This venue is so beautiful! We looked at a lot of local places, but as soon as we saw the Ravington we knew it was for us. It’s got so much charm and beauty that you can go minimal on the decorations. The doors are stunning and speak for themselves! Even though it’s an old building and we got married in the heat of summer (8/5/23) we were completely comfortable with the temperature inside. Amber is a great person to work with and so friendly. I recommend the Ravington for any event!
This venue is perfect. There is no other way to describe it. The building has so much history and charm. It makes for the most romantic backdrop we could've asked for. Words really can't describe it.
We had a wonderful experience working with The Ravington! Their entire staff was so friendly and helpful as we planned our wedding in the midst of a challenging pandemic. They were incredibly courteous and very welcoming. They also helped us access vendors that they had worked with in the past and are very well known in the Northwest Arkansas area for being a wonderful venue. We have to agree!
he best venue in NWA! Amber and the management staff at the Ravington are incredible to work with. Very responsive, eager to help, and all around great people. And the venue is absolutely beautiful... from the altar, the bridal suite, the grooms suite, the courtyard... it's all second to none!
So glad we chose the Ravington for our wedding... it wouldn't of been the same anywhere else!
The Ravington is a gorgeous venue with so much history and design. It doesn't take much to have a pretty wedding here, so no need to worry about lots of decor.
Amber owns the venue is truly amazing. She helped us out so much during our COVID postponement and she made our day so special. Highly recommend this venue.
There is not enough words to say about how much I would recommend this venue for any event, especially weddings! I fell in love with it when I first got engaged in 2017. We finally had our wedding there this last October (2019). Throughout the entire process, Amber + her staff were more than attentive + wonderful at answering all my questions. The venue is beautifully up kept & all my guests thought it was a beautiful & spacious space. Above all, Amber made the planning experience amazing + went above and beyond every step.
This venue is NOT SAFE for LGBTQ+ community members. They are hosting a CONVERSION THERAPY event on 10-24. These events are DEADLY and ILLEGAL in many states. This is disgusting and so disappointing. I will NEVER step foot in this facility again for any reason.
AMAZING! We love Amber and her wonderful staff so much. Very grateful for a wonderful experience. We planned from a distance which is not easy and felt that this was one of the best decisions we made. Thank you for making our day perfect Amber!
The Ravington was the last of five venues that we toured, and it was the only one that checked all of our boxes. This place is absolutely perfect! The rustic accents were perfect for my style, and the industrial accents were perfect for my husband's style. Having both a bride and groom's suite on-site was a huge deal for me. The Ravington has both! They have separate entrances and they are both gorgeously decorated to boot. The venue itself is breathtaking. I got so many compliments from my guests about how beautiful it is. The chandeliers, beautiful pews, and antique doors are just the right amount of decoration; I definitely did not have to break the bank to make the room look pretty--it speaks for itself. Amber, the owner, is readily available for communication and to answer questions. She was great to work with and allowed us the flexibility to create the wedding of our dreams!
The only detractor from this venue is that the ice maker is currently broken, and it was not in the budget for the Ravington to make this repair this year, so I was responsible for providing my own ice. However, I am absolutely sure that they are doing everything in their power to resolve this issue as soon as possible, and it did not sour our day in the slightest.
BEST venue in Northwest Arkansas! We were forced to change venues last minute and it was such a blessing in disguise! Amber was amazing to work with and very accommodating. The venue was perfect for our wedding day! We had a blast getting ready in the groom and bridal suites before walking down the aisle. The open space (inside and outside) really allows you to mingle and have fun with all of your guests. Highly recommend!
I LOVE THIS VENUE!!!! All of my guests (many of whom traveled long distances) were BLOWN AWAY.
PERFECT location for our reception! The bridal suite is the prettiest in Arkansas, hands down! Loved the shower in the groom’s room. They’ve thought of everything!
The Ravington was just stunning and had everything we needed to make our day effortless and fun!
The Ravington is a beautiful venue that is well thought out to incorporate all you will desire to make your event a stunning and elegant success. We had my daughter and son-in-law's wedding reception there. From the spacious gorgeous bridal suite to both the inside and outside exquisite details, this venue is sure to please and meet all your needs. The venue is beautiful on it's own, but with the decorations our florist provided, it became a stunning reception that is one for the books. It is very spacious and accomodated our 300 plus guests easily.
The Ravington is the best wedding venue in Northwest Arkansas! It is so inherently beautiful that you won't need to spend all your money on decorations. The option for indoor/outdoor wedding is hard to beat (I changed to outdoor 45 minutes before the ceremony because the weather turned perfect). The bridal suite is stunning and spacious. We fit 11 bridesmaids and 3 stylists in with plenty of room. Amber is so great and has such a positive energy that really fits perfectly with wedding planning. She is very easy to work with and responds promptly to emails. She provides a list of vendors that all turned out to be perfect for my wedding. We rented a shuttle from the Ravington to the hotel we used in Bentonville and it was a very short trip. Would recommend the Ravington to anyone getting married in the area.
Such a beautiful venue with gorgeous architectural touches! From the tin punched ceiling with chandeliers, exposed brick and shiplap walls and the DOORS, the beauty and vib of the Ravington is unparalleled in NWA. We truly enjoyed getting ready in the bridal suite, such a bright and cheerful room, which was the perfect backdrop for some amazing photographs. The groom's lounge is very swanky, but also has a great view of the party from above! We had a sit down dinner for just over 200 and had plenty of room for a large dance floor. Amber and the on-site manager were both wonderful to work with throughout the planning process. Eric and Amber have taken a piece of history and created an amazing location to have a wedding.
The Ravington was the most beautiful and perfect venue for our wedding day. We had our ceremony and reception here, and it was so nice to have all of the celebration in one space. The groom and bridal suites are so unique and fit our personalities perfectly. I truly cannot imagine a more perfect space for our day. The staff is wonderful to work with, and I am so grateful for all the work they did to make May 27 the perfect day that it was.
0% refund on popular June wedding date despite 363 day notice. Paid deposit as well as $3,000 towards payment(not yet required) and still received not a penny back. Meanwhile, another bride received full refund excluding deposit just a few months prior with exact same contract. This shows inconsistency and undoubtable favoritism towards clients. Inconsiderate of bride’s situation. Do not use this venue if you’re looking for personable staffing who want to make your dream wedding come true.
This venue is absolutely stunning! The owners and site manager were all professional and timely when it came to communicating with me about wedding details and questions. They are always working to make the venue even better. I could not have been happier with how my wedding day turned out and my guest could not stop talking about how beautiful the venue was! I highly recommend choosing the Ravington for your wedding!
Gorgeous venue! Owners very nice and accommodating. Set up of chairs and tables are done for you the way you want. Little decor needed. Chairs a little stained, but not too noticeable for night receptions. Good lighting. No sound system available (yet). Great place, recommended!
