Put on your formal attire, grab your honey and friends, and join us for a night full of dancing and fun!

Ticket price includes entry into DJ'ed event, complimentary first beer or glass of wine, use of photo booth, and appetizers & desserts.  There is also a choice of an upgraded ticket that includes shuttle to and from the event as well as a hotel room at Holiday Inn & Suites in Council Bluffs.  Shuttle will leave promptly from hotel at 5:30, so be sure to be on time!  We will do our best to accommodate room requests (king bed or two queens), but availability is on a first come basis.  Valid credit card and ID will be required to check into hotel room.

We strongly encourage you to dress the same decade as when your high school prom was or your funniest 4.20 apparel, but as long as you've got clothes on, you're good!
Willow Creek invites visitors to come and experience a rustic, country retreat just a short drive from the Omaha/Council Bluffs metro. Surrounded by trees, native grasses, and flowers, Willow Creek will take your breath away from the moment you step onto the property. Some of Iowa's prettiest rolling hills provide the background for helping create memories that will last forever.

    The Chapel

    You will be in awe of the 40 foot high ceilings and beautiful 360 degree view through glass in the chapel, allowing you to take advantage of whatever scenery nature decides to provide at the time. 

    There's a separate building designated for the bridal party which has a full-length mirror and private bathroom, located a short walk from the chapel.

    The chapel is available for wedding ceremonies, memorials, or naming services. We are a non-denominational chapel that can accommodate any ceremony, religious or not.   

    The chapel is available on it's own Sunday through Thursday and on Friday and Saturdays with the rental of the Barn.

    The chapel seats up to 168 guests in the pews. Additional seating may be brought into fit up to 220 guests.

    If you are looking for a unique place to take your vows, give us a call and set up an appointment.  You'll quickly see why we can make your wedding dreams come true.

    The Barn

    Our banquet hall "Barn" is available for wedding receptions, private parties, corporate events, business functions, conferences, church retreats, family reunions, or any time a unique setting is desired for your event.

    The barn can accommodate up to 300 guests and features high, vaulted ceilings and follows the same natural, rustic theme that so many have already fallen in  love with at the chapel.  The rustic charm will captivate you at first look, inviting you to transform the interior to your desires.

    The barn has a full bar, public restrooms, and plenty of room for a dance floor.  We are passionate about salvaging materials that would otherwise be trash in a dump and turn these items into beautiful parts of our building.

    If you are looking for a memorable location, then look no further than the barn at Willow Creek.

    The Destination

    Aside from the slight possibility of something maiming you out in the wilds of the country or getting your car a little dusty on a couple miles of gravel roads getting to Willow Creek, Shane & Maritza hope that everyone that spends their day with them has a remarkable time and they hope to see all of you that visit come back again and again for many years to come.
