Small Town Prices - Big City Experience
Your wedding shouldn't break the bank and at the Barn III we strive to make your planning experience as easy as possible! When you book with us, you get the Barn and the Bling too! The Barn III's rental cost includes ALL the linens, napkins, overlays, table runners, basic silk florals & several other perks that would cost you extra anywhere else (kiss cam, ceiling drape, wood slabs, signage, designated wedding team and more). With all of the bling included, we are one of the most affordable venues in Central Illinois! Let us do the heavy lifting, you do the kissing!
"We've always been different...why change now?"
Dubbed “The Ritz Carlton of Barns,” The Barn III blends 50+ years of hospitality experience with modern charm. What started as a dinner theatre in 1975 has grown into a top-tier event space—now in a brand-new barn, built with heart. From your first tour to the last dance, you’ll feel the difference. And when The Barn III staff are loading your gifts and cake into your car at the end of the night, you’ll be glad you chose something different.

*If you are having your ceremony with us, you automatically book the evening before your big day for your rehearsal. We highly recommend you allow us to cater your rehearsal dinner on site. Instead of having your party drive to multiple locations and worry about meeting your reservation time (you never know how long the actual ceremony rehearsal might last depending on your details!), you can sit back and relax once you’ve rehearsed and enjoy a drink from the bar and some delicious Barn III cuisine! Please note: if you do choose to have us cater your rehearsal dinner, you will pick from our food/booze menu and that will be added to your final invoice.
The following items will be assessed to your final invoice as needed. At The Barn III, we pride ourselves on being as transparent as possible with our pricing. With other venues, you might experience minimum requirements, additional charges for set-up, tear-down, tent rental, chair rental, table rental, etc. Almost all of these items are included when you choose us! Once again, check out our Barn Bling!
