Eagan Wedding

Eagan is a city in Dakota County, Minnesota, and is a thriving suburb of the Twin Cities metropolitan area located approximately 15 miles southeast of downtown Minneapolis. As of the 2000 census, the city had a total population of 63,557, and is the eighth most populous city in Minnesota. Eagan is home to the Northwest Airlines headquarters as well as Thomson Legal & Regulatory, a legal information and publishing giant. An interesting fact about Eagan is that it's one of the very few Twin Cities suburbs without an established car dealership business. Eagan was also famously visited by the "20th hijacker" of the September 11th, 2001 terrorist attacks, Zacarias Moussaoui, prior to the attacks on the World Trade Center in New York City. Moussaoui attempted to complete flight training school at the Northwest Airlines headquarters, but was ultimately refused service. The local institution for secondary education, Eagan High School, has been twice named a "Nationally Recognized School of Excellence". In 2006, it was rated the 12th best place to live in the United States by Money Magazine.[1]

According to the United States Census Bureau, the city has a total area of 86.6 km (33.4 mi). 83.7 km (32.3 mi) of it is land and 2.9 km (1.1 mi) of it (3.38%) is water.
