One day last July I saw online that The Barn had a cancellation and a wedding date in September. I reached out to inquire and Laura was SO kind, helpful and prompt with communication. We loved the venue and booked, sent out invitations and planned our wedding super quickly (after 10 years together.) Every step of the way went smoothly with planning and communication and we absolutely LOVED having our wedding there. We had room for a live band, there was plenty of parking, lots of great places for photo ops on the property, a lovely bridal room to get ready in, a silo gazebo, we could choose our own caterer, there plenty of seating (we loved the church pews and the wooden chairs,) and there were just so many other nice touches. We bought small glass jars which they filled with their honey (for a reasonable fee) and we gave our guests Honey Blossom Orchard honey as the wedding reception favor. (Btw-their honey IS absolutely delicious!) We can’t say enough good about The Barn as a wedding/reception venue and if you are looking for somewhere relaxed, rustic and beautiful to have your wedding, this is your place:)

We had our ceremony and reception at the Barn in September 2020. In the midst of what was a very trying time with everything going on in the world, we were happy to have such a reliable venue and a good line of communication with Minette. Whenever we needed anything, she was there! Also, the venue itself is lovely, we got so many compliments from guests. The on site bridal suite is the perfect place to get ready and is so convenient to have. Overall; this is a gorgeous venue and a true hidden gem future couples should definitely consider!

I was excited to be their first bride and break in the new and upcoming wedding venue. They faced a heck of a challenge in getting the materials they needed for projects around the building due to COVID and worked long days to get it done in time. Ashley and Amanda were so kind and helpful through the entire process. Everything went smooth and I had the perfect day.
