This venue is literally EVERYTHING! We fell in love when we toured and booked it our first visit, and on wedding morning just walking in and around the grounds I was in awe. Every guest said that it was the most beautiful and best wedding they had been too. The staff was so wonderful and helpful. Bonus tip: use the in house day of coordinator. It’s so much more than just the day of; more like month of. they know the ins and outs of the place so it truly makes your day go smooth. If there was something wrong that happened on my wedding day, o had no clue because Alisha was on top of everything.
Outstanding experience

Willowynn Barn was a fantastic choice for our wedding venue. They responded quickly to our initial inquiry, which put us at ease during the planning process. The seating arrangement was very flexible and we were able to easily adjust it to suit our needs using their online editor, though there was a bit of a learning curve. We loved the rustic vibe of the space with modern touch of the chandelier style. Willowynn Barn also went above and beyond to ensure our wedding day went smoothly - they made sure the wedding party was fed during the transition between the ceremony and reception, and had police supervision to keep the venue safe. The appearance of a friendly donkey for guests to take photos with was an added bonus that our guests raved about. Overall, we highly recommend Willowynn Barn for any couple looking for a beautiful, accommodating, and well-run wedding venue.

Willowynn was the first and only venue I had to visit. I was sold the minute I stepped foot on the venue. It is such a magical place with beautiful views at any time of the year. When I booked the venue the atrium hadn’t even been built yet, I was simply sold on the vision of what it could be. The venue was so beautiful on the day of, my guests had all their jaws on the floor. When you step into the reception hall you cannot help but feel a sense of awe because it is just such a gorgeous place with high ceilings and natural lighting coming from everywhere. Do not skip out on making use of the atrium for photos! The bridal suite brought all my princess dreams to life of course but my husband also was treated like a king because they actually have a groom’s suite. Yes, you heard me they do not shove their men into a coat closet. It is a whole suite for the men to hang out and it is decadent. However, Willowynn is so much more than just a beautiful venue it is the people that really make it. Everyone who works there really makes you feel like family when you arrive. They could make anything happen without you having finished speaking it out loud. The night before when we had dropped off our stuff for the venue it was late and we wanted to just go anywhere for dinner but Alisha got on the phone and made a dinner reservation for 15 people before we could even bat an eye. I forgot a speaker for getting ready and magically one was already plugged in the bridal suite. I don’t think a bride could even try to be stressed at Willowynn. Trust me, I tried to stress. It was just impossible when you have such a professional staff buzzing around making literal dreams come true. The whole planning process was so simple, at any point when I had a question I could reach out and have it answered. I also highly recommend that you use all their friendors. When you put together a team of people that are used to working together you will not have to answer any questions because they all just simply work so well together. I could not have made a better decision than to have picked Willowynn. You also cannot have a wedding with Willie because he truly is the star of the show, we were just opening acts!

Currently the venue is closed on those dates, however if you have a special occasion or event that you would like to host on days (Mon-Thur) please contact us for possible booking, pricing and availability.

Absolutely! We are encouraging couples only to do an in person tour at this time. Anyone interested in booking their event at Willowynn can also schedule a virtual tour of the space. Call or email to schedule a consultation today.

Both suites have private garden areas, luxurious seating areas, TV & sound systems, and small bar areas with a mini fridge. Also, the grooms room will convert into a child care area after the ceremony begins. On-site nanny will be available for hire. We encourage you to come out and tour the venue prior to booking.

We want our guests to make the event experience unique and all your own, so any vendor you want to use is acceptable with them having liability insurance. Bartenders must be from Tipsy Cowgirls. We will need to know your vendors beforehand to allow them access to the property and arrange for proper insurance. We can also provide a list of local vendors or make recommendations based on our experience.
