The Canton Barn was the perfect venue for our wedding! From start to finish, the communication with Tyler and Courtney was great - they responded quickly to emails and phone calls, and provided detailed answers to all of our questions. The venue itself is gorgeous, with beautiful rustic charm inside the barn and sprawling green fields outside that made for a stunning backdrop. All of our guests raved about what a wonderful venue it was, with cozy seating areas inside to mingle and a huge outdoor space where we had our dance with spots for lawn games and a bonfire. The value can't be beat - for the reasonable price and the flexibility to bring in our own vendors. I can't recommend The Canton Barn enough if you're looking to have a South Dakota weeding venue that really wows!
