Established in 2016, here at Kindred Barn, we feel pretty strongly about a handful of things. We believe in God, family, friends, love & gatherings. Mix all of those passions together and Kindred Barn was birthed.
Our all white barn is an amazing wedding + event venue in River Valley and just south of Northwest Arkansas. We like to say we are in the center of the USA... the perfect location from any area. We have a completely air conditioned and heated 7500sq ft. venue space that is ready to see your most celebrated occasions. From weddings to corporate Christmas parties, we are thrilled to see this space filled with you and those you hold dear.

Kindred Barn at Essie Lane Farm Reviews
Maddy Goolsby(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 30-12-2019 Absolutely loved the venue, but the hosts were even better! They were always there to help, even though they weren’t required to help us prepare. The upstairs suite was my favorite part and a great place to relax and enjoy the moments leading up to my special day! Reviewed on 10-03-2020
Katie Headley(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 16-03-2019 Kindred Barn is the perfect place to get married. The indoor and outdoor ceremony and reception areas are absolutely beautiful and so versatile for every kind of style. The owners of the barn, Joey and Stacy, are absolutely amazing as well! We had such a great experience at Kindred, I would highly recommend this venue to anyone getting married. Reviewed on 21-01-2020
Dallas Pitchford(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 03-08-2019 Best venue ever. We needed a venue and fast. We talked for months with another place and it never worked out because it was to small. We started searching again and everywhere was booked but the kindred barn and it just so happens they were almost completely booked except for our date. It was fate. We instantly fell In love with the outdoor oasis. It rained our entire wedding day but stopped long enough for us to get married outside in the beautiful outdoor area! Honestly I prayed for rain (Its good luck). We saw several deer and animals that morning. Our ceremony was wonderful and lush with beautiful greenery indoors. We served over 350 plates.... crazy I know. I would choose them over and over and over. The owners are the most wonderful, loving people I have ever met. So happy we choose this gem. Also I never wanted a barn wedding but this place does not feel like a barn at alllll on the inside and when you get it all decorated and ready. It felt like a fairytale wedding. The all white is just my style. Reviewed on 21-01-2020
Corey Teague(groom)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 26-10-2019 I can’t describe how amazing this venue was! It was more than we could have ever asked for and everyone goes on and on about our amazing wedding! The owners are helpful and honestly have you seen the pictures of weddings there, they are all amazing. I’m so glad we got spend our special day there and I will always give it 5 stars. Please check it out and fall in love with it for yourself! Reviewed on 09-01-2020
Taylor Rollans(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 14-09-2019 We had our wedding at Kindred Barn in September and it was honestly the best venue I could have ever imagined. I was not wanting a barn for our venue AT ALL and then I went to Kindred Barn and everything changed. It was beautiful even without all the decorations! I was worried about weather conditions and the heat in September since you never know what it will be like then and I was able to have the ceremony and reception both inside so I didn’t have to worry about any of that. The owners were so helpful throughout the whole process. We wanted to go see the barn on several occasions just to make sure our plans were going accordingly and Stacy never failed to make us feel welcome and help in any way possible. We were lucky enough to rent the barn the night before for our rehearsal dinner and my bridesmaids and I were able to stay there all night and the next day to get ready. That night was Friday the 13th so we had some fun watching scary movies and it is just another amazing memory I will have in the barn. 10/10 recommend to all couples! Reviewed on 08-01-2020
Betsy Ruales(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 03-11-2019 What can I say, this venue was priceless and a sweet gift as the venue for our wedding day. My husband Stephen and I were planning a wedding in America from two separate continents. But the Kindred team was so gracious to work with us. Additionally, the space offers such a wonderful package that includes clean up and so many extras. From choices of arbor to bountiful supplies of decorations, from chairs and tables to a beautiful setting, the Kindred Barn really made this the dream wedding venue. There is such an atmosphere of peace in this place as well which is a blessing to both wedding party and guests. The presence of God can be felt so tangibly. Couldn’t have asked for a better, more beautiful location to begin forever with the love of my life. Reviewed on 08-01-2020
Shelby Butler(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 30-06-2017 We got married at Kindred in June of 2017. Sam, Nick & the rest of the Kindred crew made all our dreams come true. Kindred did our WHOLE wedding- venue, florals, photography, and coordinating. It was SO nice having everything in house- everything was seriously perfect & so stress free + have you seen Kindred Barn? So dreamy. Reviewed on 08-01-2020
Kara O(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 18-05-2019 We could not of had a more perfect venue for our big day! It ended up severely storming (including tornadoes) and Kindred’s versatility allowed us to smoothly move the ceremony indoors and still get outside pictures on the covered porch. The owners were wonderful to work with too! From the adorable bridal suite, chalkboards and other decor on site and beautiful barn that needs minimal decoration, having our wedding at kindred was the best decision! Reviewed on 08-01-2020
Shara Curry(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 27-07-2019 We loved Kindred Barn. Our wedding day felt like a dream here. It is already so beautiful that it doesn't need much to make it beautiful. We had both our ceremony and reception inside which means we had to flip the space. There were no issues as long as you have a good team ready to do it while you take pictures. The venue is a little out of the way, but it's well worth it. People went on and on about how beautiful it was. Reviewed on 10-08-2019
Megan Snodgrass(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 17-05-2019 Beautiful venue with a great layout and wonderful owners! Reviewed on 19-06-2019
Meredith Simpkins(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 20-04-2019 Kindred Barn was a wonderful venue for our wedding and reception. You can choose indoor or outdoor, both sites are beautiful. The owners, Stacy and Joey, were fantastic to work with. Not only is the venue beautiful, but it has so many amenities. Bridal suite, salon room, grooms suite, honeymoon suite (to die for) with a balcony, catering kitchen, decor closet, etc. Not to mention it is on a gorgeous farm. It's the perfect backdrop for your wedding day! Reviewed on 08-05-2019
