About

Elegant Barns is a family-owned contemporary wedding venue in East Palatka in Jacksonville, Florida. The friendly on-site team will work with each set of nearlyweds to design an unforgettable ceremony and reception at their tranquil countryside location.

Facilities and Capacity

The Sunshine State is named so for good reason, as couples regularly choose an outdoor ceremony by the lake. With tall trees backdropping the wedding arch, family and friends can relax in the warm Florida sun as they watch their loved ones swap vows and say, "I do." With such a stunning view, it would almost be impolite to pass up the opportunity for newlywed pictures by the waterside. While the cameraperson captures these timeless moments, guests can enjoy cocktail hour with the beverage of their choice as they mingle and catch up. As the clock ticks towards late afternoon, the happy couple can lead their nearest and dearest to the indoor Elegant Barns Banquet Hall for an evening of dining and dancing. The hall can comfortably accommodate up to 150 people seated to celebrate a night they will remember forever.

Services Offered

The brilliant event professionals at Elegant Barns offer a variety of wedding day packages to appeal to all budgets, tastes, and styles. These all-encompassing packages provide a range of services, from set up and catering to floristry and DJs and so much more. The team at Elegant Barns will discuss the color scheme, theme, and overall vibe of each wedding with their clientele to ensure every aspect reflects their unique love story.

A hidden gem!

We couldn’t be happier with the service provided throughout the process. Sherri & Cliff are great to work with and this venue is well worth traveling to! You get to customize your wedding day to your liking, have fun with purchasing DIY that really creates YOUR day.

Incredible Value

Elegant Barns Venue made our dream wedding come true! From start to finish, everything about this place was perfect. Sherri was absolutely amazing. She went above and beyond to help us with the decorations, food setup, and overall coordination. I honestly didn’t even need to hire a wedding planner because Sherri handled everything with such care and attention to detail.

The venue itself is beautiful and spacious with so many great features. We loved having the on-site Airbnbs, one for the bridal party and one for the groomsmen, so everyone could get ready separately before the ceremony. The staircase entrance made for a stunning moment when we finally saw each other.

The ceremony space was gorgeous and the sound system worked perfectly. We had microphones for announcements and our DJ was able to set up with no issues at all. The reception area had plenty of room for food, desserts, dancing, and guests to mingle without feeling crowded.

As the night went on, the sunset over the farmland created the most incredible backdrop for our rustic theme. Between the scenery, the setup, and Sherri’s help, our wedding day was everything we dreamed of and more. Highly recommend Elegant Barns Venue to anyone wanting a truly magical wedding experience!
