About this venue

The Barn at Bull Run is a newly renovated wedding and event space. Originally built in 1933 as a dairy barn, The Barn at Bull Run was owned by Schwab Dairy until it was purchased by the Presbytery of Peoria as well as the surrounding land in the fall of 1967. The Morton Park District now owns the property and has completely restored and renovated the space into a beautiful wedding venue, complete with a ceremony space, reception space, bridal suite, and grooms suite. The venue can hold a max capacity of 250 people.

    The Barn at Bull Run was the perfect venue for our wedding day. From the beginning, their communication was timely, they were always available to answer our questions, and the staff was incredibly kind throughout the entire process. The newly renovated barn was absolutely beautiful, we loved getting to put up our own decor in the space. I love that the ceremony and reception were all in the same place, which made it really convenient for everyone. The venue provides so much for you, including a getting ready room for bride and groom as well as, a kitchen for caterers, and even an elevator and sound system for your DJ. Everything you could need!! The venue had a spacious layout that provided ample room for our 150 or so guests, and everyone had a blast! The team at The Barn at Bull Run went above and beyond to ensure our special day went smoothly, and they were readily available to help with any questions or requests we had. We are so grateful to have celebrated our wedding in such a stunning, well-maintained space!!
