Black River Barn Review

The BRB team was such a treat to work with! They made our big day go by without a hitch. Everyone was so sweet and answered all of our questions. We did a final walk through a couple weeks before the big day, it was so nice to have that and start to see my vision come to life. I couldn't recommend Black River Barn more. The venue is absolutely gorgeous, they truly have thought of everything there. I knew the moment we saw the venue that I just had to have my wedding there. If you are thinking of booking the venue for your big day, DO IT! It was the best decision we made.
