*Updated - We have our featured cake baker/decorator for this year! Ashley Becker from Becker Sweets will be displaying her sweet treats for our guests this year. A big shout out to her! We are always willing to help individual business owners get started in their endeavors.

On that note...if there is a start up photographer in the area that would like to be available to take pictures of our wedding couples and the venue for their business page, please message me. Again we are always willing to compensate you for your time... you don't pay to set up a booth!

It is that time of year again and I am again putting together a vendor list for the Clarissa Ballroom's Wedding Day Open House.
If you are a vendor in the following categories but not limited to and would like to be on a list to be available for bride and groom’s to pick up or wish to drop off business cards for this event I do always have a table set aside for vendor so please message or call me at 320 219 3023. Their is no cost to be added to the list or to have business cards available. Unfortunately this is not an event for vendors to put up a booth it is for the ballroom to show case our venue and appreciation to our wedding couples.

P.S.If there is any cake decorator that would want to displace a cake this year let me know. I do usually buy a cake or two every year for my guests. Would need enough cake to serve approximately 150 guests. We always run out of cake! Cupcakes would work as well.
Thanks in advance Vendors

The Clarissa Ballroom is looking to host a Nashville Night, Friday July 26th, 2024, during the Clarissa Summer Festival.

We are putting out feelers to see it there is any interest from music artists out there to play for a Nashville themed night.

If anyone has ever been to Nashville you know that the bars are filled with music artists performing their numbers for patrons in the bar for tips. That will be the set up for this night as well.

For this night we are looking for music artists to sign up to play for a 30 minute to an hour set. If enough sign up we will have an additional stage outside, weather permiting.

You will have to supply your own instruments, such as a guitar or keyboard etc. A sound system will be available. Looking to have solo or duel (duet) acts only, Sorry no bands as there would be to much down time.

Please message or call Becky for more information and to get on the potential list of acts for Nashville Night.

Food and beverages will be available during this event. All performing artists will receive a complimentary meal from the Clarissa Ballroom for their performance for the evening.

Share and tag your musical friends. This would be a very enjoyable evening out with friends and family for good food, drinks and music!!

Our Story and Mission

The Clarissa Ballroom is located in Central Minnesota just off Highway 71 north of Clarissa, a small town of just over 600 people. The Dance Hall was moved to Clarissa from Bertha in the late 1940’s and Jim and Becky bought the Clarissa Ballroom back in 1997 from Becky’s Parents, Tony and Marion Massmann who purchased it from Don Thompson in 1985. Since that time there have been several changes and updates to the building. A brand new vaulted ceiling/roof was put on in 2007, along with new heating and cooling systems a outdoor patio was added in 2017.

The Ballroom has hosted many events over the past several years and hundreds of weddings! This husband and wife team have over 50 years of combined catering experience and along with their children Dylan, Danielle and Derek are dedicated to putting their costumers first by providing Great service, a Friendly Atmosphere, Great Food and even better prices. Jim and Becky will work with you to make your wedding or event as stress free as possible to help make your special day the best day ever!
