Lauritzen Gardens was the perfect venue for our daughter's bridal shower. The room we used was intimate and cozy, with a long table that was perfect for our small group. Our guests loved being able to explore the botanical garden after the event ended. In addition to plants, the facility has lovely art and architectural details and the food and beverage from the caterer was an excellent value.

Lilac Hill 

5.0

Louisville, NE
  • Up to 300 guests
  • Select services
  • Indoor & outdoor

Lilac Hill is a family owned 80 acre property in Louisville, NE, about 25 minutes from Omaha and 45 minutes from Lincoln. The original founders of Lilac Hill, Don and Bev Maxon, bought this old run down property in the 80's and set out to create their own arboretum. There are dozens of old growth trees, hundreds of blue spruce, and thousands of flowering shrubs and plants, which provide beautiful color and depth everywhere you go. The space combines elements of BoHo, Rustic, Elegant, and Industrial in a romantic natural landscape. So many of our guests comment that they don't feel like they're in Nebraska anymore! The property is enclosed by trees, providing a feeling of seclusion and exclusivity where your guests can hang out under our 100' tall cottonwood trees and smell the lilac scented breezes. With seating inside for up to 300 guests, our space can accommodate nearly all party sizes. Come visit soon for a tour!

We are so happy we chose Lilac Hill to have our wedding ceremony and reception at. The property is beautiful, with so many different sites available to have the ceremony at (we chose in front of the old barn). Chris, the owner, was so easy to work with and very responsive. We were really happy with the pricing as well, and all the things included in the packages they offer. They also have lots of decor available to use for free! On our wedding day, everything went perfectly, and a big part of that was because of the help from Chris and Winter. We also really loved the bartenders that worked our wedding! If you’re looking to have a rustic/barn wedding, we truly can’t recommend Lilac Hill enough. You’ll be so happy you did!!

Roca Berry Farm 

5.0

Lincoln, NE
  • Up to 300 guests
  • Select services
  • Indoor & outdoor

Roca Berry Farm is owned by the growing Schaefer family and we have been harvesting memories since 1980. What started as a small pumpkin and berry farm has grown to a local tourist attraction and must-see entertainment destination for families throughout southeast Nebraska. Through the years as the success of the farm grew, Roca Berry Farm evolved to feature Roca Scary Farm at night, building a following among teens and adults who chase after the thrill of haunted houses and Halloween-season horror.

Roca Berry Farm was a fantastic venue for our wedding! They were great to communicate with, especially being a couple who live out of state. The Creekside Barn was GORGEOUS!! Exactly what I was looking for and was great for a larger wedding due to all the space in the back. Molly was a great day-of coordinator and went above and beyond to help us have our perfect day! We couldn't have asked for a better venue and team to work with.
