Stunning and so wonderful to work with!

Red Acre Barn was the absolute most perfect barn for our wedding! I was worried about how red it was, but it truly was perfect. Ashley was so easy and so wonderful to work with, definitely one of the best vendors out there. The property is so large and absolutely stunning, offering so many photo opportunities. All of our guests said it was the most beautiful wedding venue. The team is truly wonderful, and this venue has everything you could need or want. I couldn't recommend it enough!!

Red Acre Barn is a great value and location

I want everyone to know how amazing Ashley and Stacy and their venue (Red Acre Barn) is!! They went above and beyond to make us feel very special and to help make our wedding perfect. Their kindness, attention to detail and quick response anytime someone requested information was truly appreciated. The Barn and the grounds are simply beautiful and it has all the amenities that you will need! Also, they are not crazy expensive as most places are. We definitely recommend their venue to everyone. You won't be sorry!!

A gorgeous, quiet, and scerene country setting only minutes away from West Des Moines!

I highly recommend Red Acre Barn for your wedding and or wedding reception. My husband and I hosted an elopement celebration in July and I couldn't have pictured a more perfect venue. I received a TON of compliments from guest who live in Chicago, Minneapolis, and Kansas City (as well as locally) on how beautiful the venue was. Ashley and Stacey were amazing to work with and one of the things that set's RAB apart from other venues is the use of their decorations is included in the rental fee, where other locations charge you for each decoration you want to use (which can add up extremely fast and be very expensive).

We held our wedding here two weeks ago and it was beautiful. I would call the venue country-chic. It is decorated with barnwood, chandeliers and bistro lights. So many people commented on how much they loved the space. They have an outdoor area for your ceremony, bride and groom's rooms to get ready, nice kitchen space and great bar! We couldn't have been more happy with our selection!!!
