Germanic-American Institute
Old World Charm paired with Summit Avenue Elegance
The Germanic-American Institute has been the ideal venue for couples looking for a charming and romantic wedding venue for over 40 years. The beautiful, lush lawn with a spectacular array of blooming flowers is the perfect setting for an outside ceremony.
The "Haus" is a magnificent, turn of the century, Georgian-style mansion. The breathtaking "Gone With The Wind" staircase from which the bridal party descends has been called the most beautiful on Summit Avenue. Charming dining rooms with grand fireplaces and elegant chandeliers provide the perfect backdrop to your festivities.
CEREMONY & RECEPTION
Wedding ceremonies may be held on the outside patio that is surrounded by vibrant flower gardens and stately oak tress. In the case of inclement weather, or if you would simply prefer to be indoors, the ceremony can be moved inside. Receptions may also be held either indoors and outdoors.
Brides love the charming "Damensalon" for pre-ceremony preparation and celebration. The spacious third-floor ballroom, complete with its own bar, is the perfect place for post-dinner dancing and fun.
The Germanic-American Institute (GAI) “Haus” at 301 Summit Avenue may be rented by the public for weddings, meetings, parties, and other events. This magnificent and historic 109 year-old mansion features:
The Haus is the refurbished 1906 Beaux Arts-inspired home of the Gardner family, affluent members of Saint Paul's business community who occupied the house until the 1930s. Since the late 1960s, it has served as the home of the Germanic-American Institute and its many cultural and educational offerings.
