Our spacious venue seats over 300 guests, in addition, our well-groomed lawns are for the perfect setting for the outdoor ceremony you desire. We are nestled within acres of rolling open countryside.

Bailey Farms Barn and Venue 

5.0

New Virginia, IA
  • Up to 275 guests
  • Select services
  • Indoor & outdoor

We at Bailey Farms Barn & Venue are very detailed oriented with a very casual atmosphere and our goal is that you can say “I truly enjoyed my wedding” not “it went so fast it was over before it started”.

Montana and the staff at Bailey Farms were truly a dream to work with. Montana really never told me no - even when I requested three different meetings and walk throughs with her before the final meeting. When we booked this venue, they had yet to have the wedding and were still in the process of building, setting up and getting things together. I really had to trust the vision that she was selling when we booked and oh boy did they deliver. The house for the girls to stay in is so cozy and has more than enough room and beds for a large wedding party. It was stocked with everything we could imagine. Makeup wipes, bath salts, aromatherapy for showers, hangers, a coffee maker, various kitchen items, lighted personal mirrors and the list could go on and on. The beds were also so comfortable! There was a perfect amount of room for us to get ready the morning of. It was also the perfect distance from where the boys were staying. The barn for the boys is smaller and quaint but had everything the boys needed for the weekend. They had to share beds, but they didn't care! they had fully stocked bathrooms and kitchen along with the perfect amount of space for them to get ready the morning of. Because they have a majority of the decor that you might need already, it made set up and tear down so easy. When we arrived on Friday afternoon, the decor items that we requested from them were waiting for us in the tent to put where we wanted. All of the tables, chairs and backdrops were in place for us. We had the tent decorated fully in about an 2 hours. Montana showed up for the rehearsal and helped us walk through the ceremony and dealt really well with keeping our rowdy groomsmen in line. The day of, she was constantly checking on me to make sure I was okay, she helped direct all the vendors to where they need to be, and when we had to make the last minute call to move the ceremony inside because of the weather, she took 100% of that stress off of me and PROMISED me that it would be just as beautiful inside as it would be outside. Her and the staff pivoted quickly, smoothly and professionally. Every time I saw a staff member, they were so complimentary of me and the wedding and always asked if there was something they could do for me. Even with the weather and me moving the schedule up, they helped keep the peace, keep the schedule and keep me calm during a chaotic day. When it came time to clean up, they took care of a majority of it. Placing the things we brought on one table in the tent so when we came the next morning to pick it all up it was a breeze. Overall, I can't imagine having our wedding anywhere else. This review is honestly just the tip of the iceberg of all they did for us and my gratitude for them. I could really write a book. They are truly a huge reason why this was the best day of my life. I would work for them if I could and I will recommend them to everyone, always. A true dream come true.
