Say I Do At 4 New Wedding Venues

Storybook Barn
​9658 E. State Highway D, Rogersville, storybookbarnmo.com
When it Opened: September 2017
Why We Love It: If the walls could talk at the Storybook Barn, oh, the stories they’d tell. The barn was built by the Pickle family around the time of the Civil War 15 miles east of Springfield outside of Rogersville. Today, it stands as an idyllic countryside venue. Owned by writer William Jefferson and his wife, Lois, the barn features delicate romantic and rustic details. As evidenced in a lantern in a silo and a chandelier in the heart of the barn, the venue features wood, stone and stained glass accents throughout its historic grounds. A modern pavilion sets the stage for love stories’ ceremonies, where couples begin their happily ever after.

Why We Love It: The Springfield Art Museum is Springfield’s oldest cultural institution. But its amphitheater is having an Instagrammable moment. Located behind the museum, the outdoor amphitheater features a dramatic stone stage with towering pines and oak trees in Phelps Grove Park serving as its background. Four columns flank the platform, and local stone steps and walls bring a rich texture. A 1-acre green space spreads out in front of the stage, where guests can watch your love story unfold. And with outdoor art installations surrounding the space, couples and their guests have plenty of places to take photos for the 'gram.
