Joni Kuhn
Owner
Dallas native, Graduate of SMU. Was a flight instructor at Addison Airport. Animals have been in my life for as long as I can remember, ever since my father bought a small orange pony, I named him Pumpkin. After purchasing Bella Cavalli, I continued buy and enjoying animals like Pork Chop the 500lb pig and the cutest Alpacas, Tango and Cha Cha. I recently retired my "Hunger Games " Friesian Horses from the horse show world and so putting them in weddings was a perfect fit. All of my animals including the Beer Burros, my mini spotted donkeys all love the parties and people. People love them.

We hosted our wedding reception at Bella Cavalli in May, and to this day, we continue to be in awe by how amazing the venue is. When we first visited while exploring wedding venue options, we knew we had to host our wedding reception here. From the main entrance to the Carriage House, we were taken aback by how stunning the grounds were.
Joni and her staff were very professional and attentive throughout the planning process and during the wedding reception. They were all so easy to work with, and they answered any questions we had in a timely manner. They also gave us timely notifications of when payments were due, so their correspondences helped ensure that there were no unpleasant surprises leading up to the big day.
The day of the wedding itself could not have gone any better. The weather was perfect and the reception was so beautiful. We utilized the bistro garden for our pre-reception cocktail hour as well as the beer burros, and we received so many compliments from our guests as to how gorgeous the venue was and how much fun everyone had at cocktail hour and throughout the reception. After the sendoff, we stayed overnight at the Coach House, which was a great option for us following a day full of excitement and wonderful memories.
We are so thankful to have chosen Bella Cavalli to host our wedding reception and appreciative for the professionalism exhibited by Joni and her team. Everything exceeded our expectations, and we 100% recommend Bella Cavalli as a wedding venue. Thanks so much for an unforgettable day!

Bella Cavalli is such an amazing venue! I just had my wedding and the whole day was magical! Many of my guests have told me my wedding was the best they have ever been to, and this is thanks to my amazing venue! The guests absolutely loved seeing me ride in with my dad on the horse and carriage and ride away with my husband! The donkeys are seriously the reason why I booked the venue. They are the cutest! I booked an off peak month on a Sunday so that I could stay within budget and I have no regrets! The staff at the venue respond to emails so quickly during business hours and everyone is so kind. Thank you for making my wedding day a memory I will cherish forever!

Where do I even start…. First off, the staff was so friendly and efficient! They put in so much effort to make our day perfect. The views, the atmosphere inside the venue, everything was perfect. The owner Joni was so kind and being around her and the staff felt like being around family. Not to be cheesy but that’s how warm and welcoming everyone was. I will recommend Bella Cavalli to any of my friends that are getting married❤️

We couldn’t be happier with our experience at Bella Cavalli! From the start, the team was welcoming and inclusive, making us feel truly celebrated as a same-sex couple. The venue itself is stunning, and the staff’s attention to detail was impeccable.
When weather threw us a curveball, the team quickly pivoted to create an alternate ceremony site that was just as magical. Their coordination and professionalism ensured everything went off without a hitch. We are so grateful to Bella Cavalli for making our wedding day unforgettable and stress-free. Highly recommend this incredible venue to anyone planning their special day!

I knew when I toured Bella Cavalli that it was where I wanted to be married. We toured several other options but nothing could skew my line of sight. Joni and her staff were so delightful to work with and very professional. Their animals and variety of ceremony sites really makes them one of a kind. I love how quiet the property was and that it was still close to Denton and the DFW metroplex. 10/10 would recommend.

We fell in love with this venue the second we drove on to the property. It was so beautiful and we were greeted by a herd of Great Pyrenees dogs that are the sweetest pups ever! We were fist helped by Megan when we took our first tour and she was amazing and so friendly and then had the pleasure of working with Carly for my final details who was just as helpful and supportive!
Every girl in the office was so sweet and helpful through the entire process. The venue itself is beautiful. The bridal suite was perfect and had plenty of room for my 6 bridesmaids and myself to get hair and. make up done. Also having the extra house on the property for the groomsmen to get ready at made it even more convenient for us. I would recommend this venue to anyone looking to have an amazing and beautiful wedding. There are several ceremony sites they offer on the property. We chose the ceremony circle which was so perfect and romantic at sunset. We also chose to have the beer burrows for our cocktail hour and I think they may have been the stars of the show more than my husband and I. Overall it was an amazing experience at this venue and with all of the staff. Everyone was extremely accommodating and I can’t thank them enough for helping make our special day perfect!!

Bella Cavalli is beautiful. They are very responsive and help answer any questions you may have. The reason why I am giving this venue four stars and not five is because, I wish they would have communicated with us how getting married on the circle would have challenges. My entire side of the family had to sit on the sunny side, and they could not see a thing. My family practically missed the entire ceremony. If I would have known this, I would have bought umbrellas.
response 09/25/2024

he sun sets late in the afternoon. We do not advertise that any of the ceremony sites will be shaded at the ceremony time. We do offer a wooded option which does offer some shade in the late afternoon. We were not aware being in a sunny space was a concern. Couples book weddings all year long and during the summer months outdoors without issues, enduring the heat and sun, but they enjoy the benefits of the beautiful views and pictures that our property offers. We appreciate the trust in Bella Cavalli to host your event and are so glad you were happy with our services and communication during your process.

This venue could not be more beautiful. We received so many compliments specifically about the venue because of how beautiful it was and how cool the animals on the property were. Everyone who works there is so sweet and more than willing to help answer questions or give recommendations for vendors, etc. I thoroughly enjoyed having my reception at Bella Cavalli and couldn't recommend it more!

Bella Cavalli was everything and more! When I toured the. venue I knew instantly this is where I wanted to get married. The venue just felt so peaceful and I loved that it was tucked back from the road.
The staff was so easy to work with and so accommodating. For our wedding day we dealt with weather issues and everyone that was on staff was able to make changes just like that!
Joni and her staff made our day very special! I would recommend this venue to anyone!

Bella Cavalli is an absolutely stunning venue…130 acres with lakeside views, tree groves, meadows, animal farm and a carriage house thoughtfully constructed specifically for wedding celebrations. Once we toured this beautiful estate, we did not have eyes for any other venue….it was that magical!
But beyond the beauty of the property, it was Joni and her staff at Bella Cavalli that really made the difference. Whereas many of the other venues we toured were restrictive and only allowed their own caterers or wedding planners (or they assessed exorbitant up-
charges), Joni, allowed us, in most cases, to choose our own vendors (security and bar vendors were understandably the exception). This was important to us because ours was a multi-day Hindu/Gujarati wedding with four separate and unique events and we needed specialized vendors. The BC team had a can do attitude when it came to requests unique to our celebrations.
The actual days of the celebrations were glorious. We had a party of close to 200 guests, but even so, the venue had an intimate vibe. The first night all the garage doors were open and the food and bar was served on the patio. Some of the highlights beyond the ceremonies and the food, were the family dances performed inside the carriage house, the alpaca photo opportunities and the petting zoo, especially for all the kids in attendance. Mother nature gave us many blessings of lots of rain the second day so last minute adjustments were made to move the wedding underneath the patio and the food for the reception indoors. Honestly it seemed to add an even more festive feel; it was two days filled with fun laughter, joy and lots of love.
Thank you Bella Cavalli….our wedding was everything we wanted it to be and much more!!

I recently had the pleasure of hosting my wedding at Bella Cavalli in September and I must say, it exceeded all expectations. From the moment we toured the venue to the last dance of the night, everything was flawless. We even stayed on the property and spent our wedding night and first morning as newlyweds on the property. Firstly, the setting was breathtaking. Nestled in Aubrey, it offered stunning views that served as a picturesque backdrop for our special day. The well-manicured gardens and beautiful animals added a special touch of charm. The staff at Bella Cavalli were exceptional. They were professional, attentive, and went above and beyond to ensure every detail was taken care of. From the planning stages to the actual event, Joni and her team were always available to answer questions and offer guidance. One of the standout features of Bella Cavalli was their flexibility. They were able to accommodate our specific requests and were open to customizing aspects of the wedding to reflect our vision. This made the entire experience feel personal and unique.
Overall, I couldn't have asked for a better wedding venue. Bella Cavalli truly made our special day unforgettable, and I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a magical and memorable wedding experience.

We hosted our wedding at Bella Cavalli and it was literally the best day of our lives! It’s SO beautiful and they have the cutest animals and a really great staff! Kaira, Lainey, Joni were all super responsive, sweet, and made wedding planning easy. (Which is really hard to do LOL) They let us tour the venue with unlimited visits up until our day, as long as there wasn’t a wedding. I am so thankful for all of them and not only that but all their recommendations on vendors were outstanding and couldn’t have asked for a better team. We received SO many compliments about how beautiful the venue was and just couldn’t imagine having our special day anywhere else! Thank you Bella Cavalli!!

From the second we drove up the drive way we knew that Bella Cavalli was the venue we would choose! We cancelled every other tour we had at other venues after visiting and Bella Cavalli was the first one we went to. It's so Beautiful and there are tons of options for ceremony sites, cocktail hour, add ons etc. The animals were perfect for our guests and the children. And the honey moon sweet was a perfect option for us! The staff is so kind and make sure to help and answer any question you have. Our guests still tell us how amazing of a venue it was !

An amazing venue! My daughter just got married here and we cannot recommend it enough. Great location, beautiful inside area and outside areas, The views are simply amazing. The staff members are not only highly skilled and knowledgeable, but also uphold the highest standards of professionalism and honesty, On the day of the event, we needed help from the venue staff. They where more than willing to assist in resolving the issue, providing different options and coming up with a solid plan. Despite the situation being out of their hands, we have great respect for the owner and staff. Jodi, the owner acted quickly in addressing the problem, showing absolute honesty and integrity. We are truly grateful to Jodi and her staff.

Bella Cavalli is such a beautiful venue! As a wedding photographer myself, it quickly became one of my favorites in DFW after getting to shoot there last year. When I got engaged, it was at the top of my list and they did not disappoint! Our guests absolutely loved the experience, and kept complimenting us on how pretty it was! We also loved the staff and the booking process.

Bella Cavalli is the best place in DFW to have your wedding. We toured about 8 venues and once we saw this one we knew it was the one. Besides the gorgeous property, adorable animals, romantic setting, amazing amenities, and accessible spaces, Bella Cavalli has a top notch team that thinks of everything you could need. They went above and beyond to make sure our wedding had no bumps in the road. Every time I visited, my heart was just so happy! It was truly a fairy tale to be married here! Thank you Joni for your hospitality, flexibility, and creating this wonderful space to have the best night of our lives!

In our culture, this was the first of a kind wedding and it left everyone stunned.

Bella Cavalli was the absolute most perfect place to get married. From the moment we walked on to the property 9 months ago, and from the moment we exited our wedding we were showered with so much love and support from the whole staff. They were extremely professional, caring and just so excited to celebrate our marriage with us. Any questions we had, they answered quickly. The venue is BREATHTAKING and the animals of course are the cherry on top. With multiple different ceremony sites, you truly get the option to make your wedding special to you and your loved one. I will forever be so thankful that we chose Bella Cavalli as our venue. They made us feel like we were family rather than just another client. I believe that is what truly sets them apart from so many other venues. You will not regret choosing Bella Cavalli!

Y’all… when I tell you I stopped looking at venues after touring Bella Cavalli. I never thought I’d get to have my wedding at an actual wedding venue but the experience we got just touring the place just took my breath away. This was only our 3rd venue that we looked at and immediately knew it was the one. I really wanted something my husband and his people could get ready in without being on top of each other, and this venue has a separate guest house that is exactly that AND doubles up as a honeymoon suite that we definitely took advantage of on our wedding night. We really couldn’t drive anywhere lol! Joni and her team have really taken the time and effort to maintain such a beautiful space. They were also so easy to communicate with!! I am so thankful that I got to live out my fairytale wedding here. I will never get over this day ♥️

We LOVED having our wedding at Bella Cavalli and cannot recommend it enough!! There are so many venues in the DFW area, but I can say after looking at SO many, Bella Cavalli is truly the best of the best.
The space is just beautiful - modern, rustic, GORGEOUS VIEWS. We didn't want to leave the DFW area for our wedding, but we wanted to be away from every day city life so we could truly immerse ourselves in our wedding day, and Bella Cavalli was the perfect oasis to do that! And we got SO many compliments on the venue from our guests.
The staff was so kind and so helpful throughout the whole planning process, you know they truly love what they do. The owner, Joni, even gave us access to the land to take our engagement photos and I'm SO glad we did, because we got to take advantage of every bit of the 300 acres.
We loved that the Groom's Cabin was not only separated from the Bridal Suite/Main building, but that it turned into a honeymoon suite for us overnight!
And the cherry on top was truly the farm animals - STUNNING horses, little goats, a camel, and the donkeys which were part of our cocktail hour serving beers!!

Bella Cavalli is an absolute DREAM of a venue between the gorgeous country views, the elegant white farmhouse building, and the friendly animals. We just had our wedding here in October and it was the perfect setting for our rustic elegance vision, and the golden hour sets perfectly here! We received so many compliments on the venue, and our guests were very entertained by the alpacas, goats, deer, and camel during the cocktail hour! The owner Joni and her staff are very professional, friendly, and amazing to work with. They were so genuine and warm with us in the entirety of our wedding journey, rather than it feeling solely just a business transaction. We felt truly cared for and supported by them in every step of the way. Every penny of ours was worth spending at this venue!

I could not have pictured a more perfect place to get married. The property is gorgeous, and so well cared for. One of the most adorable and unique aspects are the animals! The two Friesian horses can drop you off at the ceremony and even pick you up for a private ride with champaign afterwards! They offer donkeys that bring beer to your guests during cocktail hour, and visits with the most adorable alpacas, mini goats, chickens, ducks deer, multiple dogs and even a camel! But this was far from a petting zoo, the amazing property created the perfect setting for the wedding pictures of my dreams! The owners of the venue were the kindest people and staff did an amazing job of helping me plan the perfect day! They allowed me to hire vendors of my choice which made the entire process so much more tailored to what I wanted. They even have the most adorable cabin to spend your wedding night... AND you get to wake up to an incredible view. I am convinced, you will not find a more well rounded, BEAUTIFUL venue around DFW. 10/10 would recommend for any day of the year. Thank you Bella Cavalli for making my wedding day better than I could have ever dreamed it would be. - Emilee and Jake 11.10.2022

We booked our wedding in June 2021 and got married at BCE November 2022! BCE was our dream venue - as soon as we toured the property, we knew it was the venue for us. Joni, the owner, is so incredibly kind and willing to help in any way. She responds to all messages in a timely manner, any time of day. Our venue coordinator was Kaira and we absolutely adored her. She has the best personality and is extremely professional. The venue grounds are absolutely gorgeous and there are so many sweet animals on property. We truly appreciate all of the staff at BCE because we had awful weather all morning/afternoon the day of our wedding. The staff was all hands on deck, ready to set up for plan B or plan C since the weather was unpredictable. We highly recommend checking out BCE for your wedding or event!!!

If you're looking for a place to have your wedding and want it to be memorable for yourself and your guests then absolutely put Bella Cavalli on your list of places to take an in person tour of!

Long story short, THIS VENUE IS A HIDDEN GEM. It is extremely unique and beautiful with easy-going and efficient staff. I am trying to come up with the next event I can have here.
BCE (Bella Cavalli Events) is a newer venue, and I am so sure that it will be on the top of every ideal wedding list in the books in the future, so if you find an open day, book it. My husband didn’t want to have a “barn” venue, and although this is on farm land, it’s the most elegant and classy carriage house you’ll find.
I looked at so many venues in FL, GA, Nashville, and Dallas. I had done lots of research online, but only learned about BCE because another venue mentioned it. We were just in town for the day, and while every other venue we toured had strict tour hours and meetings, I called BCE to try to fit a tour in that day, and Joni (owner) told us to show up whenever we could and she’d show us around no problem. Joni greeted us so kindly, and I’m pretty sure she could make friends with literally anyone. She is a very special person.
The venue itself is absolutely stunning. From the immaculate grounds, to the sunset (which I didn’t even realize was so beautiful until the day of!!), our guest RAVED about the venue and land. The animals were a hit, but it wasn’t barn vibes at all. I wish I could hang out there on the weekends and just enjoy the breathtaking land.
The tables and chairs that come with the venue are beautiful, so that saves on rentals and hassle. I had seen so many bridal suites, but this one I actually wanted to hang out and get ready in! The beer burros during cocktail hour were a huge hit! And all the animal staff was great with our guests. We did our ceremony down by the lake instead of ceremony circle, and I am so glad we did. I can’t get that stunning view out of my mind! Since the venue is so beautiful, there’s no need to spend a ton of money on floral or decor. We also opened the glass garage doors during dancing and it was a dream.
All staff at BCE were great to work with. Joni is so easy going (a rarity it seems like for venue owners!) and doesn’t nickel and dime at all. She recommends top-notch vendors as well. They answered all my questions, large or small, via email, or they even sent ideas they think I’d like via Instagram.
This venue was and still is, hands down, my favorite part of our wedding. Not only was it perfect for us, but the staff was EXTREMELY easy to work with and laid back. I truly can’t say enough great things about BCE. It’s a dream venue. Just book it. I just hope I can come back for another event there soon!

Kaira was with us through the whole journey, and Alex came on a few weeks before the wedding. Kaira answered a million questions for me in the months leading up to the wedding. Alex helped with last minute details the month before the wedding, and both girls were there to help throughout our wedding day. They were our ultimate hype girls when we went to the venue a month before to practice our first dance. I had such a pleasure working with them and always felt welcome and heard. I would 100% use Bella Cavalli again if I could do it over!!!

Bella Cavalli was absolutely AMAZING! Every person on staff was incredible. We never had to wait for answers to questions. The venue is absolutely stunning and having an outdoor ceremony in June in Texas isn't easy but Bella Cavalli made it worth the sweat!

This was my fairytale wedding venue. I literally felt like a princess marrying my prince. Joni and her team were amazing. Everything went to plan and they made all my wedding dreams come to life. Everyone talked about my entrance to the alter on the horse and carriage being something they have never seen before. AND BEER DONKEYS!!! That is what sold me on this venue. I HIGHLY Recommend this venue if you are looking for a unique place that makes you feel like a princess!

This venue is beyond incredible. We only visited this venue when we were shopping and we knew there was no point in looking elsewhere because Bella Cavalli had everything we needed and more. Our guests from all over the country / world were in awe of how beautiful the landscape, scenery and the venue itself was. They accommodated our every need, communicated well, the staff helped out above and beyond our expectations and just provided us and our guests with the best time of their lives!

The most beautiful venue! Once we toured we couldn't imagine having our wedding anywhere else. There were some additional costs the came up we weren't aware of at first which probably would have impacted out decision to still have our wedding here, but it would have been nice for them to be a little more up front with ALL the EXTRA costs they require.
response 03/28/2022
Thank you Kelsey for trusting Bella Cavalli Events for your special day. Your wedding day ...
was so beautiful!
To explain our wedding fees, we only have One wedding package for our couples and this includes all tables and chairs for ceremony and reception. There is no tax on the wedding package /venue rental price. We do require a Refundable Damage deposit for each event. Liability insurance is also required($150) and Security ($70 per hour per officer, one officer per 100 guests) We have all of these costs listed in the wedding package and contract . We do not like to add on fee's to our couples events and we try to be very transparent and upfront for any extra costs. We also provide all the ice for your event, so couples do not need to purchase ice.
I hope this clarify's the fees mentioned in this review.

Bella Cavalli is such a beautiful venue. Our wedding was an absolute DREAM. I am 1000000% pleased with every single thing about this venue and the amazing employees and owner. Everyone worked so hard to help ensure our special day was perfect and it did not go unnoticed! Thank you for creating a venue that felt like home and also the animals were such a hit to incorporate into the wedding! Wish I could do it all again a million times, best day ever!

We toured Bella Cavalli and immediately cancelled all other venue tours we had scheduled for that week. This was the venue of our dreams and with Joni at the helm, our wedding day was executed to perfection. From sweeping scenic views, to the rustic modern barn, to the full array of incredible animals our guest were beside themselves witnessing our wedding venue. It really is hard to believe they've only been open for a couple of years with the way they run things at Bella. Our wedding process was so efficient and went off without a single hiccup.
On top of that they hosted an incredible vendor day where we found many of our fantastic wedding vendors! You truly can't beat this incredible venue.

The first time I toured Bella Cavalli, I knew it was the wedding venue of my dreams. My husband and I fell in love, and we didn’t even tour any other venue and booked the same day. The team at Bella Cavalli make sure you get what your vision is for your dream ceremony, cocktail hour to reception is. I couldn’t have picked a better venue, the bridal suite is in a convenient spot and is so beautiful and elegant. The grooms suite includes their whole house and kitchen which is separate from the reception building which give the grooms party to explore outside of the venue. If you book your event, you can also take bridal pictures there with your photographer and there is just unlimited breathtaking spots to take for pictures. The animals were also a hit and highly recommend using them at your event! Can’t thank enough for the Bella Cavalli team for making our dream wedding come true!

We knew Bella Cavalli was our venue as soon as we drove onto the property for a tour. Not only is it absolutely stunning, but the owner, Joni, was very helpful during the planning process and even checked-in on our wedding day to make sure everything was going smooth. From the gorgeous bridal suite, to the hidden photo gardens, to the ceremony circle and friendly animals, this venue has it all! June 12th was a dream come true thanks to this venue! We love Bella Cavalli!

Joni and her team at Bella Cavalli are some of the best in the business and an absolute pleasure to work with. Our company has the honor of being one of their preferred caterers and we absolutely love working here. Joni built the venue and grounds by scratch and did not spare any expense as is obvious when you tour the property and quickly notice all of the details and immense thought put into it. Logistically it is easy to work there and very vendor friendly.
Don't get me started on the animals and amenities either! I can't think of anywhere else that has what we call "the batcave of luxury horse carriages" to a private aerial runway and the most beautiful and spacious guest house. The bridal suite is stunning and if you want to feel like the only bride in the world then here you go! After working in venues that seem more like a wedding factory, this is the exact opposite.
If you are looking to throw the best party of your life in a LUXURIOUS and PRIVATE setting then look no further! Truly, I cannot say enough amazing things about Joni and Bella Cavalli.

f love for me, my family and staff. My love for the land, and the animals can be seen each day. We love to share our blessings with anyone who wants to come out to Bella Cavalli. We love to see the joy of our clients and their guests faces when they get a kiss from Queen Sheba, the camel or get to pet an alpaca for the first time.
Red Maple is by far the best food any client could ask for. Their food is cooked on site by a 5 star cheif. Their staff is also 5 star and Taylor is wonderful to work with when you decide to book with Red Maple catering. They are the top of their field. If you want the best, pick Red Maple.
Thank you Taylor, your the best.

My husband and I actually booked Bella Cavalli before Joni was even done building the property and we are SO GLAD we did. This is easily one of, if not THE best venues in the DFW area and every single guest was gushing about how beautiful the space and land is, how unique the animals were, and generally how wonderful the venue is. Even my most hard to impress friends were blown away.
Joni and her staff are incredibly accommodating and flexible. She includes so much in the package that you truly do not need much in the way of decor. The building is beautiful enough to speak for itself. 100% would book again and again.

Our daughter was married at Bella Cavalli Events in August 2021. This wedding venue is absolutely stunning with sweeping views of the Texas countryside. The outdoor ceremony took place in front of a lake with an elegant fountain. The special animals on the property delighted the guests and made for incredible photos. The venue is spotless and the surrounding property is gorgeous and well maintained. The owner, Joni, is very professional and easy to work with. This romantic, beautiful wedding venue met all of our expectations.
