We had our wedding at Fat Apple Farm and were so pleased with everything! The family that runs it was incredibly responsive and caring during the planning process, making things much lower stress and giving us peace of mind that the event would go smoothly. On the big day, they had many friendly workers on hand to help set up, coordinate vendors, and make sure we didn't have to worry about a thing. The beautiful farm setting provided a perfect rustic backdrop for our pictures and the event space was large enough to accommodate all our guests comfortably. We felt the venue was an excellent value for the quality of service and lovely atmosphere they provided.

First off, the venue is beautiful - both the second floor and rooftop! The owners are wonderful and very helpful. Due to COVID-19, our plans changed a few times and they were very accommodating. We ended up having all events outside on a cold, rainy day but it was still perfect. They put up the canopy and had heaters our for us. I would highly recommend The Loft at 132!

Pheasant Valley Barn 

5.0

Brooklyn, WI
  • Up to 300 guests
  • Raw space
  • Indoor & outdoor

We welcome you to Pheasant Valley Barn! The barn is nestled in a scenic valley in the middle of our farm. The Byrne family started dairy farming in Wisconsin after emigrating from Ireland in the 1870's. In 2003, we decided to renovate our 1890's barn. We added a new metal roof and restored the interior of the barn. To celebrate, we had a barn dance for Duane's parents' 40th anniversary. Thus began "The Party Barn". In the fall of 2018, our son Cory married his fiance, Jenny. It confirmed our idea of starting a barn venue and sharing our barn and farm with others. We have been asked many times, "Why don't you rent out this barn?" We have decided the time is right to diversify our farm and start this event business. We are so happy that we restored our barn. As more and more barns and farms are lost, our barn is preserved and now can be shared with others to create a memorable and special day for your event!

My husband and I were married at Pheasant Valley Barn this past summer and we could not have been happier with our venue choice. Lindsay, the owner, was extremely helpful and responsive throughout the entire planning process, offering timely advice and insights that ensured our rustic, flower-filled wedding vision came to life seamlessly. The beautiful, open barn provided a warm, welcoming backdrop for our special day. Lindsay worked hard to infuse personal touches that made our wedding feel unique. From the first venue walkthrough to the final farewell, Lindsay was there to answer every question, calm every worry, and handle all the behind-the-scenes details with total professionalism. We were able to relax and soak in every magical moment knowing we were in very capable hands. I would enthusiastically recommend Pheasant Valley Barn to any engaged couple searching for a venue that delivers beauty, charm, and outstanding service.
