The Stables at Connoquenessing was originally built in 1928 as part of the Spang Estate. What was once a working barn home to Belgian draft horses and Guernsey cows, has now been renovated into a rustic, yet elegant two-story event facility. During the 1950s, peacocks, chickens, ducks, and geese could be found roaming the portion of the property that is now occupied by a covered patio, well-kept landscaping, and ample green space that creates a beautiful natural setting for all of your future events. The two-story barn was renovated and reopened as a rustic, yet elegant event facility in 2017. Complete with modern-day amenities, such as a fully-equipped catering kitchen, cozy bar and cocktail space, intimate downstairs dining area, covered patio, spacious second-floor banquet hall, this unique venue is the perfect setting for any gathering.

In 2014 we approached the owner of a farm and asked if he would allow us to use his barn for the greatest day of our lives. Once he said we could, Nikki hit the ground running, and from that point on we worked tirelessly to make her vision a reality. In 2015 our hard work had paid off. Our day arrived, our vows were spoken, the bride got kissed, and our adventure began. Ever since we've wanted to help other couples have the same great experience we had and after six years of searching, we happened upon 115 acres of perfection, and once again Nikki's vision is becoming reality.

The Barn at Rayne Run is a new wedding, reception, and party venue that is a must-see! Chuck and Linda of Marion Center have completely restored an old barn all the way down to the frame. There is now electricity, plumbing, bathrooms, a bridal suite, a kitchenette, and a roofed deck with a beautiful view.

With a love for the Wedding Industry, local residents and business owners, Cathy & Ben Burnheimer, took over the property January 1, 2021. Maintaining the integrity of the 150 year old barn, the couple transformed the space to the beautiful venue it is today. Avenue in Sarver is the premiere place to host all of your special events.
