A wedding weekend made for the moments inbetween
A room full of your favorite people. Dinner shared around the table. Dancing that carries into the evening. A quiet moment outside beneath the stars. One more conversation around the fire before the night ends.
At The Acres, we believe your wedding deserves more than a few hours to bring it all together. We specialize in full-weekend experience giving you time to settle in, celebrate with the people you love, and enjoy the moments that might otherwise feel rushed. With thoughtful details and a team that takes care of the work behind the scenes, you can be present for the experience—not managing it.
Set on 13 acres in Council Bluffs, our intimate countryside venue is designed for meaningful celebrations, beautiful surroundings, and quality time with the people who matter most.
Because the best weddings aren't just about the day. They're about everything you get to experience along the way.
Why Choose The Acres for Your Wedding Weekend Celebration?
An Intimate Weekend, Surrounded by Your Favorite People
With space for up to 150 guests, The Acres is a place to bring your favorite people together for a celebration that feels personal, meaningful, and entirely your own. A smaller guest list leaves more room for the moments that matter most—unhurried conversations, extra time with family, laughter around the dinner table, and one more story shared around the fire. It's about being present with the people who have shaped your story, celebrating without feeling rushed, and creating the kind of memories that stay with you long after the weekend ends.
Elevated Weekend
Your wedding deserves more than a beautiful space. It deserves an experience where every detail comes together, and you can simply enjoy it. Our in-house decorator elevates the space, our Day-Of Coordinator keeps your schedule running smoothly, our photographer captures the moments you'll want to relive, and our DJ brings the dance floor to life. With thoughtfully designed packages and add-ons, we offer options to take care of the details so you can spend less time managing your wedding and more time making memories. And with three days to celebrate, you have the opportunity to soak it all in—from a relaxed rehearsal dinner to your wedding day and one more morning together with the people who matter most. Because the best parts of a wedding aren't always found in a single day; sometimes, they're the moments in between.
A World Away
Tucked into the countryside of East Council Bluffs, The Acres feels like a world away from everyday life, yet sits just 15 minutes from downtown Omaha. With 13 peaceful acres to explore, open skies overhead, and room to gather around the bonfire beneath the stars, there's space to slow down, settle in, and enjoy being together. Add in the charm of our resident animals, and you'll find a setting that's a little different from the ordinary. It's a place where the usual responsibilities can take a backseat, conversations last a little longer, and your celebration feels like a true getaway—all without traveling far from home.
