WaConDa Woods & Gardens is a barn and farm wedding venue situated in Union, Nebraska. Perched on 40-acres of private woodland, this naturalistic site is ideal for those seeking to escape the hustle and bustle of the big city. With a range of indoor and outdoor event spaces, couples can create the celebration they’ve always dreamed of at this expansive site.

Facilities and Capacity

Whether you envision an intimate ceremony within the woods or a rustic reception at the old barn, this venue can play host to your unforgettable occasion. For those seeking an outdoor space for their ceremony and reception, the site’s expansive grounds can accommodate festivities of up to 150 guests. There are endless ceremony sites depending on the number of your gathering. In the past, couples have configured the private lawns for tranquil ceremonies. With views of the forest, couples can exchange vows in the presence of nature and their loved ones. Post-ceremony photo sessions can also take place in the site’s horse stables. Decorated with intimate lighting and wedding signage, these renovated stables make for a great setting to create cherished photos. Outdoor receptions can also take place on the site. There is ample space for tents, live entertainment, a dance floor, and more. Couples and their guests can rejoice in harmony as the hazy sun sets over the woods and your blissful day. Receptions may also be arranged within the old barn. Featuring high ceilings, wooden beams, and white-washed walls, this event space acts as a blank canvas for you to design. The barn can be conjured in a variety of ways and has enough space for seated guests, a dance floor, and live entertainment. Further facilities include the Schoolhouse and a camping site. The house has been refurbished to host both wedding parties before the big moment arrives. Both entourages can relax on comfortable furniture and slowly get ready as they look forward to the celebrations ahead. The camping site is ideal for overnight guests who picture gazing up at the stars at the end of an incredible night.

1000% recommend!!

We got married here September 28th and I cannot say enough great things about this venue! From the first time we established contact up until wedding day, Kim and MaKenna were fantastic. Makenna quickly answered all questions we had leading up to our wedding and came up with solutions to any hiccups we had that day. The venue itself is absolutely beautiful and has so many different fun and unique photo opportunities. The bride & groom suites made getting ready on site so much fun and stress free. If you’re looking for a wedding venue, I absolutely recommend this one!

An outdoor wedding dream

The team at WaConDa Woods & Gardens made our wedding planning process a breeze and the day itself was completely stress-free on our end — everything a bride could hope for! They gave us great vendor recommendations and were always super prompt to respond to any questions we had. Perhaps what sets WW&G apart most is they (currently) only take one wedding per weekend, which provided us so much flexibility to set up a day in advance and finish tearing down the next morning, unlike other venues with stricter time limits. Saying our vows under the trees surrounded by loved ones is a memory I'll never forget. WW&G will go the extra mile for you and I can't thank them enough for helping bring our wedding vision to life!
