Your day. Your way. Without the overwhelm.

The Promise Room MN is a complete micro wedding experience tucked inside a stunning Anoka photography studio. We bring together everything you need — an ordained officiant, professional photography, and handcrafted sweets — so you can simply show up and get married. No vendor juggling. No weekend-long planning spirals. Just the two of you, the people you love most, and a ceremony that actually feels like you.

Simple. Sacred. Seamless.


F.A.Q.'s

How many people can attend?

Our packages accommodate between 6 and 20 guests plus the couple, depending on which package you choose. If your group is a little larger, reach out — we’re happy to talk through options.

Can we write our own vows?

Absolutely — and we encourage it. Alan will work with you during your planning meeting to craft a ceremony that reflects your story, whether that means traditional vows, original vows, or a mix of both.

What does the studio look like?

The Promise Room MN is hosted inside Kandy Rae Photography’s professional studio in Anoka, MN. It’s warm, beautifully lit, and designed to photograph beautifully from every angle. You can see it for yourself at your planning meeting before the big day, if you’d like.

Is a deposit required?

Yes. We request half of the cost to hold your date. Details are provided at booking. And look, if we need to work something out, just let us know.

Do you travel for elopements outside the studio?

Currently our packages are designed for the studio experience. We own the studio, so it is much easier to be flexible and not have to worry about the weather.
