A Historic and Small Town Wedding Venue – Right in the Heart of Delano, Minnesota

Let’s begin with a quick overview of the historic wedding venue in downtown Delano, MN. This gorgeous brick beauty has been part of this town’s story since 1905 (yep, she’s vintage in the best way). Locals originally called it the “Big Brick Block Hall”, and from the moment you step inside, you’ll understand why – it’s big, bold, beautiful, and full of history. It’s no surprise this place holds the charm of classic Minnesota wedding venues.

The vibe? Rustic wood, exposed brick, cozy lighting, and just the right amount of fancy. Whether you’re planning a sweet elopement or a full-on celebration with all your people, The Jerome has that magical mix of homey and elegant that instantly makes you feel like you belong there.

The Dreamiest Bridal Suite (and More!)

Okay, brides—get ready to fall in love with this next part. The Jerome just added a brand-new bridal suite, and it is straight out of a wedding day Pinterest board. Cozy? Yep. Elegant? Absolutely. Covered in cute details? You betcha! There’s a wall of mirrors perfect for getting your glam on with your crew, a dedicated spot to hang your dress (with the cutest fancy hanger that’s SO much better than the plastic one your dress came with), and lighting that makes every behind-the-scenes photo pop, just what you would expect from top-notch Minnesota wedding venues.

And guess what? The groom and his guys aren’t left out. One of the surrounding historic buildings will be a groom’s suite slash Airbnb soon! It’s the epitome of a Minnesota small town wedding venue, and the perfect hangout zone for the morning of the wedding and doubles as a sweet spot to stay the night after the party winds down.

The Jerome Has Everything – and Then Some

But wait—there’s more! When I was there recently photographing the venue, they were literally building a brand new bar. That’s how fresh and fab this space is! And it doesn’t stop there – The Jerome includes:

• Various centerpiece and linen options.
• Flexible table layouts for whatever vibe you want.
• Multiple ceremony setups.
• A screen + projector for slideshows.
• An awesome sound system for dance floor bangers.
• AND a massive matte black magnetic wall (SO fun for photos or custom displays!)
• Even the bathrooms are adorable!

All of this is included – no extra fees. Click here for more information on pricing, how to book a tour, reserving a date, and so much more. It’s thoughtful, it’s gorgeous, and it’s super budget-friendly. I love that for you, because let’s be real, weddings get real expensive, real fast.

Dinner, Drinks & Delano Vibes

Another reason why this venue is a perfect Minnesota small town wedding venue; is that just a few steps away is The Whisky Jar, one of the coolest spots, and has a special and direct relationship with The Jerome! It’s perfect for a groom’s dinner, a welcome party, or just a chill place for guests to grab a bite and a handmade cocktail. The vibes are warm and welcoming, and it adds such a fun, relaxed element to the whole wedding weekend, truly embodying the spirit of Minnesota wedding venues.

Say Cheese! Photo Spots Galore

Here’s the thing – The Jerome is a fantastic Minnesota wedding venue that is amazing on its own, but when you step outside? Magic. The surrounding downtown streets are full of character and charm. Think vintage doorways, rustic brick alleys, quaint sidewalks – SO many unique backdrops for your wedding portraits.

And just a few blocks away? The Crow River, giving you peaceful nature vibes to balance the downtown energy. I recently took my daughter’s prom photos all around here (with her BF and a friend), and the variety of backdrops to choose from will make your wedding portraits unique and give you a variety of different vibes. I couldn’t help showcasing some of these sassy photo’s as some examples for you to check out.

Seriously—don’t skip carving out time on your big day to explore these spots with your photographer – hey there 😉

Why I Love This Place (And Why You Will Too)

Okay, real talk: this isn’t just any venue blog post for me – this one’s personal. I live in Delano. I love this sweet, humble, tight-knit town with all my heart. And The Jerome? It’s become a space that means so much to me. We hosted my dad’s “celebration of life there”, and the owners were so kind, flexible, and intentional about every detail. I’ve seen firsthand how much they care about making every event feel uniquely yours.

So here’s the fun part and a reminder from above: because I love The Jerome so much, and truly feel it is one of Minnesota’s best wedding venue’s, I’m offering a 30% discount on ANY photography package for weddings held at this beautiful venue. All other discounts are 15% off and only for full day weddings only – this is truly a huge deal!!
