Gale Mansion

Gale Mansion is a historic wedding venue located just south of downtown Minneapolis at 2115 Stevens Avenue South, built in 1912 and listed on the National Register of Historic Places. The venue is known for its Italian Renaissance Revival architecture, a ballroom with a dance floor, stage, and grand piano, two separate dressing rooms, and in-house full-service catering with on-site event planners included in the rental. The mansion underwent an extensive renovation in 2010 and was recognized as a 2021 MN Bride featured vendor. Located just south of downtown Minneapolis, with free off-street parking available for all events. Reviews are mixed: some couples and photographers praise the historic setting, the bridal suite, the woodwork, and attentive staff who coordinated timelines and catering details; at least one couple reported significant communication difficulties, last-minute catering cancellations, and having to handle setup and day-of coordination themselves after a change in management.
