About this venue
The Brownstone has a rich architectural history, being originally designed by Kansas State Architecture students in 1927 as a dairy barn. The venue, which sits on five acres of land, has lived through the Topeka flood of 1951 and reinvented itself multiple times through family homes, small businesses and a bed and breakfast. The barn was purchased in early 2016 by the Brown family of Topeka, to create a place for the community to enjoy.
Our event spaces
Brick Patio
Toast beneath twinkling lights on the intimate brick patio—perfect for cocktail hour or vow exchange
Tucked beside the barn, the Brick Patio is a cozy, semi-enclosed courtyard with string lights overhead and vintage brick underfoot. It’s a favorite for cocktail hours, smaller ceremonies, and al fresco dining. This area radiates charm—especially in the evening, when it glows under café lighting and feels like a hidden garden party. It's great for guests who want a quieter place to gather, and it's conveniently located near the bar and event hall for seamless flow between wedding day events.

The Limestone Patio offers a rustic-yet-elegant outdoor ceremony setting. Featuring a beautiful limestone wall with a built-in fireplace and staircase, this space blends natural textures with architectural charm—perfect for a romantic exchange of vows. It’s spacious enough to accommodate guests comfortably while maintaining an intimate, serene atmosphere. The fireplace provides a cozy focal point, ideal for evening ceremonies or cooler seasons. In case of unpredictable weather, this space can also serve as a flexible backup or transition area between indoor and outdoor moments.
