If you had asked anyone in our family five years ago if we would own a wedding venue, you might get a laugh out of any one of us! Between a third-generation family construction company, a fully operational cattle ranch, and our passion for running a statewide non-profit organization, you might think we would be a little too busy to open a wedding venue. One thing about our family is that we love to serve other people and that we love to build. Whether it is building relationships, building actual buildings, or building champagne walls, we all have a universal passion for progress and excellence. Through the support and efforts of our entire family, we have finally opened the doors to something we once thought of as a far-fetched dream that has now become reality. Our passion of building has stayed the same and we are dedicated to serving our clients well and cultivating an excellent and tailored experience for each and every event that we host!

The goal of the Grand at Willow Springs is to provide a timeless, luxurious, and adaptable wedding and event venue for northwest Arkansas and beyond. The French country inspired estate with elegant modern twists serves as a blank canvas for our clients and will offer multiple indoor and outdoor spaces to allow the client to cultivate their dream event. This space is designed to celebrate community, love, and every good thing God grants us on earth!
