When you’re planning a private party, you want a space that feels relaxed but still easy to manage. At Fort Worth Country Memories in Fort Worth, Texas, we host celebrations like baby showers, school banquets, milestone birthdays, retirements, and corporate parties. Our event packages are built to give you flexible space, simple inclusions, and fun touches that keep guests engaged.

Fort Worth Country Memories in Fort Worth accommodates private parties of up to 150 guests across an indoor ballroom, outdoor reception area, and Cedar Pavilion with a covered dance floor. Packages include decor from an on-site library, event cleanup, outdoor games, and optional add-ons like a photobooth and a Corral experience featuring miniature horses and a zebra. An open vendor policy covers food, and alcohol must be served by a TABC-certified bartender.

We are not a traditional barn venue. Our barn is used as a support space for cake, drinks, restrooms, and dressing areas, while your celebration happens in our outdoor and indoor event areas. Keeping those support areas separate helps the main event feel more organized from start to finish.

What’s included when you book an event package

When you host a private party at Fort Worth Country Memories, you can use indoor and outdoor spaces, plus tables and chairs, decor from The Marketplace, the Cedar Pavilion as a covered dance floor, and event cleanup.

Indoor Ballroom and Outdoor Reception Area for parties

Our venue is designed for events up to 150 guests, with space to seat everyone and still keep the flow open for mingling.

The Indoor Ballroom seats up to 150 and features chandeliers, heating and AC, a Bluetooth speaker, a couples table, tablecloths, and a full kitchen. That means you have heating and AC for comfort and a Bluetooth speaker available without complicating your setup.

If you prefer an outdoor setting, our Outdoor Reception Area includes seating for up to 150, a beverage serving bar, a cake table, a refrigerator, a cooler, an ice machine, and four restrooms available on the property. Folding tables are available, so you can configure the layout around your guest list.

A covered pavilion made for dancing and music

For parties where music and dancing are part of the plan, the Cedar Pavilion offers a covered dance floor and a covered DJ or music area. There is also covered seating with wooden tables and chairs, accented with a chandelier with ceiling fans overhead.  The open-air deck has wooden picnic tables, wooden tables with benches set under over 500ft of string lights.

It works well for birthday parties, milestone celebrations, and school events where you want a dedicated space for dancing while guests can step aside to talk.

Activities that keep guests of all ages entertained

We have outdoor games like horseshoes, mini bowling, a tree swing, porch swings, and Tiny Town for toddlers. Parents can relax knowing younger guests have something designed just for them.

For hosts who want to add a unique moment, The Corral experience brings our miniature horses and zebra, Zoey, near your reception. Guests can feed, pet, and take photos for about an hour. It is a simple way to create a shared experience during your event.

Decor, tables, and cleanup already handled

All event packages include picnic tables, wooden tables, benches, folding tables, and chairs. You also receive free use of decor from The Marketplace, including signs, mason jars, vases, lanterns, greenery, flowers, wood rounds, arbor drapes, and more. Additional rental items are available on site.

Event cleanup and trash removal are included, so you’re not left handling the final sweep at the end of the night.
