Such a wonderful and gorgeous place! I couldn't have been more impressed with the staff, the food, the flowers and the decorations. They did everything and it was first class. When I asked for something, they went above and beyond what was asked of them. So pleased!

The Barn is an absolutely beautiful venue inside and out. The property is clean, perfectly landscaped, and has stunning views. It’s gives a romantic, rustic, and very elegant setting. The lights and decor is perfect. It made me a proud mother for my daughter to get to have her dream wedding at such a wonderful location. The staff was very friendly, helpful, and professional. The food was excellent! I’m glad we have beautiful pictures to enjoy for a lifetime. We will also hold the beautiful memories made for a lifetime. The Barn and staff made that possible. Thank you again for a beautiful venue and wonderful service.
