About

On WeddingWire since 2023

Our Brand NEW facility - Calvary Falls Event Center opened its doors late 2023!

Our mission at Calvary Falls Event Center is to provide an affordable and unique place to gather for weddings, rehearsal dinners, graduations, family reunions and other special occasions, including corporate and non-profit events. We have dedicated over 8700 square feet of the indoor space to Calvary Falls to meet the capacity of many events! Housed in the old Museum of Religious Arts building, just west of Logan Iowa, our facility offers everything for your special day under one roof and is just 25 minutes from the Omaha/Council Bluffs metro area.

Calvary Falls indoor venue captures the Mission Chapel with beautiful stained glass, original to the Museum of the Religious Arts, and can accommodate at least 200 wedding guests for the perfect ceremony. Couples may have use of our accommodations for rehearsal dinners as well as wedding-day prep for the bride and groom and their wedding parties in their private dressing rooms.

Calvary Falls reception area will comfortably seat at least 200 guests and our caterer’s prep kitchen is spacious for all the catering needs. 100% of our building is handicap accessible.

Our onsite, private three bedroom, two bathroom, 1800 square foot guest quarters is also available for rent for your special occasion.

Calvary Falls centerpiece, of three hilltop crosses, would be a perfect backdrop for an outdoor venue, engagement pictures and other photo opportunities.

Wonderful wedding thanks to Calvary Falls.

It was the perfect fit for our son’s wedding. They were so helpful and accommodating. Everything was so comfortable and made a busy day go very smoothly. The owners were very involved and so helpful. The venue was beautiful and had everything a couple would need for a wedding and reception from start to finish. Highly recommend!

Geise Wedding 06/22/24

My husband and I got married at Calvary Falls on June 22, 2024, and it was one of the best decisions we made during our wedding planning process. Calvary Falls sold us for many reasons: rural setting, beautiful chapel, super nice bridal suite and room for the groomsman to get ready, local place for all of our family/friends to come to, ability to accommodate all of our 250 guests, breath taking view up at the crosses, and incredible owners to work with. Oh and must add it's also a one stop shop! The owners of this venue are so kind, dedicated, hardworking, and truly listen to the vision you have your wedding day. Kori and her team were very transparent on the contract, fees, and various package details. We reserved the venue for 3 days (Friday, Saturday, and Sunday) and we would not have done it any other way. Friday we were able to set up and decorate all day, Saturday was our wedding and reception, and Sunday was cleanup day. On Sunday after our wedding we showed up late morning planning to help take down decor, clean up, and haul stuff back home. We were not expecting a majority of the cleanup to be completed/basically done by the time we arrived. Our family/friends also helped out with this process. But I must say Kori and her team did a very large portion of the cleaning and organizing, just another thing we are extremely thankful for. In the days afterwards multiple people made a point to reach out to us or our close family and friends to let us know how incredible of an experience they had as wedding guests at Calvary Falls.
If you have any doubts, don't! Calvary Falls is the BEST!! If we could do it all over again, we would still choose this venue over any others. We will never be able to thank Kori and her team enough for assisting in bringing our dream wedding to life and for everything else in between!!
