It was everything we could’ve dreamt of…
We were so happy with our ceremony at Trellis. The grounds were beautiful and well-kept. Kelsey and her husband were such a pleasure to work with and did an amazing job keeping everything organized and running on schedule. It was everything we could’ve dreamt of and more. We’ll forever talk about how wonderful our wedding was at Trellis. Highly recommend!

Surround Sound Audio System with 5 Microphones
We have hidden speakers in our gardens that allow sound to be heard from the time that guests enter our grounds. Music is on from the time the wedding party enters until they leave.

This is located next to our Canopy area and has many electrical outlets. If you are having a Gazebo Wedding, we have a different sound system that you can use for amplification of music. This is included in our pricing. Your musicians will not need to bring in an amplification system. They can plug in to our professional mixer. Music stands will need to be brought in by your musician(s). There are plenty of electrical plug ins nearby. There is no need for extension cords.
A real life fairytale
We are so incredibly glad that we discovered Trellis when searching for a Stillwater ceremony venue! It has to be one of the most stunning outdoor settings in all of Minnesota and was an absolute dream for our photographer with all of the garden nooks and crannies to utilize for wedding photos. But easily the best part of getting married at Trellis was getting to work with Kelsey! She was kind, responsive, and flexible and helped bring our ceremony visions to life. We can’t recommend Trellis highly enough!

No matter how you envision your wedding, we’ve got the perfect timeline to bring it to life. Here’s how your special day could unfold with us:
Day Break: For the couple who wants to soak up every moment! Start your day with a beautiful late morning ceremony at Trellis. Afterward, keep the celebration going with a lovely luncheon, an early dinner, or additional festivities at the reception venue of your choice. This is a favorite for Saturday and Sunday weddings—perfect for making the most of your day!
Early Afternoon: The classic wedding vibe! Say “I do” in the early afternoon, then treat your guests to a lively cocktail hour followed by dinner at your reception venue. This timeline is ideal if you’d like to ease into the evening with plenty of time for mingling, photos, and fun.
Late Afternoon: There’s nothing quite like golden hour—nature’s perfect filter! For late summer celebrations time your ceremony with sunset, and you’ll be wrapped in warm, dreamy light as you say “I do.” Afterward, head straight to your reception for an intimate dinner or an all-night dance party. All summer this timeframe is the perfect for those that would rather skip the cocktail hour and dive right into the celebration!
Night Fall: One of our favorites! Imagine a romantic summer ceremony just as the sun sets, surrounded by the soft glow of string lights, glowing lanterns, and twinkling post lights. This is perfect for smaller guest lists, with couples often starting the evening with an intimate dinner elsewhere before gathering at Trellis for a breathtaking dusk ceremony.
Note: Nightfall ceremonies are available through August to catch the best sunset lighting.
No matter the timeline, your day at Trellis will be filled with beauty, joy, and memories to last a lifetime.
