About

At Firefly Gardens, a barn ballroom in the greater Dallas, Texas area, couples can host a luxurious country wedding. This white barn features an entire wall of windows and massive crystal chandeliers. Couples can find this venue 30 minutes outside of downtown Dallas.

Facilities and Capacity

This ballroom has a maximum capacity of 250 guests for a couple’s wedding day. This ballroom sits on a secluded eight acres of wide-open property. There is a ceremony site located down a gentle slope from the barn itself. This site features a long white pergola, a beautiful frame in which couples can begin their lives together. There is also a smaller indoor space where couples can marry, the Rustic Red Barn. This more traditional-looking barn sits near a pond with a bridge, a chandelier, and a garden. The entire structure is located under impressive oak trees. A two-story classic manor also sits on the property, and can accommodate up to 40 guests for a ceremony or reception. The main hall is a stunning white two-story barn. The entire back of this structure is composed of glass windows. Inside, hardwood floors gleam under the illumination of the massive chandeliers hung from wooden beams overhead. A statement wall in the ballroom features bricks painted in a weathered white.

Our dream venue!!

I remember the first time I saw pictures of Firefly Gardens online, I instantly knew that was where I would be getting married. Once we toured the venue, it was a done deal before we left. Everyone was so easy to work with and so helpful throughout the entire wedding planning process. The venue itself is stunning and it was exactly what I always imagined when I thought about my wedding. I am so glad we chose to spend the happiest day of our lives at Firefly Gardens and could not recommend this venue enough!

the most beautiful!!!

The pictures of this place don't even do it justice! The space is incredible and they have the greatest vendor list to help. Jamie was amazing to work with and she made sure every detail was accounted for! We arrived the day of to our floor plan already set up with linens on, staff available to help unload, and everything was so very clean!!! This venue was an absolute dream.

Beautiful venue but even better service

I cannot recommend this venue enough. Jaime and Jan are the best mother/daughter duo and truly care about their clients. From answering all of my questions, unlimited venue visits, and sharing their incredible knowledge and experience, they’ve exceeded my expectations and made the wedding process smoother. They are not only kind but also very detail oriented and will share nuggets of information that a vendor might miss. The venue staff also works very hard to make sure it’s spotless and perfect for every single event. Jaime and Jan have truly become like family, and I cannot wait to attend future events there so I can see them again. We thank Firefly Gardens/staff from the bottom of our hearts for making our special day so magical.

Firefly Gardens is the Absolute Best in the Biz

We cannot be more thrilled with our wedding experience at Firefly Gardens on 7/22/22!

The venue is gorgeous and took our breath away each time we were on site. Jamie, Jan, and Dennis exceeded all expectations! They made the process smooth, simple, and most importantly, stress-free.

We had a million questions leading up to our big day and Jamie always answered promptly, professionally, and honestly!

On the day of our wedding, there was nothing to worry about because the staff effortlessly took care of everything-- all in the Texas summer heat! It was like they were part of our family, and we couldn’t have asked for anyone better. We definitely took advantage of their recommended vendors list. If Firefly Gardens recommends a vendor, you better believe they are the best! ;)

We received SO MANY compliments on the venue, staff, and service. Thank you for making our special day as perfect as we had envisioned it to be!

A Vision Come to Life

Firefly Gardens was the venue of my dreams and it exceeded all expectations!

Every moment of communication from our venue tour in January 2021 to booking and making countless visits during our engagements, and of course, our wedding day...everything was always immaculate!

Jan and Jamie went above and beyond during the wedding planning process and gave the most incredible advice and assistance from seating charts to table layouts and ceremony order. On the day of, Jan was our fearless leader who took care of all of the issues, had the venue looking stunning and beautiful and really supported myself, my husband and our wedding party.

If I weren't married already, I would book them in a heartbeat. They made my wedding vision come to life and gave us the most amazing memory of a wedding day that we'll never forget. I can't recommend them enough - they are the best and we're so beyond thrilled that we chose Firefly Gardens for our spring wedding!

Book. With. Them.

I have no words for how phenomenal Jamie, her mom, and the entire Firefly Gardens staff were throughout the entire wedding planning process. We mainly interacted with Jamie, and let me just say, if you want to work with a venue and owner that have everything down to a science with how they run things (meaning zero stress) then look no further. I can't rave enough about how responsive and helpful Jamie was to us when we had questions on absolutely anything- I almost felt like I had a separate coordinator in her because of how efficient and thoughtful she was. As for the venue itself, I don't even need to say anything because of how the venue speaks for itself. Our friends and family were absolutely blown away by how beautiful everything was. Choosing Firefly Gardens was hands down the easiest and best decision we made for our wedding. THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU from the bottom of my heart for everything you guys did! Signed, an over the moon bride :)

The Secret Garden

We were so lucky and blessed to find this place. Ms. Jamie and Ms. Jan were amazing. I probably bugged Ms. Jamie more than I should have, and she was always willing to help. Gave me detailed feedback about every question or concern I had. I visited the venue often, and Ms. Jan was always welcoming and willing to show me, or my family, around.
Day of the wedding, everything and everyone was very punctual. While getting ready, they made sure I had everything I needed and then some. The bartenders made sure I stayed hydrated with actually water! Lol! When some guests decided to show up without RSVPing, they were more than willing to put out more tables so I wouldn't rage out on anyone.
The grounds were BEAUTIFUL!! Folks couldn't stop taking pictures: of me, of my hubby, of themselves!! People were awed the entire night. I literally have zero complaints about Firefly Gardens! Love! Love! Love!

Perfect Venue

Firefly Gardens was our top choice when looking for a wedding venue, and we are so lucky we were able to book with them! The venue is truly gorgeous - so many of our guests complimented the venue! We had our ceremony outside and reception inside, and it worked perfectly. The owners were great to work with both leading up to the wedding and the day of - they were so helpful with recommendations and really helped bring our ideas to life. If you are considering Firefly, go tour it and I'm sure you will fall in love just like we did! We are so glad we chose Firefly Gardens for our wedding day!

Stunning Location!

Firefly Gardens is absolutely stunning. We did the package that included the house, barn, and main venue. I would highly recommend this. Getting ready in the house with the girls was so much fun & had so much room for make up artists, hair stylist, hanging out, etc. The main venue area has huge windows that are breathtaking! This venue is beautiful enough on its own and when you add all of your own touches of decor, it just sparkles! I cant imagine not having our wedding here! They were the biggest blessing & their team was beyond helpful. We are so thankful for them & our amazing experience here!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
