Our newly restored barn will bring you back to the farm, to a time and a place when things were anything but complicated. Massive oak beams will greet you, as you enter through sliding barn doors, and draw your eyes up to a high cathederal like ceiling adorned with hanging pendant lighting. There is plenty of seating on two levels, each with ground access as well as an ash-wood framed balcony. A mobile bar, made of re-fashioned farm house doors, can be stocked with Iron Fish Distillery homegrown spirits or decked out with your choice of refreshments. Stroll down the flowing path from the back of the barn to the wood's edge to our ceremony space where pine benches surround our oak-beam arch and the maple trees provide the perfect backdrop for your vows.
Have a cocktail, dance a little and make some memories in a space that is anything but complicated. Simple and elegant. You and your guests will remember the heartfelt treasure of the Iron Fish Barn for years to come.

We had our wedding at the Iron Fish in August. It was absolute perfection. With the flexibility and team work, the day could not have gone any smoother. We rented the farmhouse on property for the girls the night before and then my husband and I after the wedding. It was such a fairytale setting. Taylor and the team at Iron Fish accommodated everything I wanted for my day. I can not recommend this venue enough. I was worried about the fact that the tasting room was open right next door, but on the day of we didnt even remember it was there. The pictures turned out absolutely stunning! Thank you so much!
