A beautiful venue, both inside and outside, and fantastic people to work with!!

One of the best decisions we made for our wedding was choosing The Ballroom as our venue! The entire place is just gorgeous, both inside and outside. We had the ceremony outside (and it lined up perfectly with golden hour so the pictures were STUNNING) and then the reception inside. The adjacent house where the girls got ready on the morning of had so much space and perfect natural lighting, and it even had a cool area upstairs where the guys could to relax before the ceremony. Our coordinator, Brooke, was a literal lifesaver and we could not have done it without her! She was so helpful, and the best part about her is that you can tell she is truly excited about weddings -- and her positive energy is contagious! She, along with the rest of the staff, made the entire night run so smoothly. Everyone there was friendly and energetic, and they all helped make our wedding so perfect. Overall, the venue is truly beautiful and it really a great canvas that you can personalize to fit any theme or vibe. I would absolutely recommend this venue to anyone who wants to get married!!

The dreamiest setting for our best day ever!

From the courtyard, to the ballroom, to the bridal party house, every detail of this venue is well thought out, absolutely immaculate and perfectly gorgeous. I knew the minute that I drove onto the property that I wanted to have our wedding there and I would highly recommend this venue to any bride & groom.

My girls and I stayed in the bridal suite the night before and it was such a perfect space for brunch on the morning of our wedding. Plus the guys loved playing football and frisbee in the yard out front before getting ready.

The courtyard was perfect for our sunset, summer ceremony and then we danced, dined and celebrated in the ballroom for the reception. Even before adding flowers, furniture and other decor, this venue was beautiful and needed no help to let you know it!

The Ballroom at I Street will FOREVER hold a special place in my heart. My husband and I had the best day of our lives here and I can't say enough about the team. Book them now :)

Better than we could have asked for!

After touring the Ballroom for the first time, my fiancé and I immediately knew we wanted to have our wedding here. Not only is the actual ballroom absolutely stunning with its gigantic chandeliers, quartz bar top, and clean white walls, but the outdoor area, and bridal house are amazing. Danise and Breann (a mother-daughter duo) were so good and easy to work with. They truly wanted to help me create my dream wedding, and were there to answer any questions I had. We had the max amount of guests at the wedding, and they were very accommodating of our needs. The space was the perfect size. There is not a single thing we would have changed about the venue or our experience. We LOVE the Ballroom. And we love Danise and Breann! If you are getting married or having an event in the NWA area, the Ballroom is the place you want to be!

Beautiful space! Great party!

We loved having our reception here!
The Ballroom offers a whole day of access to the space where you have have your wedding, reception, whatever you want. We had our wedding ceremony at a different venue, but did everything else here! We spent the morning getting ready at the B&B, did our first look and family pictures in the attached yard, and hosted our reception here.
The only drawback to the Ballroom if you're not much of a planner is that they do not provide items like linens, china, decor, etc. All of those items will need to be out-sourced to another vendor. This was not an issue for us - we coordinated with all of our vendors to arrive first thing in the morning and set everything up quickly. Due to the Ballroom's popularity, you cannot drop your items off the day before, but the staff is very helpful and makes setup go quickly the day of your event.
Everyone that attended our wedding loved the space and how beautiful everything looked, and had a great time! Overall, I would recommend the Ballroom to anyone looking to have an elegant, beautiful and fun wedding day! I wouldn't change anything about our wedding and would choose the Ballroom again!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
