The Brick Barn was built in 1930 when the original barn burned down the year before. It has been the heart of the farm ever since, housing dairy cows, work horses and many litters of farm kittens over the years.
The barn rehab started out as a hobby and a necessary job to preserve the farm's dignity. The project became James's labor of love. He spent countless hours preserving his family's history and a piece of Iowa's traditional farm countryside on the edge of the ever-expanding city limits.
Our family contributes to the barn's success and the renovation design was the work of Eric Wessels, our son-in-law.
In the loft, chandeliers illuminate the space creating a soft romantic atmosphere that contrasts against the brick walls and exposed tin roof.

Sierra McCarthy(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 18-09-2021 Wow. Where do I even begin- The Keller Brick Barn is absolutely beautiful. There are gorgeous string lights, candles, and other decor all around the barn, that give off that rustic/farm style vibe. There are many decor items that she will gladly let you borrow. There are beautiful flowers surrounding the barn and a cute little out house for the groom's suite and a lovely bride's suite inside. During our wedding planning, we knew we wanted something more rustic/sweet. This was the second venue we toured and we immediately fell in love. We canceled the other tours we had lined up for the week because we just knew \"this was it.\" As soon as we met Pam and her husband, we could tell they would do anything they could to make our big day perfect. Pam was very responsive to all emails and questions we had. She also provided suggestions for catering and other vendors. She is so wiling to help in any way she can, all you have to do is ask! We chose the weekend package, which allowed the decorators and I to set up early, to make it less hectic the day of. We were also able to host a nice brunch with our friends and family the Sunday after the wedding. In addition, Pam went above and beyond by making sure all the LED candles/string lights were on prior to the reception. This barn will forever hold a special place in my heart. We cannot recommend The Keller Brick Barn enough!! Reviewed on 22-09-2021
Nathaniel Young(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 07-04-2017 We had our wedding at the Keller Brick Barn in April and we loved every second of it. Kady and Pam were very accommodating with all the ins and outs of the day. It is a beautiful venue and we felt like we didn't need add too much to make it ours. They were responsive to emails and always available for questions. Very professional group of people. I would highly recommend having your event here! Reviewed on 26-05-2017
