From the reviews
I genuinely don't know where to start with saying how much we loved being Dragonfly brides! When my wife and I were looking at options for our wedding, there really wasn't a question of what venue we loved the most. Every picture made it look magical, and then we toured and we really felt it.
Dragonfly is easily the BEST wedding venue in Southern Illinois. It is a gorgeous setting with lots of space and items available to use at no extra cost. The house for my girls and the downstairs room for the boys was amazing and we loved having our own space to get ready in.
I cannot suggest this venue highly enough. From the moment my husband and I drove through the gates of the venue we were sold. Ana made everything easier, from the million phone calls and questions, several trips to the venue for "research", to the actual wedding day.
It's hard to decide where to start! We could not have made a better choice for our wedding venue... We fell in love with this venue the minute we saw it, but what really sold us on it was the sheer flexibility they provide. Dragonfly made sure our wedding would be everything we hoped for.
Getting married at Dragonfly Wedding Venue
Dragonfly Wedding Venue comes up for weddings — confirmed on their own site. Two things make the tour worth the drive. First, see it at the time of day you'd actually get married — a barn that glows at golden hour can feel very different at noon, and you'll want to walk the path your guests take from parking to ceremony to reception. Second, bring your real questions: the rain plan (where does the ceremony move?), the catering and bar policy, the music curfew, and exactly what's included with the rental — tables, chairs, setup, and teardown are where quotes quietly diverge. Popular dates at barn venues book 12–18 months out, so if the tour feels right, ask what's open in your season before you leave.
