Beautiful Rustic Venue and Very Helpful Owners

My husband and I were married at Rustic Grace on 11/1/2025. It was such a perfect venue with a rustic touch from the bride and groom suite and outside setting, to the inside of the barn. The owners were so kind, accommodating, and very helpful. We could not recommend this place more!

Beautiful Location & Perfect for a Summer Wedding

My husband and I had an August wedding at Rustic Grace events, and it was truly a magical day! The country landscape provided the perfect opportunity for rustic photos, and the large barn allowed our 150+ guest list to be accommodated for. The service was second to none, with the price easily fitting within our budget. We were so grateful to find this space!

Renovated Historic Wedding Venue

Rustic Grace Events is truly a hidden gem, located just outside Dayton, Ohio in the farmlands of Darke County. The historic barn has been newly renovated to a modern look and feel while preserving the beauty of the barn’s age. The farm grounds had plenty of areas for guests explore, great photo ops, and antique tractors to view. We especially enjoyed the custom made bar area as the decorations, lighting, and ambiance created a unique area to converse and enjoy beverages. The finished second level of the barn also provided many spots to overlook the dance floor and tables. Our special day couldn’t have gone better. If you’re looking for a beautiful, private, and peaceful venue for your wedding day, we would highly recommend Rustic Grace!

Beautiful Venue and Amazing Coordinator

We had a wonderful experience at Rustic Grace! The venue was stunning and had so many beautiful spots for pictures (I especially love my pictures taken in the woods). The bridal suite was perfect for getting ready—plenty of seating, mirrors, a TV, and a private bathroom. All my guests raved about how beautiful the barn was with all the fairy lights and little elegant details.

Jackee, the venue coordinator, was absolutely amazing! She eased my nerves and made sure all my vendors were comfortable and knew where to go. As a more "hands-off" bride without strong decor preferences, I appreciated how she went out of her way to show me different table settings and decoration ideas for the ceremony and reception. It's obvious that she's a seasoned wedding coordinator.

I couldn't have asked for a better venue!

SanFillipo Wedding

I have never been more pleased and happy. Jackee & Joe are the absolute most laid back and down to earth people. This vision they have created is breathtaking and easily makes every bride and grooms dream wedding come true. From the flexibility of having time to decorate and rehearse the day before, to the entire day of to relax and not rush to get ready, all while doing it all at your own pace. 2 outdoor spots to choose for your ceremony, the backyard was so picture perfect. The communication and hospitality is on point from start to finish.the rustic charm and spaciousness of the indoor barn for your perfect reception, it’s so beautiful that you hardly need to decorate. Not to mention the absolute breathtaking scenery across the street where you have other numerous picture options to make your fairytale rustic charm! This venue is one of a kind with lots of hard work and dedicated time which makes it different from all the rest. Highly recommend this to anyone! I would get married a million times over again just to re live this moment.
