We were so thrilled with our wedding experience with Walter Weddings. Melissa was PHENOMENAL as a coordinator! She truly made sure our needs were met for our wedding and it truly made it beyond what we dreamt of. We loved all the inclusions that came with our venue package, DJ Aiden was incredible at setting the vibes!! It made our planning so much easier to have people who were so kind and met our needs. I’d highly recommend The Milestone Denton if it’s coming with dream team Melissa & Aiden!!

Jm Prosperity Farm Rustic Barn Venue 

5.0

Argyle, TX
  • Up to 150 guests
  • Raw space
  • Indoor & outdoor
  • Starts at $2,800

Our rustic, elegant venue was originally a horse farm that trained champions. In 2018, we converted our main barn into a venue. We wanted our venue to have a look all its own. We mixed old wood, rustic hardware, & treasures with new things to create the stand-alone one-of-a-kind look & vibe this venue has today. When you visit, you will see old wood mixed with twinkle lights, chandeliers, & antique stained glass from old church buildings. Putting these elements together has created a gorgeous warm & inviting space. Our venue also offers an attached covered pavilion(with drop-down windscreens for inclement weather) & twinkle lights above. This is an excellent place for most of our ceremonies. We love having the bride hidden behind the big wooden doors that slide open for her entrance! This fantastic space doubles as space for additional partying as the night goes on! We are dedicated to ensuring your event is fantastic & will be on-site

Why you'll love this venue

  • Offers full flexibility in setup and decor
  • Both indoor and outdoor options
  • Unique barn setting

Venue considerations

  • Does not allow pets
  • Not for you if you prefer a more modern aesthetic

From the very first interaction with Jan and the team at Jm Prosperity Farm Rustic Barn Venue, we were blown away by their thorough, caring, and accommodating approach. They truly went above and beyond to ensure our special day was everything we had ever hoped and dreamed it would be. Jan was incredibly helpful, constantly checking in with me and my wedding party to see if there was anything she could do to help out. She made sure all of our vendors knew exactly where to go and how I wanted my vision for the decor to come to life. The venue looked absolutely stunning in our photos - the level of detail and beauty was beyond our expectations. We are so grateful to Jan and the entire Jm Prosperity Farm team for making our wedding day run so smoothly and for creating such a magical experience for us and all of our guests.

Our wedding was truly the most magical day! Barnett Estates was one of the first and only venues we toured because we absolutely fell in love. Weddings can be extremely expensive and we were worried about finding a beautiful venue that was in our budget. For the price point you get access to SO many different decorations that most venues don’t offer. Not to mention that the venue itself is stunning. After booking with them a lot of the stress is immediately taken away as they help you through every step of the way and are quick to respond if you reach out with any questions or concerns. We ended up booking with a lot of the vendors that they recommended and I’m so happy we did! The DJ was AMAZINGLY upbeat and kept the party going all night. The food they offered was delicious and we received so many compliments on it! The cake that we got through their bakery was delicious and they were super accommodating to allergies by offering a gluten free cake as well. The sparklers and fireworks we got for our grand entrance made us feel like we were in a fairy tale. The photographer they recommended didn’t miss a single moment and the photos ended up turning out beautiful. The day of the wedding we did have a small hiccup that caused our grand entrance time to be delayed but they were quick to get it sorted with minimal disruption. The rest of the day went off without a hitch and everything came together perfectly. Weeks later we still have friends and family telling us how it was the best wedding they’ve ever been to and a lot of that is thanks to Barnett Estates. Overall we could not recommend Barnett Estates enough. Thank you for giving us the wedding of our dreams!
