The Blue Bell Farm Wedding Experience
Your elegant countryside wedding in mid-Missouri awaits
The team at Blue Bell Farm is here to dream about your perfect day right along with you, then help that dream come to life.
This is your celebration of love and of life being lived. A commitment as romantic and exciting as the promise of a life lived together, needs an equally elegant and timeless venue that has the versatility to fit whatever you envision for your celebration.
A ROMANTIC DESTINATION
Blue Bell Farm’s historic beauty and breathtaking views provide the perfect setting for romance and celebration. Your wedding rental includes the exclusive use of the private 300-acre estate, which features an idyllic event barn, bridal cottage, meadows, ponds and lush gardens. We only host one wedding per weekend so the farm will be yours for a full weekend of enjoyment!
PERFECTLY PLANNED
We want the journey to your wedding day to be easy and enjoyable. Our experienced planning team can help you with all of the important details so you can be free to daydream about and live out your special day. We’ll design seating arrangements, nail down timelines, help you select vendors, and so much more!
BEAUTIFUL INSIDE AND OUT
Our outdoor veranda, covered deck and stone patio overlook glistening ponds and meadows, making them ideal locations for your wedding ceremony, cocktail hour or reception. Should the weather not cooperate, our beautiful and spacious event barn provides the perfect alternative to your outdoor plans. Whether your wedding takes place indoors or outside, there is no lack of perfect scenery to serve as the backdrop for your happiest day.
Conveniently Located
Located directly between St. Louis and Kansas City with several accommodations options nearby, the farm offers the best of both worlds. We are secluded enough to feel like a private getaway, while still being conveniently close to both Columbia (an easy 25-minute drive) and Rocheport (just down the road) to keep this destination a breeze for both local and out of town guests.
services & Accomodations
You can find more details about our pricing and what your venue rental includes in our Wedding Pricing Brochure but here is an overview of some of the features that make Blue Bell Farm so special and perfect for your wedding celebration.
Catering
For seven generations, family, friends and employees have eaten together around the table at Blue Bell Farm.
We've moved out of the farmhouse and into our barn kitchen, but the sentiments remain the same - memorable food, to be shared and enjoyed in the heart of the farm.
We use every ingredient that is produced on the farm and we also source from other like-minded producers. Our menus are inspired by the the very best the season has to offer.
