we had the most fantastic experience with our wedding at walnut grove event center! the family was so kind and accommodating to us, and our guests kept coming up to us and mentioning how beautiful and fun the place was. even my vendors that had never been there said nothing but great things! since cell service was limited, all of our guests were not sitting on their phones during down times and actually engaged with games and other guests, so to us that was a positive! we couldn't image spending our day anywhere else, and we wish we could relive it just to have all that fun again!

Beautiful center! Did a wedding cake and cupcakes for a friend here. This place supplies everything you could need to decorate for any event. Beautiful barn set up. Two kitchens to use.

Walnut Grove Event Center was a perfect place for prom! They were accommodating, personable and kind. Their family was so helpful. They even helped guests from their cars to the entrance. They also helped with miscellaneous stuff the entire day including helping us and the vendors set up. I had specific instructions for the venue to be locked while I was away so no one could enter without supervision, and they did just that. Great venue!

What a great place. Hands down a great experience for my daughter's wedding. Cell service is limited and is wonderful seeing people not on their cell phones and enjoying the night. Would highly recommend this place for your next event.
