Sept 2025 wedding

We got married at Powder Mill Barn on 9/20/2025 and it was perfect! From the beginning, Polly was highly communicative, quick to respond and professional, no matter how often I texted her with silly questions. The barn is beautiful and well-kept, as well as the outdoor space. I would definitely recommend this venue!

Our October 19th 2024 Wedding at Powder Mill Barn

All I can say is WOW! Powder Mill Barn will forever have a place in my heart. Beautiful place, beautiful history, and owned by such a kind soul, Polly. My husband and I just had our wedding here two days ago and we already miss it! Polly, her husband, and Megan were absolutely amazing! We have literally zero complaints, the only complaint I have is that we can’t go back in time and relive the day we had at this beautiful place. If you were looking for a reason to book this venue, let this be your reason! You will not regret it! Polly, in a few years when we are ready to have a baby shower you will definitely be receiving a call from us!🥰

Beautiful Rustic Wedding

My daughter and son-in-law just celebrated their wedding at Powder Mill Barn and it was absolutely beautiful! The ceremony was outside on their gorgeous grounds and the reception was held in their beautiful barn. Polly was great to work with and always responded quickly to help with any questions. Their recommendation of Megan from Atlantic Party Favors was fantastic too. We had the best experience and I would absolutely recommend a wedding or celebration at Powder Mill Barn!

Delightful December Wedding

The Powder Mill Barn was the best venue for our wedding. The string lights and lighting backdrop made for the perfect Christmas wedding. Polly, the owner, was so responsive and helped to make our wedding day one to remember forever. The barn was cozy and allowed for the intimate wedding we dreamed of. The barn allowed us to have the ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception all in the same room. Our day was better than we could ever dreamed of! We’d recommend the Powder Mill Barn for anyone looking for a rustic wedding experience!!

Perfect rustic wedding

We were one of the first weddings at this venue before they really started doing weddings. I love how much they spruced up the place since we got married there in 2017. We loved the barn and the field for our wedding. We wanted a backyard wedding feel and absolutely got it with this venue. We still have people raving about our wedding and the location!

Unique Dreamy Venue

Me and my now husband didn’t want your average ballroom wedding venue, we wanted something unique. Powder mill barn is just that and more! It’s absolutely gorgeous inside, and the outdoor property is also stunning! It truly gives you a magical, dreamy feeling and all my guests were blown away and said they’ve never been to a wedding like ours! We had a perfect day!

The perfect venue

We recently got married at the Powder mill barn. We rented the barn for 2 days so we had time to set up and run our rehearsal. The owner, Polly, is very flexible, accommodating and easily reachable!! The rental cost is reasonable, the grounds are gorgeous; we did an outdoor ceremony and indoor seating/band for the reception. We wanted food trucks and there was plenty of space for them to set up. Inside the barn is so cozy and charming!! The wood, the lights, everything was perfect! Definitely would recommend this venue !

Wedding May 14th 2022

The barn is absolutely beautiful and well kept. Polly (the owner) and Megan (wedding coordinator), we’re always quick to answer questions and we’re extremely helpful. We had no worries about the day because they were so well at organizing everything!

P e r f e c t i o n!

I really wish we were able to rate 100 stars!! Polly, Megan (day of coordinator) as well as the other vendors we had were absolutely PHENOMENAL. Polly was patient, kind and an all around wonderful human being. Polly was extremely responsive and willing to work with us with any questions/comments/concerns we had. She bent over backwards to make sure we were happy and enjoyed the venue. The venue itself can sell itself but Polly makes those personal connections that make it so much better and worth it!
We can not recommend the Barn enough and will be booking for future events no questions asked!!! Thank you Polly and Rich for making our special day even more special! ❤️❤️
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
