35 Places to Get Married Outside in Minnesota

First of all, shout out to the hikers of Minnesota who have given me so many great ideas to share with you all if you are thinking about getting married outside in Minnesota.

In all of my interactions with either elopement photographers or folks looking to elope, I don’t think any of them have really ever classified Minnesota as a “prime elopement location” BUT! I’m on a mission to change that and I am going to start here and now with 35 (and one bonus so keep reading!) spots you could get married at outside or elope in Minnesota!

I’ve included the links to some of these hikes on All Trails which is super handy for giving you some additional information and photos of the location.

Be sure to reference my post on the best time of year to elope and keep that in mind while envisioning these spots. You can read it here!
