Local details
What licences, permits and park rules apply in New Richmond, WI?
New Richmond is in St. Croix County, so couples marrying here follow Wisconsin's licence rules rather than Minnesota's, and the timing works differently.
- How do you get a marriage licence for a New Richmond wedding?
- Apply in person at any Wisconsin county clerk's office. St. Croix County charges $100, cash or check only. There is a 3-day waiting period, so apply at least four days and no more than 60 days before the wedding; the licence is valid for 60 days. Source: St. Croix County marriage licence information
- Can a Wisconsin licence be used for a ceremony in Minnesota?
- No. A Wisconsin licence covers a ceremony performed in Wisconsin only. If the ceremony itself is across the river in Minnesota, you need a Minnesota licence instead. Source: St. Croix County marriage licence information

New Richmond & St. Croix County Coverage
New Richmond is the largest wedding market between Hudson and Rice Lake, with a mix of barn, golf-course, and downtown-loft venues. I average 8+ St. Croix County weddings per year and know the local vendor community personally — florists, planners, DJs, officiants, and cake bakers all vetted through repeat work.
Barn Wedding Expertise
St. Croix County has some of Wisconsin's best barn venues — The Barn at Stoney Point, Willow River Chateau, and multiple private-property barn conversions. I light dark reception spaces with dual off-camera flashes matched to Edison-bulb lighting, shoot dual Sony A7IV bodies clean to ISO 8000, and deliver crisp warm editorial frames every time.
