I'm a hopeless romantic who smiles so much behind my camera that my cheeks hurt by the end of most of my shoots! I’m a wedding and family photographer, virtual storyteller, golden sunset-seeker, and the ultimate hype woman.
Located in Rush City, MN (about 1 hour north of the Twin Cities), this secluded venue offers rustic elegance with a nature-forward vibe. Creekside Farm accommodates up to 275-288 guests and operates year-round with heat and A/C in the barn. Couples can choose from 9 outdoor ceremony sites plus an indoor barn option.

Looking for that dreamy North Woods vibe without the long drive to Duluth? Creekside Farm Weddings & Events in Rush City has you covered. This Chisago County wedding venue sits on 50 gorgeous acres of pure Minnesota beauty. And honestly? It feels like stepping into a fairy tale.
The moment you turn onto the property, the magic begins. You’ll drive through a stunning maple tree tunnel that’s absolutely jaw-dropping in fall. Then you cross a charming bridge over Rush Creek. By the time you reach the venue, you already feel miles away from everything.
This is the perfect spot for couples who want a laid-back, nature-focused celebration. But here’s the best part: you still get the safety net of a modern, climate-controlled barn. Rustic elegance meets practical comfort at this Rush City wedding venue!






One thing I absolutely love about Creekside Farm? Both getting ready suites are right on site. No stressful travel on your wedding day. No coordinating multiple locations. Just easy, relaxed preparation surrounded by beautiful scenery.
The bridal suite offers a private space with gorgeous window light. (Photographer tip: that natural light is perfect for detail shots and portraits!) Meanwhile, your partner can hang out in the separate groom’s loft area. Some setups even include balcony access for sneaky first look moments.
Having everyone on the same property makes timeline planning so much smoother. Trust me, your photographer will thank you for this setup!







Here’s where Creekside Farm really shines. They offer NINE different outdoor ceremony locations. Nine! It’s basically a choose-your-own-adventure situation. And every single spot is stunning in its own unique way.
The Woods ceremony site is a total showstopper. You’ll hike in surrounded by birch and maple trees. It’s incredibly whimsical and perfectly shaded for midday ceremonies. The Creekside location puts you right by the water’s edge. Super romantic with those gentle creek sounds in the background!
The Willows frames you between gorgeous, sweeping willow trees. Or you can use the rustic barn exterior as your ceremony backdrop. And if the weather doesn’t cooperate? The indoor barn option is genuinely beautiful. Not just a backup plan, but a legitimate choice!







Let’s talk about this incredible barn. High vaulted ceilings soar overhead with exposed wooden beams. Elegant chandeliers add just the right amount of sparkle. It perfectly balances rustic charm with polished sophistication.
Here’s the game-changer for Minnesota weddings: this barn has BOTH heat and air conditioning. That’s huge! No sweating through humid July receptions. No freezing during gorgeous October celebrations. Your guests will actually be comfortable year-round.
The layout works beautifully for both dinner and dancing. Round tables fill the space for an intimate seated dinner. Then there’s a dedicated dance floor ready for all the fun. Plus, there’s an outdoor patio with a fire pit for cocktail hour or dancing breaks!






As a wedding photographer, I could spend all day shooting at Creekside Farm. That maple tunnel driveway? Absolutely iconic, especially during fall wedding season. The colors are unreal, and the light filtering through creates pure magic.
The bridge over Rush Creek is perfect for romantic couple portraits. It also works amazingly for wide bridal party shots. Golden hour at Creekside Farm is something special. The open fields and rolling hills catch that sunset glow perfectly. Tall grasses turn golden, and everything just glows.
Don’t sleep on the creek itself for photos! You get beautiful reflections and natural movement in images. During spring and summer, wildflowers pop up on the hillsides. Every season offers something different and beautiful for your Creekside Farm wedding photography.
The seclusion here is next level. You have all 50 acres completely to yourselves. No other weddings happening next door. No random strangers wandering into your ceremony shots. Just you, your people, and gorgeous Minnesota nature.
The flexibility at Creekside Farm is unmatched. With nine ceremony sites to choose from, every couple finds their perfect fit. Want a forest vibe? Done. Prefer waterside views? You got it. The variety makes each wedding feel completely unique.
