    Walton Arts Center

    Fayetteville

    The newly renovated Walton Arts Center is a stunning modern space for brides looking for something different than barns or ballrooms. The architecture of the building is stunning and features beautiful additions such as floor-to-ceiling windows, a signature chandelier, a grand staircase, an art gallery, a rose garden amphitheater and a black box theater — just imagine the photo ops!

      Crystal Bridges Museum of American Art

      Bentonville

      Of course, no arts venue roundup would be complete without the crown jewel of Arkansas museums, Crystal Bridges. This incredible venue's architecture alone makes for stunning wedding photos. Indoor spaces include the elegant Great Hall, with soaring wood-beamed ceilings and views of water on three sides. Crystal Bridges also offers beautiful outdoor lawns, gardens and forest that sprawl across the museum’s 120-acre site.
