From the reviews

This place was absolute perfection for what we were looking for! Outdoor ceremony, indoor reception area, rustic feel, getting ready areas on site, decor options if desired, tables and chairs provided, available for our fall wedding date (November 6), outside of Omaha, available to utilize for rehearsal dinner,…

★★★★★ — Cody&Kym, Nov 2021

My wife and I had an amazing experience planning our wedding with the folks at WaConDa Woods and Gardens! From start to finish, everyone was so generous and engaged in ways that felt rare for a business!

★★★★★ — Jordan, Aug 2022

Wow wow wow! WaConDa went above and beyond my expectations for a good wedding venue. Not only is it a beautiful place to host your wedding, as it provides plenty of space for people to explore, kids to play, adults to mingle inside or outside, etc; but it is a venue that seems to desire quality over quantity.

★★★★★ — Addison, Aug 2022

I photographed a wedding at the WaConDa Woods & Gardens and I was blown away with every aspect of the venue and how the day unfolded! The getting ready suite had plenty of room for the girls to get ready, lots of natural light for photos, and even the personal touch of chalk art on the wall.

Getting married at WaConDa Woods & Gardens

WaConDa Woods & Gardens 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.
