Kindred Barn at Essie Lane Farm

The most beautiful place! Every space is absolutely gorgeous, and there is so much attention to detail throughout the entire property. Sister florals (in-house florist at Kindred Barn) did the florals for our wedding, and they were just stunning. Everything about Kindred Barn is just so perfect. 11/10 would recommend this wedding venue to anyone looking for the best space for a wedding, reception, or any other type of event. Kindred Barn made our wedding more perfect than I ever could have imagined 🫶 Also, gotta shout out their in-house catering, Joey's pizza and pasta can't be topped!!

What a venue! From our first visit we just knew Kindred Barn was the place for my daughter’s wedding. It checked all the boxes on her wish list from the outdoor ceremony spaces to the bridal suites and the barn itself. It’s definitely a drive from NWA but just a fun space that was the perfect backdrop to my daughter’s perfect day. We selected the weekender package and had no regrets. Being able to set up the reception space the day before the wedding and use all the facilities for the bridal party removed so much stress! Gabby was a dream to work with. She responded to all our questions quickly and with great detail. I knew exactly where we stood in the planning and payment process from the beginning. Such a kind soul who put all my worries at ease. We used the Kindred in house services for photography, setup, parking, meal service, cake cutting and clean up. Blake with Pesetsky Photo was phenomenal. He took the engagement photos as well as the wedding day photos. His in-depth knowledge of the facility provided us with unique places to take the pictures. He worked quickly, got all the shots we wanted and so many we didn’t know we wanted. We’ve only seen sneak peaks from the wedding but they are amazing and I have no reason to believe the rest will not be just as good. The 3 helpers we worked with truly had a servant’s heart. Our guests needs were met with smiling faces and helpful hands. They saw a need and filled the need often without us asking them to do so and without it being their responsibility. What a gift! Big and little things were taken care of so efficiently and with the best attitudes. Such polite individuals. They made the night just perfect. The venue had everything we needed. While we didn’t use it, the supply closet was full of great items so I would encourage folks to look their first. The tables and chairs were super sturdy and even with 10 people per table it was not cramped. Several of our guest commented about the comfort of the chairs and how they were not like the narrow chairs a lot of venues offer. My daughter and her bridesmaids made the 2nd floor their home for the weekend. It had everything they needed. Plenty of space for them to celebrate, rest and get dressed. It was so nice having that available onsite! Our son in law and his groomsmen stayed in the Man Cave and also had a great time. Being from NWA it was so nice that they could all stay on property with plenty of room while not having to worry about running into each other before the ceremony. I just can’t say enough about Kindred Barn. We don’t have any more weddings in our future but if we did, we would 100% use them again.
