Our newly renovated old barn at 1850 Homestead is easily summed up in one word. Authentic. We have a beautiful property & venue in Cambridge,Iowa that has so many things to offer. Indoor/outdoor options, large serving area, bridal suite, grooms suite, bar services, outdoor games & onsite decor rental, PLUS Airbnb accomodations just to list some for you. We can give you a basic venue package and add on a la carte what you need or we can provide an all inclusive package with our trusted vendors. Our venue comes with tables, chairs, black linens, two suites to get ready and we do the set up/clean up.

I always feel blessed when I get to share some photos from our weddings we host at the barn. This was such a great family to work with and we present to you Markie & Jeremy. We appreciate you and wish you a blessed new forever! ❤️❤️

We have so many small details in our venue that kind of go unnoticed. Until someone asks. Our lights are on dimmers, an idea my dad brought to the table. As the night goes on, the music gets turned up and the lights get turned down. Here are some of the many ways we can do.

Aisle lights ✔️
Chandelier ✔️
Beam lighting ✔️

It's time to think of your Holiday plans this week. Then it's time to remember how much family time you will actually have. Thankfully we will be open at the barn Tuesday night (tomorrow) 5pm-7pm to let you come grab some wine! It helps keep the holiday cheer! Come on out to the barn, I'll see you there!
