“Beautiful place, we attended a wedding here and would highly recommend!”

From the reviews

We attended a wedding recently in hope to book a walk through for ourselves. Beautiful! Both buildings were exactly what my fiancé is looking for! Needed a bathroom in the corner of the reception for those physically impaired. I will say the dj set is outdated, messy and needs TLC. He sounded like a radio DJ.

Fist time i have been there didn't know the place existed. Very nice place to have a wedding even though it was very warm the barns are air conditioned nicely. Great pace to take pictures with the pond and everything the only disadvantages would be the limited parking and its in a secluded place which can be good and…

What a beautiful, peaceful venue! Comfortable seating for 200-250 people. Climate controlled, wheelchair accessible. Gentle hills, great mix of sunshine and shade. BEAUTIFUL backdrops for photography. The staff was very attentive and accommodating. Who knew the Garden of Eden was so close to the Quad Cities!?

Kali was so awesome to work with! The barn/acreage is a little slice of heaven and was the perfect spot for our wedding! Kali is easy to communicate with, very responsive, very flexible with our wedding wishes and went above & beyond to make our day the best! (Photo credit: Jen Sacia Photography)

Getting married at Livengood’s Barn

Livengood’s Barn 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.
