From their recommended vendors (each of which we loved), to the custom cocktails (shoutout to The Alchemist, which we already loved and were somewhat regulars at before our engagement), to the pictures in the fairy garden, Kellerman's provided so many small but important details that culminated in our perfect wedding.
I literally cannot recommend them enough!Kellerman's Event Center's reply:
Dan & Hayley ~ we are so happy that you could enjoy your wedding day (and the planning for it) with little to no stress. It has been amazing getting to know you (and your family and friends)! I'm still in awe of the fantastic ways that you incorporated your favorite color (purple) into the details of your wedding day! We love that we continue to see you in The Alchemist for date nights too!!!
Thank you for sharing your love and your wedding day with us! -

Loved everything about Kellerman’s!
Kellerman’s was the first venue we visited. We immediately fell in love with it as it was exactly what we envisioned. From the retro and vintage decor to the beautifully lit cafe lights. On top of that, Kristin made our visit so personalized to each of us that it was literally emotional. We visited other venues just so that we did and ultimately, there was no comparison.
Kristin made it clear from the beginning that at Kellerman’s, they are a family and it’s important for them to include us in that family. And that’s exactly what she and everyone at Kellerman’s did.
Aside from Kristin’s professionalism and expertise, she is the sweetest. No question was a dumb question to her. She helped guide us through all the many obstacles and possible scenarios that could happen. And when we got to the big day, she was exactly where she said she would be: right there with us for anything we needed.
Kellerman’s is clearly a beautiful venue but like we told Kristin on our wedding day, we chose Kellerman’s because of her. From day 1, she immediately welcomed us into the family. She showed us how much she cared for us and especially her job. She has a beautiful soul and a huge heart. We could never thank her enough.
Highly recommend! Great location- great drinks- beautiful venue. Can’t go wrong. And Kristin’s puppy is just the cherry on top!Kellerman's Event Center's reply:
Joua & Garrett ~ again with making me cry happy tears! Thank you for stepping in to our family. I am so glad that you felt as though we cared for YOU from the beginning......and there is no end. I look forward to watching your adventures together.......Love you both! Kristin
The Kellerman's team thanks you! We all loved celebrating with your amazing family and friends! And your bridesmaids creativity in the centerpieces was fabulous. The perfect "vibe" for Kellerman's! -

Linda A. Sent on 11/05/2020Outstanding venue and wedding coordinator and owner!
Our daughter and son in law were married at Kellermans on 10/24/20. They first scheduled their wedding at a Mexico destination venue in April 2020. When CoVid hit we knew it needed rescheduling which we did for 11/5/2020. July came and it did not look promising for the destination wedding in November. We checked out Kellermans as a potential back up for a venue in MN. The bride and groom along with us fell in love with the venue and Kristen Cranmer, the wedding coordinator. She went above and beyond in so many ways to make the 10/24/20 wedding date happen for them. It was beautiful and even more so than we imagined. Everything went perfectly and even though it snowed that week (it is 2020 after all!) our small group of guests all made it and we celebrated heartily. Some of the best things about Kellermans:
1. Kristen!!
2. Gorgeous brides room
3. Unique grooms room
4. Eclectic decor and event center room converts very nicely from ceremony to reception
5. Fun parlor for small group event and license signing
6. Back bar area separate from reception area
7. Iron arbor you can decorate to your desire
8. Amazing entrance staircase for bridal party
9. AV set up for you to have a DJ or you can use your iPhone etc to stream your music
10. Outdoor patio and garden alley
It’s the perfect venue and we love the Alchemist bar attached! Thank you to Kristen and owner Terry and all the staff that helped make it THE BEST DAY!

Kellermans is beautiful, and the event coordinator is fantastic! Would recommend 100%
Kellermans is the perfect place to get married! It’s beautiful! We didn’t need many decorations as it’s beauty stands on its own! Kristen, our wedding coordinator was detailed and knowledgeable. She worked with us every strep of the way and went above and beyond to ease our minds and help us with anything we needed. She was prompt with questions I had and communicated well. She was very knowledgeable of the vendors in the area and helped communicate with them. During the wedding she ensured to communicate with vendors about timing (we had Donitellis for dinner- delicious, and studio 220 photography- super awesome!) Schedules moved around quite a bit due to couples rescheduling their wedding but she was flexible and kept communicating with us! She allowed us to have drinks in the parlor after the rehearsal when the bar wasn’t open yet. The business really goes above and beyond for its patrons!
The day of the wedding was extremely smooth and easy. She kept us on time without rushing. At one point she realized I didn’t have my drink during toasts and got me one. She really looks at the details. She assisted with set up and take down and had wonderful ideas! This was a small Covid wedding and had a great balance of ensuring everyone was safe and having a great time!
The bar service was great! Check out the Alchemist bar... beautiful and great for wedding photos! Also, the most delicious mixed cocktails! A wonderful balcony! Gorgeous brides room and unique grooms room. Brides room has lots of space with plenty of places to do hair/makeup and great lighting! A beautiful full length mirror for pictures. Take a look at the beautiful pictures I. Their website and you will fall in love! The grooms room had awesome decor...a motorcycle, pool table, bearskin chairs. So cool! The owner made many of the decorations, doors, etc himself and gave us the grand tour when we first saw the space! Check our the brewery attached—great beer!
We cannot say enough great things about Kellermans! We really got royal service and so glad that we were able to get married there! -

Morgan M. Sent on 10/06/2020Amazing wedding venue
Kellerman's is such a beautiful and intimate venue to be married and celebrate in. From the moment we stepped foot in here we knew it was the right place for us. Not only is the inside simply amazing ( you don't need much decor to decorate it) they have a quaint garden and a patio too. The staff here is wonderful! The owners are very down to earth and friendly. Our event coordinator was Amy and she is amazing! She was by our side as we had to postpone our wedding due to COVID-19. We rescheduled for 9/20/20 and she was with us every step. She answered all my questions and was prompt on the million emails I sent her. She also gave us peace of mind and reminded us so often what our wedding was about- our union and love. She kept us calm when we needed it and provided us with encouragement through this crazy 2020 year. On our big day she was on top of everything, we had so many people complement kellermans and Amy at what a wonderful job they all did. I wish we could replay our wedding day over and over. Words can't even come close for how much gratitude and thanks we have for Kellermans, the owners, and especially Amy! -

Laura F. Sent on 08/11/2021Best place ever with even better people!!
Absolutely the best place to get married!! I was a COVID bride and had my first wedding date cancelled 12 days prior and then rescheduled a total of 4 times. Kristin at Kellerman’s made this tough situation very easy and smooth. If it wasn’t for her I think I would’ve lost my mind!She not only reassured us that everything would be okay but she made the planning process enjoyable. She goes above and beyond in every detail. Kristin communicates very clearly and timely and is outstanding at what she does! Our journey started in April 2020 when we found Kellerman’s and wrapped up in July 2021 but our relationship is not over. We will continue to go back to the Alchemist to see Kristin and Terry who made our wedding so special. After our 200 person wedding we only heard such great things! Everyone loved Kellerman’s and thought it was the most beautiful place. They also mentioned how great of a flow the night had and that is all due to Kristin’s wonderful planning details and skills. I would go back and choose Kellerman’s every single time. Even though our day turned out different than planned there is not a single thing I would change about it. I would recommend Kellerman’s to every single person and I promise you- you will fall in love just as we did!! -

Andy V. Sent on 11/06/2019Wonderful venue, great staff, lasting impression.
So you know that feeling that you get when you walk into a room? That really good feeling that makes you say "this is the one"? Just know that all of your guests experience that same feeling. As you watch them walk through the door, looking around the room, pointing and smiling and just in awe of where they are...... It's satisfying. That is what you get with Kellerman's Event Center. Rustic charm perfectly balanced with elegance. They clearly knew what they were going for when they designed and decorated this place. And it is fantastic. The open wood ceilings with exposed metal framing really shows well in the wedding pictures. They also just added a parlor downstairs, and expanded the Bridal Suite. We had 12 girls in there comfortably for the 4 hours leading up to the start of the ceremony, so I think it is safe to say that it can accommodate any size bridal party. When shopping for a wedding venue, remember that you are not only choosing a building, but the people that come with it. And these people are fantastic. When you choose Kellerman's, you get a day-of coordinator named Kristin. She is lovely, and was a complete blessing, and a joy to work with. She handled EVERYTHING for us, and worked with our other vendors directly so we didn't have to. She was able to grant every single request that we threw at her. Like I said..... A blessing. What a cool place. While making our rounds during the dinner to greet our guests at their tables, at least one person at every single table commented on what a wonderful place we chose to host our wedding. We had a lot of out of town guests at our wedding because both my wife and myself grew up in other states. We wanted to give our guests memories of a place like Kellerman's. Something they would tell their friends, family, and co-workers about. Kellerman's checks every box. Want to talk affordability? Kellerman's was right in the middle of all of the venues we toured. The bar pricing is fair. The deposit is low. And did I mention how cool this place is? Go see it for yourself. We clearly made the right choice with Kellerman's Event Center, and would recommend to anyone tying the knot. Thank you so much Kristin, Jordy, Terry, and Anne!!Kellerman's Event Center's reply:
Thank you Andy & Bethany! We are so honored to have been able to be a part of your wedding day! You made it so easy to fulfill all of your wishes! -

Jojo Sent on 11/15/2019The perfect venue and staff, seriously, GET MARRIED HERE!
I would literally never get married anywhere else! I've been in the bridal party for over 9 weddings at this point and I have never had a venue and venue coordinator so accommodating, so welcoming, so WONDERFUL! Not to mention how absolutely gorgeous and interesting the space is, we barely had to decorate and all we've heard since the wedding is how gorgeous and seamless it was. Everything was absolutely perfect, Kristen helped us in every stage to make sure we were comfortable, she was running around making everything perfect the day of with a smile on her face. All of her other vendor recommendations were spot on. There aren't words to recommend Kellerman's Event Center enough! I tell everyone, don't go anywhere else, it won't be as stress-free or magical. We were able to customize everything about the bar, have lists on specialty bottles for specific family members, and the signature cocktail made at the Alchemist was INCREDIBLE. I'm serious, get married here.Kellerman's Event Center's reply:
We are so honored to have been a part of your wedding day. I loved your special touches (ie: custom glassware) which made the ballroom absolutely beautiful. Thank you for sharing your recommendation of Kellerman's! -

Kelsey R. Sent on 08/26/2019Beautiful venue with amazing staff that will ensure you have the day you dreamed of!
EVERYTHING I was looking for and more! We had the most perfect day and it wouldn’t be without Amy-our event coordinator at Kellermans. She made sure everything ran smoothly and I just had to show up the day of. Kellermans itself is so unique, vintage, beautiful, etc. We got so many compliments and had the best day ever! The newly renovated bridal room is beautiful as well- so disregard any reviews that say it’s small, they made it way bigger! If you’re looking for a venue that is unique, personal, vintage, great event coordinator, and beautiful... this is your place! -

We had a wonderful experience with Kellerman's. We worked with Amy through the planning process and she was so organized and helpful! She made sure our day was special and exactly how we had planned.
They took care of all of the little details which really took a lot of worry off of our minds. The night went so smoothly and our guests were so impressed with the venue and wondered how we found such a hidden treasure with so much uniqueness and character.
We highly recommend this venue!

Brian Sent on 12/04/2019An Eclectic Mix of Elegance and Fantasy
During the wedding planning process, my (now) wife and I looked at over 20 venues in the Twin Cities metro. None of them were as jaw-dropping, unique, or eclectic as Kellerman's Event Center. It is a beautiful blend of early 1900s architecture mixed with equal elements of steampunk, elegance, and flair that had all of our guests (and ourselves) in awe the entire time. The wonderful mix of spaces (as well as the Alchemist and Big Wood Brewing) gave people options for social hour to mingle and experience different settings. The main hall features a backdrop of brick, with high ceilings and exposed structure, as well as several facades that entertain, but don't distract from the beauty of the room. I can't speak highly enough of how amazing this venue truly is.
But the true gem of Kellerman's Event Center isn't in the design or the building but one person in particular, Kristin. Months later, I still have no idea how she was in ten different places at once. She made sure everything went smoothly and we didn't have think about or do anything on our wedding day but enjoy the day. People asked afterwards if there was anything that went wrong (because of course, SOMETHING inevitably goes awry) and I honestly cannot think of a single thing, and that is thanks to Kristin. From our first meeting with her, we could tell she knew exactly what she's doing and we had nothing to worry about. I cannot thank her enough for everything she did to make our wedding day a success.
If you're thinking about booking Kellerman's for your wedding, stop thinking, and book it right now before someone else does. We, and our (180+) guests, had an incredible experience and have nothing but praise for Kellerman's, Kristin, and their staff. Our family keeps telling us how amazing of a venue it was and how great of a time they had, and I couldn't agree more.

Our wedding was absolutely perfect and everything we imagined it to be! The venue’s decor was stunning and our guests were constantly talking about how beautiful the venue was. Kristin is Kellerman’s event coordinator and she is phenomenal!! She helps the bride and groom from the day they sign with Kellerman’s and is there through the end of the wedding. She keeps everyone on track, is extremely organized, and knows the best ways to keep the wedding day moving smoothly. We strongly believe she is the reason we had no stress on our wedding day!Kellerman's Event Center's reply:
Jeremy & Claire ~
Thank you so much for sharing your thoughts about Kellerman's and our staff. It truly provides couples considering Kellerman's with great insight as to what they can expect for their wedding day!
We are blessed to have you as part of our family!
Our wish for a lifetime of happiness, health, love and amazing adventures together! -

Nicole Sent on 01/14/2019Amazing, fun, affordable venue
Kellerman’s Event Center was the perfect choice for our wedding venue! We truly could not have asked for a better venue or better day! For starters, we received many compliments from our guests on the space itself. It is a very warm and inviting environment and so well decorated already that other than centerpieces there was very little decor needed. That was a huge time and hassle saver for us!
Kristin, the event coordinator, is amazing. She is very organized and helped keep us on track throughout the planning process by having periodic check-in meetings. She was always happy to answer any questions that arose and help make decisions that we didn’t even think about. She also coordinated with our vendors so we didn’t have to worry about a thing. While you do have to select from a list of pre-approved vendors, there are many great options and price ranges to choose from. Donatelli’s, the caterer we chose, was very affordable and absolutely fabulous.
Kellerman’s is also great for a wedding in any season. We had a winter wedding, and we loved that this venue allowed for many cool and unique indoor photo opportunities. There was also plenty of parking available for guests. Kellerman's also has a beautiful garden in the alley that is decorated for each season so no need to worry about it looking bare or sparse.
We had our wedding ceremony and reception here and it was perfect for both. There is plenty of space for guests, and even though the tables for reception had to stay set up before the ceremony in the back, it looked very normal as they were all decorated for the dinner already so it just looked like additional decor more than anything. During the room flip, guests are escorted to a bar area for cocktail hour. This is a smaller area, and some guests mentioned they were warm in there— that is an extremely minor point, though, and the whole room flip process took less than an hour. Also, if the weather had permitted, there is additional space on an outdoor balcony for guests during this time.
We rented the bridal suite and highly recommend doing so, as it gives you an additional two hours of rental time as well as a great place for the bride and bridesmaids to keep their things and get ready. The mirrors and decor in there make it a great photo op! The new groom’s room was a fun space as well, with a pool table which helped keep the men entertained before photos. Something to note about that room was the lighting was a bit dim for photographs, but as long as your photographer has the right equipment (ours did), it’s all good and a very cool space!
Kellerman’s was everything we could have hoped for and more in a venue. Our day went by seamlessly, due in large part to Kristin’s help! We cannot recommend this venue more highly to anyone considering a wedding near the twin cities as an affordable and FUN option for both wedding and reception, as well as any other events!
