Main Ballroom

Gorgeous, yet blank, canvas to accompany any design plans one may have in store. The architecture and chandelier speak for themselves.

Upon entering the main hall your eyes will be drawn to three distinct characteristics; the floor to ceiling Cyprus paneling, the exquisite embossed flooring, and our 900+ crystal chandelier. The quality of these details automatically take your event to a superior level. There is nothing of this caliber in the area. We pride ourselves in providing the best of the best for our community.

    I have had the honor to dee-jay at the Rustic Barn. Mrs. Rosemarie is the greatest Hostess and runs a VERY PROFESSIONAL SHIP. This is Kysheem Remix :)

    As a Wedding Planner, it is so important to be able to work side by side with your venue to ensure the day runs smoothly and beautifully. The team at The Rustic Barn do that with such ease, passion, kindness and knowledge. I get so excited when my couple's tell me they are getting married there. I know that if I need something , it will be there. I am huge on communication and if I have a question, the answer follows very quickly. Bottom line, I love them and love working with them. Thank you Katelyn, Sasha and team for being so incredibly wonderful.
