Debbies Celebration Barn - Oskaloosa, Iowa

Doug M.

My crew and myself have been shooting professional wedding photography and video production for over 25 years in Central Iowa. Debbie's Celebration Barn is one of the most fabulous venues we've worked at. Debbie and her crew are the best and ALWAYS make sure everything is as perfect as possible. There is a LOT of outdoor spaces for incredible photography & video. We have worked there many times and every time was a fantastic experience...I Highly Recommend Debbie's Celebration Barn for any event!!

Debbie’s Celebration Barn is nothing but a 5 star location for any event! From communication from the day of deposit/reservation up to the big day everything has been nothing short of amazing! My cousin and her husband got married here this past Saturday 8/24/24. Debbie and Denny and the bar staff even were so generous and helpful the day before when we were setting up and on the big day were even more so. They brought out their cockatoo and parrot for guests to interact and take pictures with, we got the bartender to line dance with us and even had Denny out on the floor with us for a short time. I will highly recommend this venue to anyone looking for a dream wedding location!

We had an opportunity this summer to do photo & video at the venue for Aundrea & Austin's wedding day. The owner's were available and attentive any time we had questions or needed anything! Don't underestimate the importance of this aspect when choosing a venue. Be sure to check out all the creative locations for photos right onsite. So many options! As well, we highly recommend a private last dance with just the two of you. The stunning string lights are a photographer/videographers dream! We highly recommend Debbie's Celebration Barn!

My son and daughter-in-law were married here over the weekend, and the experience was nothing but wonderful. Denny and Debbie went above and beyond to make sure we had everything we needed, were incredibly kind and assisted when necessary, and the grounds were beautiful. Thank you to both for making this day extra special for the bride and groom.

Got married here over the weekend, and let me tell you this place is amazing! Denny and Debbie are amazing! I booked the venue back in December of 2021 and since then I have been in contact with Denny about things and he has been great! Always massaging back even if it takes a few days or hours (busy man)! Was able to go in to the venue a few time to look at it and decide on things and each time Denny was amazing and so helpful! When it came to this weekend Denny was the man!! He was there helping put table cloths on tables finding tables and helping make sure the venue was the way we wanted it! Then the day of the wedding he was parking cars and being shots and man it was hot day and at one point he came out with water for me and my groom and said drink then took them so we could hug people and then came back said drink! Denny took such good care of us! The bartender was amazing at making drinks and coming up with shots! In short I would 100% book with them again because I feel like family! Thank you Denny and Debbie for making our weeding the best day ever! You guys rock!

This is the best wedding place we ever attended. The owner Debbie is very friendly, sweet and kind. She put a lot of effort to make this place into a magic celebration kingdom. Inside the barn lighting and decorations all details are just perfect. Outside the barn, there are tons of very beautiful props for taking pictures and even peacocks!!!! The bartender is really professional and super efficient! We just love everything about this place ! Highly recommend!

We had an excellent experience using Debbie's Celebration Barn as the venue for our son's rehearsal, rehearsal dinner, wedding and reception. So convenient to have everything in the same place. The barn (hard to call it a barn) is gorgeous inside and out with many outdoor photo opportunities available. The kids had a blast in the outdoor play area and bag games for the adults were set up outside as well. The inside stayed cool even though it was a late July wedding. The owners (Denny and Debbie) were extremely accommodating. They recommended caterers, offered rooms full of decorations for us to use and provided ideas for drinks and quantities to order. Debbie and Denny were at our service the entire evening, directing cars to park, dismissing tables to the buffet and saying grace, manning the photo booth, and even stepping in to help bartend when needed. The bartender Jill was phenomenally fast and efficient, even making specialty coffee and energy drinks when ordered. An amazing evening was had by all, especially the bride and groom!!

Denny and Debbie are amazing. Denny got to know my daughter and son-in-law and he tailored special little things to enhance their experience. Coming from West Des Moines, you will not find another venue that will come close to the Celebration Barn.

I cannot say enough good things about Denny, Debbie and the Celebration Barn. This is a must for any wedding and reception.
