Perfect Spot!

This venue is amazing for both the ceremony, reception, and cocktail space. It was so beautiful.

Liz and Emily were so easy to work with and they helped us to feel comfortable and heard throughout the whole process.  And of course, for answered our endless questions.  It was so easy to trust that they would make sure everything turned out great.

Highland recommended!

Beautiful Wedding in the Woods!

We were married at the Barn at Fallingwater in September of 2019. This venue is the most beautiful, intimate wedding spot for laid back couples who love the outdoors and want a space that allows for a relaxing vibe in nature.

We loved having our wedding at The Barn at Fallingwater. We chose to have our ceremony in the clearing in the woods, got ready in the Farmhouse, used the Fireplace Room for our cocktail hour, opted for photos at Fallingwater house and had our reception in the Hayloft. Aside from the uncontrollable heat of the day, the barn gave me the perfect canvas. I chose to stray away from the popular "rustic" themed weddings and glammed the barn up for a classy 1920's Speakeasy party. It was beautiful and was described to me as "glowing". Perfect for anyone looking for rustic, in the woods, or canvas to try something new/different...

The Barn also comes with their coordinator, Kate. She is amazing, timely, and knows her stuff. No problems what so ever.

Absolutely perfect venue! Didn't need much decoration because of its natural, rustic beauty! It's truly a gem and the event coordinator, Kate Andyjohn was beyond helpful! She broke her foot yet still made sure everything was done on time and helped with tables and everything! She was so friendly and asked every one of my extensive questions! She was perfect! The venue is absolutely gorgeous. I couldn't have asked for a more perfect place!

Amazing experience! Every little detail was taken care of. We did spend a little more than we were planning, but it was well worth it.

Totally recommend!

My husband and I got married at the Barn in September 2019 and had a great experience! There are multiple options for how a wedding could go there but we had all of our 'activities' on the same property: an outdoor ceremony in the woods, the cocktail hour was on the flagstone patio right outside of the barn, and the reception with dinner/dancing was on the large second level of the barn. This is a "DIY venue"--they have tables and chairs but they do make you rent everything you don't own from a specific rental company, we had to bring in our own caterer, decorate ourselves, etc. We were pretty set on doing things this way anyway so we could personalize everything but it was a lot of work! The staff event coordinator Amy was great to work with, good with communication, and super kind and helpful. If you're looking for a venue with a more laid back, rustic/boho vibe with a strong connection to nature (it's in arguably the most beautiful part of PA) I would definitely recommend Fallingwater!

This was a wonderful event location for our reception and ceremony! We loved being married in the wooded amphitheater. It was such a beautiful and unique location for all of out of town guests to experience. Katelyn, the event coordinator, was wonderful and made everything go smoothly!

The Barn at Fallingwater and Kate in particular are fantastic! We had both our ceremony & reception at the Barn and also included the optional photo session at Fallingwater. Kate was very helpful in our planning, recommending a rental company and going above and beyond to help us plan our destination wedding. The venue is unique and beautiful, just what we were looking for. Having Kate there as such an awesome resource was icing on the cake.

We could not have picked a more perfect venue for our day. Everything went amazingly smoothly! I was nervous for a few months prior, as it did take the coordinator, Kate, a while to respond to e-mails or phone calls. (Sometimes it would take multiple emails/a phone call to get a response about a particular question.) BUT! Please don't let that worry you! When you arrive to set up for your wedding day, you understand why! Kate is BUSY. We were there most of the day Friday, all day Saturday, and part of the afternoon on Sunday either setting up, enjoying the wedding, or breaking it all down and she was heavily involved in every part of it.

I had no idea that the staff at the barn would help so much, but they truly did and they were fantastic. It took a lot of pre-wedding stress off. If you are doing a DIY wedding, this venue is the way to go. They let us set up from 9:00-5:00 on Friday (not that we needed the whole time,) Saturday morning, and even though there was a party Sunday afternoon, they let us back in that morning for about another hour of clean up. Amazing! Where else will you find that?

Yes, it is pricey, but it is worth it if this atmosphere is what you want. Our wedding was budget, and with suggestions from Kate on the best caterer for us, did not end up being an uber-expensive bill in the end.

Having our wedding at Fallingwater was probably the best decision we made for the day. It was perfect.

We loved having our wedding at the Barn at Fallingwater. It was a beautiful setting and received so many compliments. We definitely took advantage of having time the day before to set up for the wedding. The ceremony site was well wooded and intimate... it also was recently redone and looks very nice. The only issue we had was with all the rain, it was a bit muddy and we were worried it would cause people to slip and fall. Everything went off without a hitch and it was a beautiful venue. The farmhouse was a bit disappointing and outdated to get ready in, so we opted to not take pictures there. Be aware the Barn is not air-conditioned. While most of our guests were fine... some were uncomfortable until the sun went down. We worked with Kate Andyjohn the event coordinator before and she was very difficult to get in touch with. Lea was fabulous when she took over and was very quick to respond and help us the best she could.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
