5 Reasons Why You Should Get Married at The Outpost Center

When you think about some of the best moments you have experienced, one of the first things you are likely to remember is the location where your memory took place. Whether you’re researching where to host your Minnesota wedding day or remembering your celebration months, weeks, or years later, what wedding venue do you hope you will remember as you relive the day you recited your vows and danced with your guests? We may be biased, but we hope The Outpost Center acts as the backdrop for one of your greatest days. 

Because of its importance, we know researching and deciding your wedding ceremony and reception locations is a time-consuming task that feels like a monumental feat once you reach a decision. To aid in your efforts and to highlight our personal favorite wedding venue, we thought we would share five reasons why we think you should consider tying the knot in Chaska at The Outpost Center.   


Minutes from Well Known Minnesota Cities

When you’re onsite at The Outpost Center, you will feel as though the busyness of the world is miles away. While that is, in fact, our goal, the reality is Chaska is located a quick drive away from Minnesota’s most well-known cities. In fact, Eden Prairie is under 20 minutes away, you and your guests can reach Minneapolis in 30 minutes, and Twin Cities is just under 40 minutes away. Chaska and The Outpost Center will feel like a true destination, but the activities of some of most-loved cities in our home state are merely a quick drive away. 


Our Venue Hosts Only One Wedding Per Day 

When you’re visiting wedding venues, one of the most important questions to ask is how many weddings they host per day. While you might think your venue only hosts one celebration each day, you don’t want to be surprised to learn there’s another wedding on their agenda on the same day. So, double check! At The Outpost Center, we can happily confirm we only host one wedding per day. We believe this is important because we want to provide our couples and their guests with an exclusive, welcoming experience and our undivided attention.


Prepare for the Day Onsite


One of the ways we help to keep stress levels low is by welcoming our brides, grooms, and wedding parties to our onsite suites. Each one is designed to feel like a hotel suite, and there’s plenty of natural light and space for bridesmaids and groomsmen to get ready with the bride and groom. We’re partial to our getting ready spaces because they allow everyone to enjoy leisurely mornings rather than having to rush to get ready and travel to a venue in time for the ceremony to start. 


Beautiful Minnesota Countryside Views

Whether you’re exploring our property during your couple’s portrait session, capturing photos with your family and wedding party, or reciting your wedding vows outside in our outdoor chapel, the views on display are unparalleled. The green shades of the grass in the spring and summer are bright and vibrant, and the warm shades of the leaves in our wooded backdrop look incredible in the fall. If you’re hoping to create a cozy feel at your wedding, look to the winter when The Outpost Center is blanketed in snow. Every season is beautiful in Chaska. 



Our Wedding Venue has Indoor and Outdoor Options


Some wedding venues will ask you to decide between hosting your wedding inside or outside. At The Outpost Center, we invite you to do both! Walk down the aisle and recite your wedding vows in front of your guests under our wooden pergola in our outdoor chapel in our backyard. Transition into cocktail hour post-vows in front of the barn, and encourage your guests to mingle and participate in a little friendly competition while playing outdoor games. Then allow us to invite everyone inside the barn for dinner and dancing. Here, you can experience is all.
