Blue bell farm

“Away from the clamor of the city — but not too far — three hundred acres of rolling landscape rich with scenic prairies, forests, and waterways welcome you to wander and recharge. Whether you're celebrating one of life's most important moments, joining us for a cottage getaway, or attending a corporate retreat, the opportunities for adventure and relaxation are endless. Pamper yourself with a private or group yoga session, hike into the forest and enjoy a picnic or stargaze by the fire after sundown. We invite you to be as active or restful as your heart desires.”

There’s a reason that Blue Bell Farm is one of our favorite venues. In fact, there are many reasons. When you take the scenic drive for the first time, you can’t help but look around at the beautiful landscape. Not only is the property absolutely incredible, they have tons of parking. There are numerous perfect areas for a ceremony, and receptions can be both indoor and outdoor. Blue Bell has a fully stocked bar with luxurious seating, all of the tables and chairs you need, a fully operational catering kitchen that we love to use, and one of the coolest covered patio spaces in mid-Missouri. We could go on and on, but you just need to see it for yourself. Contact Us if you’re interested in setting up a tour, and we will be happy to walk the space and tell you all about what we can do there!

Sager Reeves Gallery

“Sager Reeves Gallery is situated in the heart of Columbia, Missouri’s North Village Arts District and features rotating monthly exhibits of regionally, nationally, and internationally acclaimed artists, curated with the driven imperative of community enrichment through visual art. Represented artists range from mid-century masters—such as Pablo Picasso and Leonor Fini—to emerging and established contemporary artists working in diverse media including painting, drawing, metal, fiber, wood, glass, printmaking, photography, and combinations thereof.”

Talk about non-traditional event venues, Sager Reeves Gallery is not only a Columbia Landmark but also an incredible venue for a wide range of events. Most frequently, we use the Gallery for Wedding Rehearsal Dinners, Wedding Receptions, Anniversary, and Birthday Parties. Sager Reeves offers a long list of amenities that come along with booking their space. They offer chairs, tables, expediting tables, ice machine and bins, and an artisan rolling bar. Top all of that off with an aesthetic unlike any other and a super cool staff to work with, and Sager Braudis certainly sits among the top venues in Columbia that we love to work with. Contact Us if you’re interested in setting up a tour, and we will be happy to walk the space and tell you all about what we can do there. In the mean time, stop by and check out their most current exhibits. First Fridays are always a great time to hang out and see what local artists are into!

Wildcliff Event Venue 

“What was once established as the McDowell Rock Quarry, has now become a premiere outdoor venue for Mid-Missouri. During the late 1890s, a dynamite blast hit an underground spring that filled the quarry and would eventually shut down operations. Later the property opened to the public as Wildcliff Campground & Resort. Families all over the mid-west came to camp and swim among the exposed cliffs and clear blue lake. In 1986, the campground closed and Wildcliff soon became a private residence to the Danner Family. Over the last years, Wildcliff has hosted numerous family and community events with landscape that is unmatched to anything Mid-Missouri has to offer.

With over 300 acres of developed and natural landscape,you can find multiple locations to host your big event.”

While they’ve definitely said it best right there on their website, we still have endless things to say about Wildcliff. Unbelievable views, incredibly blue water, rope-pulled ferry, natural cliff-side cave, and truly the best people running it! Hannah and Austin are true professionals that bring Southern Hospitality to the Midwest. They are so much fun to work with, and we watch every time as they make each event a family affair. They personally make sure that every detail of each event is perfect, and they’re smiling the whole time.

Wildcliff features an incomparable view at their outdoor venue, and offer an absolutely gorgeous indoor venue in the middle of Historic Downtown Blackwater, MO. We get excited every single time we get the opportunity to cater to Wildcliff, and would LOVE to set up a time to show you everything they have to offer. Contact Us and we will tell you even more!

Emerson Fields

If you are looking for a tailored ceremony and personalized celebration that focuses on your love for one another then you are looking for Emerson Fields.”

Yet another unbelievable venue with incredible views, Emerson Fields is absolutely one of our favorite venues in Central Missouri. One of the things that sets this venue apart from many others, is the attention to detail in its construction. Owners Amelia and Steve have put incredible thought into their venue and have used their experience in the industry to make it a near perfect experience. Amelia, a professional Wedding Photographer, designed the space to take the most incredible pictures. Full of natural light and massive windows, Emerson Fields is filled with perfect looks. The Sun sets in just the right place, their patio that extends out over the pond is a perfect ceremony spot, and their brand new outdoor pavilion placed in the middle of a field of wheat is breath taking. Take all of that, and top it off with a MASSIVE kitchen, professionally designed Bar, and in-house tables and chairs, and you’ve got a venue that we absolutely love to work with. Contact Us to set up a tour and we will show you everything we love most about Emerson Fields.
