If you’re looking for a wedding that blends sophistication with ease, the Minneapolis Marriott City Center is the perfect setting for your celebration. Located in the heart of downtown, the hotel offers more than 46,000 square feet of customizable event space, giving you the flexibility to host a cozy, intimate gathering or a lively, grand reception.

Grand Ballroom: Make a Statement

For your larger celebration, the Grand Ballroom provides a dramatic and spacious backdrop. Newly renovated and nearly 15,000 square feet, it can seat up to 900 guests. With high ceilings, elegant finishes, and a versatile layout, the ballroom is ideal if you want a traditional wedding feel or plenty of space for dancing, dining, and entertaining all of your guests.

Intimate Spaces for Your Closest Loved Ones

If your dream wedding is smaller and more personal, you can also choose from smaller, customizable event spaces. These rooms create a warm, inviting atmosphere where your family and closest friends feel included in every moment. Cocktail hours can host up to 180 guests comfortably before flowing seamlessly into the main ballroom or other spaces for dinner and dancing.

Planning Made Simple

From your first consultation to your last dance, you’ll work with a dedicated certified wedding planner who helps make every detail feel personal and polished. You’ll enjoy included perks such as a complimentary suite for you and your partner, special room rates for your guests, four complimentary valet passes, and the opportunity to earn Marriott Rewards points. Fees for cake cutting, bartenders, and butler-passed hors d’oeuvres are waived when you use preferred vendors, letting you focus on enjoying the day.

Culinary Experiences and Rehearsal Dinners

You and your guests will enjoy menus crafted by the hotel’s award-winning culinary team. From elegant plated dinners to festive brunches, every detail is designed to match your style. You can also plan a rehearsal dinner, giving your family and friends a relaxed evening to celebrate together before your wedding day.

A Complete Downtown Wedding Weekend

By staying on-site, your guests can enjoy modern accommodations, dining at the signature restaurant, and the convenience of downtown Minneapolis at their doorstep. Every detail, from staging and dance floors to linens and votive candles, is thoughtfully planned so you can relax and enjoy your celebration from start to finish.

Whether you imagine a small, intimate ceremony or a larger-than-life celebration with hundreds of guests, the Minneapolis Marriott City Center can bring your wedding vision to life.
