Fargo wedding planning: your ultimate vendor guide

Legacy Acres Events + Floral

Legacy Acres brings together venue hosting, offsite wedding services, and floral design in one business—making it a strong option for couples who want planning support, décor, and florals to feel seamless from start to finish. With more than 25 years of wedding experience, they have built a reputation for thoughtful service, flexibility, and helping couples feel genuinely cared for throughout the process.

Their venue accommodates up to 300 guests, most often serving weddings in the 150–200 guest range, with décor, coordination, and planning services already included.

“We love helping couples start their marriage surrounded by beauty and focused on the people that matter most.”

Naastad Acres

What sets Naastad Acres apart is its full weekend approach. Couples arrive Friday to settle in, decorate, reconnect with loved ones, and enjoy rehearsal time before the celebration begins. Saturday unfolds with getting ready in the cozy Henhouse, a ceremony at the pergola, and an evening that often includes dancing under the stars, drinks at the Bull Pen bar, and even fireworks to close out the night.

“We’re not just providing a space—we’re creating a place where memories are made, where love is celebrated, and where everyone feels like they belong.”

Abby Anderson Photography + Videography

With two decades of experience, Abby Anderson brings timeless style, masterful lighting, and classic artistry to weddings in Fargo and beyond. Her work blends authentic storytelling with artful portraiture, creating imagery that captures both the emotion of the day and the details couples want to remember for years to come.

Known for a classic and refined approach, Abby works with couples who value natural moments, thoughtful composition, and images that feel both elegant and lasting. She accepts a limited number of weddings each year to provide a more intentional experience.

“Authentic narrative, artful portraits.”

Elska Photography

Elska Photography was built from a simple love of photography and a willingness to follow that passion fully. Weddings may be at the heart of the business, but the deeper focus has always been creating images that help people feel beautiful, confident, and fully themselves.

The name Elska means “love” in Icelandic—a reflection of both the photographer’s Icelandic roots and the meaning behind the work itself: capturing moments that cannot be relived, but can be remembered through thoughtful imagery.

“Photography is my full-time passion.”

Officiant Amber

Based in Grand Forks and frequently serving couples in the Fargo area, Officiant Amber focuses each ceremony around the couple’s story, creating moments that feel personal, meaningful, and deeply memorable. Since 2016, she has married more than 450 couples and brings both warmth and confidence to every ceremony she leads.

Her work combines officiating with premarital coaching, helping couples feel prepared not just for the ceremony itself, but for the meaning behind it. She also authored Navigating Your Wedding Ceremony, available through American Marriage Ministries.

“My goal is to create a meaningful, unforgettable ceremony that couples and their families will remember forever.”

Fuze Entertainment

Fuze Entertainment grew from an early love of music and a simple start helping with school dances—an experience that quickly turned into private events, weddings, and larger celebrations. Today, the business focuses on weddings, event lighting, and private events, with occasional corporate and nonprofit work as well.

What stands out most is the ability to read a room and build momentum naturally throughout the night. From smooth emceeing to creative track mixing, Fuze Entertainment brings an energy that keeps the dance floor moving without making the night feel forced or over-scripted.

“I’m the DJ your parents didn’t expect but the one your friends were hoping for.”

Harmon Entertainment

Harmon Entertainment serves weddings across the Dakotas and Minnesota, offering far more than traditional DJ services. Along with music and emceeing, they also provide photobooths, videography, certified event planning, and even discounted dance lessons for couples who book DJ services.

The company’s roots go back to founder Dave Harmon’s love of dance, which eventually grew into teaching, wedding receptions, and what became the full Harmon Experience couples know today.

“They are your entertainment director for the reception.”

Love Always Floral

Founded in 2016, Love Always Floral began as a one-woman business in Fargo and quickly grew into a private floral studio built around intentional design, creativity, and care. The name itself comes from founder Christy Tehven’s grandmother, whose handwritten signoff—Love Always, Grandma Lois—became both the inspiration and the studio’s logo.

Today, Love Always Floral focuses on full-service weddings, large floral installations, and everyday arrangements, with a team of designers known for thoughtful work, natural composition, rich texture, and unexpected floral combinations.

“Flowers are a visual representation of love.”

Heart Cakes

Heart Cakes is a women-owned Fargo-Moorhead custom cake business built by two friends with a shared dream of opening their own space. When a local café became available, they took the leap and opened Moonrise Cafe, a neighborhood spot that now serves both custom cakes and everyday café favorites.

Known for scratch-made breakfast, lunch, pastries, desserts, and house-made coffee syrups, Heart Cakes creates custom wedding cakes designed around each couple’s style. Their specialty is vintage Lambeth-style cakes, with intricate buttercream piping and classic detail.

“Everybody deserves to feel welcome somewhere. We are here to hopefully make everyone’s day a little brighter.”

Sifted & Sweet Baking Co.

Sifted & Sweet began as a home bakery in 2019 while its founder was still teaching full time as an English teacher. After five years of balancing both, the business grew into a full brick-and-mortar bakery in Moorhead, opening its storefront in 2025.

Known for custom cakes, decorated cookies, and a wide range of baked goods, Sifted & Sweet also offers breakfast and lunch favorites in-store, along with cookie decorating classes, afternoon tea events, and other specialty experiences throughout the year.

“Owning a bakery means I get to put the cherry on top of your event.”

Klaudia & Co.

Klaudia & Co. was founded from a deep love of celebrating brides during one of the most meaningful seasons of their lives. What began as a passion for style, connection, and creating beautiful experiences evolved into a bridal boutique focused on personalization and heart—a space where brides feel seen, supported, and confident in their decisions.

Klaudia & Co. is dedicated to creating a warm, welcoming, and elevated experience for brides, with intentional appointments, curated gown selections, and personalized styling guidance designed to help each bride feel beautiful and confident. Beyond dresses, the boutique places equal value on the experience itself—the memories made with moms, sisters, and best friends along the way.

“We believe bridal shopping should feel joyful, empowering, and stress-free.”

I Do Crews

Founded by Kelsey Aanerud and Lacie Klemetson, I Do Crews specializes in wedding hair and makeup with a focus on making bridal beauty feel seamless, fun, and stress-free. What began as a small two-person service quickly grew through referrals and repeat demand into a full team of seven stylists serving wedding parties across the region.

Known for combining efficient timing with a warm, upbeat presence, I Do Crews can accommodate everything from smaller bridal groups to larger wedding parties. Kelsey leads makeup for most bookings, while Lacie brings her signature hairstyling expertise, with additional stylists available when needed.

“We helped create that confidence.”

The UPS Store Print Shop

With a background in graphic design and 17 years at The UPS Store, their print team has built a strong reputation for helping couples bring wedding details to life with both design support and high-quality printing. As a women-owned and women-run business, they’ve worked with wedding couples for more than 14 years and take pride in a “we can do that” approach.

From save the dates, invitations, programs, and name cards to welcome signs, seating charts, acrylic table numbers, yard signs, and metal keepsakes, they handle both everyday paper goods and larger display pieces. Complimentary print samples and careful attention to detail help couples feel confident before placing final orders.

“It’s so fun to take the stress away from couples when it comes to wedding printing.”
