Fairytale wedding!
We had our wedding reception at The Barker Tavern on December 29,2018 and it was nothing short of a fairytale. From the minute we set foot in the Barker, we knew it was the perfect spot for us. The decorations, sparkling lights, dazzling fireplace, and warm reception were incredible. Becky and her staff were attentive, kind, and genuinely involved throughout the whole process to make our day the best it could possibly be. Judy helped us through every step of our reception and kept us calm. By the time I reached the end of the process, I felt like I had made a lifelong friend in Becky. Every day, we look through our pictures and remember what a wonderful, special day it was. All of our guests were amazed with the beauty of the room, the delicious food, and the quality of the service. We highly recommend The Barker!

I had my wedding reception at The Barker Tavern last Saturday (9/8/18). Becky and her staff are amazing, wonderful people. You will not worry about anything with your special day in their hands. I could not have planned a destination wedding without Becky's amazing help. That plus a beautiful, twinkling venue with pristine gardens made for a perfect, perfect day. Thanks again to Becky, Judy and the rest of The Barker staff for making our wedding simply perfect!
