Your Event

When can I get in to set up?

The banquet room is yours from 7AM the day of your event until 1:00 AM. If Tanners Brook does not have an event the day before you may be able to set up a day earlier. Andrea will make that determination closer to your event date.

What is included for my event?

Standard room set-up and take down, flexible layout of your choosing, large on-site parking area, proficient and hospitable staff, experienced bartenders, sixty-inch round tables seating 8 people, linen tablecloths and napkins in your choice of colors and the opportunity to take pictures on our beautiful golf course.

What is the capacity at Tanners Brook?

Tanners Brook can hold 250 people in the banquet room. We also have a covered patio that can seat an additional 24 people.

Can I rent the space and bring my own food or beverages?

We have a preferred caterer here at Tanners Brook; however, you may bring in a licensed caterer of your choice for a $500 kitchen fee. All alcohol must be supplied by Tanners Brook Golf Club, as licensee in accordance with Minnesota State Liquor Regulations.

What if I have unique ideas for my event?

By all means, we encourage our guests to come up with innovative ways to set their events apart. Please feel free to ask us if your ideas are feasible, or if we can think of any alternatives or other interesting ideas we have seen in the past.

Fees and Charges

What deposits are required to hold a date?

For weddings we require a non-refundable deposit of $400 to hold the date. This will be applied toward your final bill the night of the event.

I need to cancel my event; can I get my deposit back?

Because of the nature of the event business, and the fact that the vast majority of events need to be booked well in advance and require a lot of work prior to the event, all deposits are non-refundable.

Do you have food and beverage minimums?

Here at Tanners Brook we do not have food & beverage minimums.
