Summer wedding at Pinewood Weddings and Events

Located just an hour north of Minneapolis, Pinewood is the perfect venue for any couple looking for that woodsy, up-north feel without leaving the metro area. While surrounded by nature, the building itself has a modern, crisp design. Nestled into 10 acres of tall, towering pines in Cambridge, MN - the space truly makes a beautiful backdrop for a wedding in any season!

Features & Amenities

Designed by folks who have a background in wedding photography, the venue has everything you need all in one convenient location - and looks good while doing it!

  • Indoor and outdoor ceremony sites (capacity up to 225)
    Don’t let weather stress you out! They have space inside and outside for a ceremony to take place.

  • 2 getting ready rooms
    Everyone in one handy location! No figuring out travel time from point A to point B, or sending a photographer across town to get photos of the other half of the wedding party. This makes the morning run smoothly and the day becomes easy-breezy!

  • Great light all day
    Lots of venues have some spaces with great light - but ALL the spaces have great light at Pinewood!

  • Indoor/outdoor bar
    Makes a perfect transition from cocktail hour on the patio to dinner inside.

  • Lobby lounge and fireplace
    A great spot for a welcome table and your guest book! Also a comfy spot for your dad or grandma to hang while they wait for photos, and a quiet spot for guests to chat as the music gets louder in the other room.

  • Endless beautiful spots inside and outside - no secondary locations needed for wedding photos!
    Truly a photographer’s dream. No crazy logistics of travel, just gorgeous backdrops everywhere you turn.


Wedding Prep

Like true wedding professionals, they’ve even given you a head start when it comes to providing lodging for your guests! The nearest hotel is just under 4 miles away, at the Cambridge Grand Stay, but they’ve put together a whole list of local hotels and airbnbs on their website here.

They also have a page dedicated to vendors that they recommend, if you are still on the hunt for your perfect florist, or videographer!


Abby and Gary couldn’t have asked for a more beautiful August day for their wedding at Pinewood! Surrounded by their loved ones, with the sun shining, they tied the knot under the towering pines.

Family was at the forefront of this special day - the bride’s brother designed the invite suite and custom matchbooks, they held a Chinese tea ceremony, and Abby made a surprise entrance in her mom’s wedding dress for the dance!

in-home newborn - baby R

This session felt like the universe coming together just right where it was supposed to! This couple found me through Lucia (god bless Yess Yoga 🙏🏼), then come to find out we know so many of the same people from the town I grew up! On top of it, they are wonderful creative folk who were just such a breeze to be with while we captured this moment in their lives.

in-home newborn - baby E

Each new in-home session I do - becomes my favorite session I’ve done. 😅

Honestly I love these sessions so much. They feel so natural and tender. And although they feel like chaos in the moment (the dad at the end of this session sighed and went “well that went horribly” - spoiler alert: it didn’t), these are the priceless times to capture.
