Everything about my wedding day at Prairie Chapel Place was perfect! The cottage where my bridesmaids and I got ready was cozy and absolutely stunning for pictures. There were multiple rooms, so the flower girls could nap right before the wedding and there was plenty of space for everyone to be comfortable! The venue is located in the peaceful countryside where nature does a lot of the work! There are so many windows that allow the sun to glimmer inside the venue and make the chandeliers sparkle! The venue was very spacious, clean, elegant, and timeless! There is not much you have to do to make this place beautiful. Everything was communicated smoothly and easily so that the wedding day was effortless and perfect!!!

Because your love story deserves something real, joyful, and unforgettable. Weddings here aren’t staged or stiff — they’re full of charm, nature, and a few unexpected animal guests. Say your vows under a big oak tree or in a cozy barn while donkeys peek in and cows moo in approval. You get the entire farm to yourself — no rushed schedules or sharing the space. Just you, your people, and a whole lot of heart. Our animals bring laughter, surprise, and personality to your big day. It’s peaceful, quirky, and filled with photo ops you can’t plan — like a goat crashing your first dance. Stay overnight in the barn apartment or cottage and wake up to donkeys on your porch. It’s more than a wedding venue — it’s an experience. If you want a wedding that’s personal, playful, and totally you, the Funny Farm is waiting.
