Thank you so much Aimee for hosting our big day. Your barn was lovely everyone raved about how beautiful it was. You were so helpful and went way above and beyond to make sure we had everything we needed. The wedding went so smoothly because you stayed and helped with everything. We couldn't have made it such a successful night without you. I would highly recommend your venue to any bride. I was a little concerned with the location being in the middle of the country, but all my guest young and old made it there just fine and on time. I will definitely treasure memories made there especially

Went here for a private event and I was so blown away by this huge barn lovingly restored and brought back to life! The space is frequently the spot for weddings, receptions and in this case, a graduation party for several teens. Tucked away and down a gravel road, you'll pull into this venue with a huge, but well organized field for parking. The interior features a massive walk in sized fireplace that is like no other you have seen!
Once used as a world class antiques museum (believe it or not!) it was frequented by those in the Kansas City social scene, including the Wornall Family. It

What an amazing wedding I'm so happy for Tyler and Natalie June 17, 2017. It was one of the hottest weddings I have ever been to but with so many friends and family gathered around I didn't even maty. It's always special when two people want to get together and celebrate each other's lives forever. I was so happy to be a part of the wedding and the venue was so amazing it's like I was transported back in time.
