Finding a venue to get married in Minnesota can be somewhat of a challenge if the bride and groom want a place that is different from traditional venues such as hotels and country clubs. For those couples looking to make an impression with a unique venue, places such as zoos, museums, stadiums or even yachts offer wedding packages.
