Would recommend to anyone!

I cannot say enough great things about The Barn at Shady Grove! Shannon was so helpful from the moment we contacted for a tour throughout the entire wedding. I did not have to worry about a thing! They are extremely professional and flexible. With our wedding in March, they were prepared for the potential for rain and having to switch the ceremony inside. It only rained in the morning and Ken was outside drying off each ceremony chair prior to the wedding. Additionally, Ken is a phenomenal host and DJ. He truly kept everything on track with his well timed announcements and flow. I have had so many compliments on how fun and enjoyable our wedding was, and that has so much to do with how Shannon and Ken run the barn. I am so glad we had our wedding here! Ken and Shannon, thank you for blessing us with such a fun, smooth, and joyous experience!

Our Perfect Night

I cannot say enough amazing things about The Barn at Shady Grove. The venue itself is absolutely beautiful and made the night feel magical. Shannon and Ken were a blessing to work with. They made the day move along with ease and were there to answer any questions we had along the way in the planning process. They had recommendations for all types of vendors, and the vendors they recommended that we chose to go with were excellent. Everyone worked well together and made for a flawless and seemingly effortless day. As a bride I felt no stress. I was able to relax and truly enjoy the evening, and this is mostly due to the help of Shannon and Ken. I absolutely recommend you choose this stunning venue if you have the chance. You will not regret it!
