Bluestem was truly a dream prior to and on our wedding day! The venue is gorgeous and we had the most amazing sunset on our wedding day. Our guests absolutely loved the outdoor and indoor spaces- there was “a place” for everyone! Kelly who is in charge of everything at the venue was really easy to work with and helped guide us. She did a wonderful job setting everything up and tearing everything down. I really felt like I didn’t have worries on my wedding day because I trusted she would get it done! We used many of the vendors she recommended and everything was great. I would recommend this venue to everyone. It is beautiful and you truly feel like you are in your own little world! Also our pictures at the venue are gorgeous. Can’t say enough!

We were honored to have had our wedding last weekend at Bluestem with Kelly and Kiersten. Kelly was extremely personable, easy to work with, very communicative, and an absolutely amazing team player working well with new to her vendors. The venue is very well maintained and the grounds couldn't have been more green and beautiful! All of our guests were raving about the beauty of the venue and also the laid-back atmosphere that is created by the string light lit patio with patio furniture and fire pit. The day of the wedding, Kelly and Kiersten were constantly helping with the small details, keeping things on track, and making sure things went as smoothly as possible. Having grown up in Hebron, it was special to have been able to get married in my hometown but it was equally as special to have gotten married at such a beautiful venue.

Bluestem farm was the location of my July wedding. It is a beautiful venue with a well kept lawn, a fully restored barn, a gorgeous prairie, and well appointed bridal and groom suites. We wanted to showcase natural splendor as a backdrop for our wedding, and Bluestem is a great choice for others looking to do the same. Our pictures are gorgeous partially because of this gorgeous venue. Kelly, as a venue manager, was easy to get a hold of, a great communicator, and very helpful in the time leading up to our wedding. On the day of our wedding, she and her staff were efficient and professional. The venue itself is gorgeous, but Kelly is a real asset to your wedding planning.

We were so grateful that we picked Bluestem Farm & Events when we had to switch our plans multiple times during the pandemic. Our original wedding was planned for May 2020. We were able to delay our intimate wedding day due to the pandemic to July 2020 since the owner, Kelly, graciously opened up more dates. Kelly also let us split our time between two dates so that we could have our small ceremony in May and also a reception at a future date so that all of our guests could have the option to attend. We had to switch the reception date twice as well- originally it was planned for September 2020, but since the pandemic was not slowing at that point, we delayed the reception again to May 2021. Our wedding testimony just shows how flexible Kelly is and how accommodating she is. Kelly is also very responsive and helpful via email. Sometimes I felt like I had needy requests, but Kelly made them seem like no problem and was so patient. On the day of our events at Bluestem, Kelly was hands-on and making sure everything went smoothly. She helped us problem solve as well. The grounds are just beautiful, and our guests were constantly complementing the venue. Overall, we could not be more grateful for our choice to host our event at Bluestem. We have nothing but good things to say about our experience!
