How is The Emerald Cottage Wedding Venue Different?
The Emerald Cottage is a intimate wedding venue with a focus on affordability and a stress-free experience.
Here’s how we differ:
- Intimate Focus: Unlike larger venues designed for bigger crowds, The Emerald Cottage is purposefully built for micro-weddings and elopements, hosting up to 60 guests. This specialization allows us to create a cozy and personal atmosphere that larger spaces might struggle to achieve.
- Affordable and Inclusive Packages: The Emerald Cottage offers a range of packages, including an all-inclusive option priced at $8,500 that covers everything you need from decor, decorating, venue coordination, hair and makeup, photography, officiant, and a sweetheart cake. This upfront approach to pricing and inclusions aims to simplify the planning process and reduce stress for our brides and couples. In contrast, many venues may require couples to source and coordinate these elements separately, which can lead to higher costs and more logistical challenges.
- Natural and Rustic Charm: The venue boasts a 4.5-acre property nestled in a serene natural setting in Brainerd, Minnesota. This includes lush greenery, wildflowers, a sparkling lake, and even wildlife. This focus on a rustic yet elegant natural backdrop distinguishes it from venues with more formal or urban settings.
- Transparent Pricing: The Emerald Cottage emphasizes its transparent pricing and packages, making it easier for couples to understand the true cost of their wedding without hidden fees.
- Flexibility and Personalization: The intimate setting allows for more flexibility and customization, letting couples choose from various ceremony locations (lake, woods, or indoor cottage) and personalize their day to reflect their unique style. This differs from larger venues that might have more rigid rules and limitations due to accommodating a higher volume of events.
