Welcome to The Emerald Cottage
An Intimate and Private Wedding Venue in Brainerd, MN

Where Love Stories Begin
The Emerald Cottage was created for couples who want something a little different — an intimate wedding surrounded by nature and the people who matter most.
Tucked away on a private 4.5-acre estate in the Brainerd Lakes Area, our Cottage is home to weddings of up to 60 guests, with beautiful indoor and outdoor spaces to gather, celebrate and get married.
But what makes The Emerald Cottage special isn’t just the setting.
It’s the feeling of being tucked away together.
A wedding where you know everyone in the room.
Where you have time to laugh, eat good food, take beautiful photos and actually enjoy the people you invited. Where your wedding can feel personal, peaceful and completely your own.
Your wedding doesn’t have to be big to be beautiful.
Whether you’re dreaming of a simple few-hour celebration, more time to enjoy the full Cottage experience, or one of our signature Minnesota Bloom weddings, we’ve created different ways to make The Emerald Cottage yours for the day.
Wedding options begin at $2,500, with our most complete Minnesota Bloom experience at $10,500.
Intimate. Private. Beautifully simple.
A special little place to gather your favorite people and begin your marriage.
The Emerald Cottage: intimate, private, and beautifully different.
Think The Emerald Cottage Could Be The One?
Here’s What Happens Next…..
