I had my dream wedding at Bluestem Farm and events and it so special and unique. Kelly (wedding venue owner) was willing to take on title of our “wedding planner” just less than a month away from our wedding because previous wedding planner unfortunately didn’t meet expectations. She was our saving grace. She was so responsive, flexible, knowledgeable, and helpful throughout the whole process but especially when we made the decision to have her as our wedding planner. My wedding day was so smooth and seamless and I cannot be more grateful for her. The venue itself was perfect for ceremony and reception. We received so many compliments about how beautiful the venue was. The prairie reserve behind us during our ceremony was breathtaking during our September wedding because the field looks like gold- it was my favorite view! The venue is perfect and the owner is even better to work with!

I was a guest and the sister of the groom. I'm taking some time from my busy schedule to leave this review. First & foremost Kelly the Owner was an incredible host. She was nonstop accommodating my sister-in-law and meeting all her expectations. The venue is incredibly gorgeous! The private Bridal & groom suites were just perfect. Thanks, Mrs.Kelly for everything. I would highly recommend it.

My husband and I viewed Bluestem Farms during the big wedding boom! Kelly was excellent, she answered all of our questions told us what season is her favorite at the venue and how things will work for the day of. We ended up putting our downpayment later that day for our wedding day.Kelly was really flexible. She let us do a payment plan which made our wedding so much more possible. There was even a month that I was a couple days late on the money getting to her because of the mail and all that, but I communicated it all to Kelly and she was very understanding.We had an option to do a rehearsal at the venue but it was the Thursday before the wedding. Although this was a nice option for us, we already planned our rehearsal dinner for the Friday before the wedding. I know in 2024 it will be different as when you book the venue, it will be for the entire weekend instead of just the day.The day of the wedding was perfect! Kelly was there all day with us. She was around helping us make the venue into our dream venue. We rented the China and she placed them all on the tables while we were getting ready. Our wedding day was really windy, windier than expected. Kelly helped us figure out how we will have our ceremony decor outside without it being blown away or broken!I cannot recommend this venue enough!

Bluestem is the perfect venue! It has everything you need in one place: getting ready areas for bride and groom, an outdoor ceremony area that is shaded by beautiful trees, a outdoor patio, room for yard games, a beautiful cocktail area, and stunning reception area. The venue is full of stunning spots for wedding photos. I couldn’t be happier with choosing Bluestem as our wedding venue! Kelly thank you so much for everything!!

Nice venue for a wedding. Elevator available for people with physical limitations. The only inconvenience was bar and restroom were downstairs, and party was upstairs. Having the bar downstairs (no servers) separates the party crowd. Most people hung out downstairs by the bar. Dancing and activities were upstairs. Lost a lot of the guests to the bar so no one really hung out upstairs where DJ was set up. Downstairs too small to hold large crowds.

Bluestem has captured our hearts with its stunning rustic ambiance and irresistible charm. The staff is unfailingly friendly, and we are eagerly anticipating our next visit. We highly recommend this venue for anyone planning a wedding.

If you are looking for a venue for your wedding please choose Bluestem. Kelly was a Gardian angel and was there at all times. She made my wedding night so perfect.I'm forever in her debt with how helpful she was.when it comes to choosing catering DO NOT go with 31 north banquets.I hate to say disappointed in the service that I had received on my wedding day from the catering. I knew it was my fault for not showing up for the ten day tasting for the food for that it is on me that the food was not good.The Hors D'oeuvre were probably the best part. The steak tasted like it was boiled had no seasoning and was absolutely disgusting. Absolutely no char marks and over cooked. The Potatoes tasted like it had all the seasoning on it.The bread was dry hawaiian buns...I had noticed that cake was partially being served because people had told me they did not receive any but Other people did.. The groom and I did not receive a piece.I went into the back area expressing my concern about the food and the fact that I was not served a piece of my own cake.. They're excuse was you cut your own slice why would we have to bring you one. I had expressed to them that I had cut the tiniest sliver of the cake because I didn't want to take away from the rest of my guest. And knew You Guys Were Gonna bring me another slice.After I had brought that up to them they did not bring out any more cake. The cake was then served at 9 o'clock with the pizza.Half my guest did not receive dinner and more than eighty five percent of my guests did not receive cake.I was told by multiple people That they did not receive more food once all the food was gone at their table but yet I came home with containers of food.The only good part about the service we received was the bar. The bartenders were absolutely amazing and they followed every instruction that was given to them..I am disappointed because I had put 10700. Somethin dollars into this catering in hopes of you guys doing an amazing job because this is not the first time you've done it.I am requesting compensation for the discrepancies and the terrible service and the terrible food.I've been arguing with Bernice the owner of 31 north banquets for a week now and she's extremely unprofessional and ignorant to the situation. She refuses to take responsibility and refuses to correct the issue but instead points her finger. Catering should not have cost me $10,700 for 110 people for bland food and mediocre service.UPDATE: The Owner of 31 North Banquets Bernice has officially ghosted. She has ignored all my guests concerns. Removed all my guests reviews on google about her service.Please if you are planning any event do your research first.

1 word, INCREDIBLE! This venue is gorgeous, inside and out - the landscape is beautiful and covered in tall trees/colorful flowers. Kelly, the owner, is so thoughtful, polite and kind. She was on top of everything throughout our entire experience from meeting with her during the tour to asking questions along the way and during the entire wedding, she was there helping every step of the way. This venue is very accommodating and has back up plans just in case weather/plans go astray. We had our ceramony out in their field, cocktail hour in the lower region of the farm and reception upstairs - it was a dream, everyone was so comfortable and relaxed and we loved every minute of it. We 100% recommend the Bluestem Farm & Events!

Bluestem hosted my wedding last weekend and it couldn't have been a more perfect day. The owner, Kelly, is an absolute delight to work with and is so on top of everything. Our wedding day went perfectly thanks to her incredible knowledge and staff. All of our guests loved the venue to! They raved about the beautiful barn, the spacious grounds, and loved the tractor that was brought out for everyone to take photos with. All in all, the perfect venue for our perfect day. I can't recommend Bluestem enough for future couples! You can't go wrong working with Kelly and her team.The bridal and grooms suites are perfect for getting ready in the morning, with so much space so no one feels cramped. We have probably a dozen people in each suite at one point between vendors helping out and bridal party members but there was room for all.

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!

Our friends and family kept commenting that the venue was so unique and stunning! We would DEFINITELY recommend working with Kelly and her team. They did a fantastic job and made us feel super comfortable and special throughout our experience!
