Irishman Acres

Irishman Acres Clover Barn is a purpose-built wedding and event venue in Bondurant, Iowa, set on eight acres just outside Des Moines. The venue combines a spacious post-and-beam barn with picturesque outdoor areas, making it suitable for weddings, receptions, rehearsal dinners, private celebrations and selected non-wedding events.

The barn can host approximately 250 to 270 guests for a seated dinner. Couples and organisers can choose between an indoor ceremony setting and an outdoor ceremony area featuring antique doors, a gazebo and landscaped surroundings. The property also offers covered patios, porches, pavilions, gardens, wooded areas and plenty of attractive locations for photographs. Evening lighting helps extend celebrations outdoors and adds a warm atmosphere around the grounds.

Inside, organisers have access to a bridal room, a groom’s lounge with a fireplace, a large loft area, kitchen facilities and guest restrooms. Wedding packages include tables, chairs and table linens, together with set-up and tear-down. The venue also provides a designated bar area through its exclusive bar service, while organisers may work with their own licensed and insured caterer.

Irishman Acres offers design support and a wide selection of décor items for tables and other event details. An on-site manager or staff member is present during the event, and clean-up is handled by the venue team afterwards. Wedding line-up coordination and day-of support are included, helping the occasion run according to plan. With its rural setting, flexible ceremony options, dedicated preparation spaces and practical event support, Clover Barn provides a complete setting for memorable celebrations near Des Moines.
