Awarded Best of Zola
Upscale hideaway near Chicago: quiet and secluded, it's a great place to slow down and be pampered during your wedding. It's pricier compared to other venues in the area, but this place truly offers a "get what you pay for" experience.

The Design Barn was the perfect venue! They are very accommodating and will work with you to put your vision together. Alex was so helpful with making our dreams come to life. Jorge makes the BEST food. You don't have to worry about food and drinks. They have a team there to do it all! The venue also includes all your seating, plates/silverware/glasses, linens, cute Photo Booth area, along with tables for your welcome set up. We've been to many venues where you get charged extra for security, plating, linens, extra chairs, etc. They also have plenty of space to have over 200 people! We never felt cramped or crowded. The Design Barn also has beautiful and fun SPACIOUS rooms for the bridal parties. They also have a very cute and fun room for when the bride gets ready. We've been to other venues where there were no bridal suites or they were extremely small. Our bridal party had 9 people on each side so room to get ready was a must. The venue also provides drinks and lunch for when you are getting ready. All the staff are super friendly and helpful. We are so glad we picked the Design Barn. It was PERFECT!!

Engelbrecht Farm 

5.0

Paxton, IL
  • Up to 220 guests
  • Raw space
  • Indoor & outdoor
  • Starts at $5,000

Engelbrecht Farm sits on 8 acres and is located in the heart of farming country. A very unique structural features of the barn is the opening to allow guests to be seated to two levels and both levels can look at the head table for a gallery type feel. The other unique feature is its size. It is the largest actual barn (not modern structure that looks like a barn) within multiple states at 4500 square feet. Adjacent to the barn is the old 4000 square foot feedlot with flower garden and iron pergola. Late in the day makes for a great spot for outdoor games. With the barn comes the recently restored, three bedroom farmhouse originally constructed in the 1890’s. One amazing aspect for the wedding package is it’s a standard three day booking. Families arrive on Friday and check out on Sunday. This gives them time to relax and take the whole experience in. Plus the time is spent making their wedding their own. This is the place for imagination and creativity to really shine.

My husband and I had our wedding reception at Englebrecht Farm last September and had to change many details last minute due to the pandemic. Chris was extremely flexible and understanding of our situation. He helped us safely plan our dream wedding and made sure everything went perfect for us. The barn is original, rustic and absolutely beautiful. You can really make it fit your vision with your decorations, lights, etc. You get access to the barn and farmhouse for the entire weekend of your wedding which takes out a lot of the stress and time constraints that usually occur. I can’t say enough good things about this place and the people who run it! If your looking for a rustic wedding venue in the area that is just down the road from a brand new hotel and several local businesses for your guests to enjoy, I highly recommend Englebrecht Farm!
