Oxbow Country Club 

Oxbow Country Club is one of my favorite wedding venues in Fargo.  Although, I am biased because it is where I got married!  Located just south of Fargo, they have a beautiful new clubhouse with options for indoor and outdoor wedding ceremonies. The new clubhouse is surrounded by the beautiful green golf course and bridges over the water. Only a golf cart ride away, you will find the older part of the course with huge trees and beautiful greenery, perfect for romantic photos. You also don’t need a membership to rent the space!

The Avalon Events Center has something for everyone.  They offer ballrooms that fit anywhere from an intimate 80 guests, all the way to a full party of over 500 guests!

Lakeside wedding ceremony in Detroit Lakes

Holiday Inn – Detroit Lakes – Lakefront

Fargo is part of North Dakota, which is a large farming state. However, Fargo is just across the river from Minnesota, and of course, Minnesota is known for its lakes! It may seem intimidating to pick from the 10,000 lakes in Minnesota, but there is an easy choice just outside of the Fargo area. The Holiday Inn Lakefront in Detroit Lakes, MN is the perfect lakeside wedding venue. You can get married on the lakeside dock and your guests rest their toes in the sand!
