I don’t even know where to begin!! The English Barn made my wedding an absolute dream come true. From start to finish, everything was seamless, beautiful, and unbelievably stress-free. So many of our guests told us it was one of the best weddings they had ever been to, and I owe that all to the incredible team at The English Barn, especially my amazing coordinator Jessica and the wonderful owner Jane.

My wedding was on 8/23/25 and we had our reception at The English Barn. Our entire experience from start to finish was absolutely phenomenal. Jane, Paul, & Jessica were so fun to work with. Everybody here is incredibly kind and thoughtful through every step of the way. Jessica even hand stitched my husbands pants when they ripped all the way down in the back lol. The English Barn is the most beautiful venue in the KC Metro in my opinion. I heard lots of my guests talking about how beautiful this venue is. My wedding day was everything and more that I’ve ever dreamed of thanks to the hard working team at The English Barn. If you’re thinking about having your wedding here you should 100% do it! You won’t regret a thing!!

My wife and I got married at The English Barn and everything was absolutely perfect. We had 4 tours set up for different venues but cancelled the rest after our first meeting with Jane. The grounds are immaculate and we had a beautiful outdoor wedding with a cocktail hour in the garden and an indoor reception afterwards that comfortably sat 160. Our planner Jessica made everything easy for us and we were able to figure out the layout, linens, and decor in just a few meetings. She and Jane also assisted with recommendations for lodging and transportation. We would choose The English Barn again in a heartbeat!
Absolutely perfect day!

If you’re looking for that venue that has something no other venue out there has, with the look, the feeling, and the genuine care for you as a bride and groom and your families. Go check out The English Barn. You will not regret it."

I fell in love with The English Barn the moment we drove onto the property for our tour. You can tell there was so much thought and love poured into every detail of this place. There is SO MUCH to think about and worry about when you first dive into wedding planning, but from our first meeting with Jane, she put us at ease with how much her and her team would be dedicated to giving us the best day possible while taking a lot off our plates. I am so thankful to have her, Paul, and the fabulous staff at English Barn who allowed us to truly be present and enjoy what turned out to be the most perfect day! Jane was an incredible coordinator and I don't know what we would have done without her. She was there through the whole planning process and gave me guidance on choosing the right vendors, creating the best flow of the day, and make sure we included everything that was important to us. She also took my inspiration photos and ideas and knocked it out of the park with decor all while staying within a reasonable budget.
I highly recommend this venue to anyone looking for a unique fairytale-esque hidden gem of a location right here in Kansas but feels like a destination venue! And if you have no idea where to start with planning like me or just want to be able to have a worry-free day, their planning services are amazing!
Thank you Jane, Paul, and The English Barn team for a dream come true and beautiful memories to last a lifetime, not just for Griffin and I, but for all of our guests! ❤️
