One of a Kind, More Than Just a Venue!
Searching for a venue for one of the biggest days of your life is hard, it is a big decision. Let me tell you though - choosing the barns for our wedding was absolutely the best decision we could have made. The venue itself is beautiful, extremely well kept, and has options for both indoor and outdoor ceremony so you have zero stress the day of your wedding. On top of that, the staff is truly incredible. Kylie, the event manager/coordinator, was literally my saving grace. She helped me from the very start to the very end, without her I am not even sure I could have planned my wedding. She walks you through every step of the way! She is so organized, always on top of her game, efficient, responsive, thorough, and one of the nicest people I have met. She truly cares about you and making sure your vision is brought to life. Everything that a bride could want or need for her wedding. We got to work with the rest of the staff the weekend of our wedding and they all had no issue living up to the high bar Kylie set. We are so so thankful for this place and these people, we will cherish our day forever because of them!

Everything we could have asked for!
An amazing experience from beginning to end. They were willing to make a custom package for us to fit our price point and needs for a smaller than normal wedding. Delaney was an wonder to work with as our coordinator from first thought and planning to day of making everything streamlined and flawless

The Most Perfect Day!!
From the moment we first toured The Barns of Kanak, we knew it was the perfect place for our wedding. The team made us feel instantly at home — warm, accommodating, knowledgeable, and genuinely caring. Booking with them was one of the best decisions we made!! The entire planning process was seamless thanks to their clear communication and quick responses.
They recommended incredible vendors who worked flawlessly with the venue, making coordination effortless. I especially want to highlight our phenomenal day-of coordinator, Emily Hartman. Words can't express how grateful I am for her professionalism, kindness, and calming presence throughout the process. She made me feel so special and took so much stress off my shoulders — I truly don’t know what I would’ve done without her!
The wedding day itself was absolutely magical! Every detail was thoughtfully executed, and the entire Barns of Kanak team went above and beyond to ensure everything was exactly how we envisioned it. Their dedication, professionalism, and genuine care made our day perfect.
If you're looking for a venue that combines beauty, heart, and an exceptional team — look no further. The Barns of Kanak will make all your wedding dreams come true!!

Barns of Kanak was amazing!
BOK was everything we could have asked for for our wedding venue! The staff, especially Delaney, were all amazing. Her being so hands on once we hit the 60 day mark made the entire process so much easier and she truly was a life saver. Everything about the day went as planned and it in part to the hard working and dedicated staff at BOK. This does not even account for how beautiful the property is, the pictures speak for themselves. We would highly recommend BOK for your wedding venue.

Amazing venue and staff!
The Barns of Kanak is the most incredible wedding venue EVER! Their staff are so communicative and accommodating to my husband and I's schedules, especially since we did not live within the area. The property is beautiful and even on a rainy and cold day, the staff ensured we stayed dry, warm, and had a beautiful wedding. The Barns even helped our wedding party out when the power went out in our hotel. Our coordinator, Stacie, was incredible!! She answered all of our questions and was in constant contact with us leading up to wedding day. Her and her assistant did an amazing job on wedding day, making sure we were sticking to schedule and keeping my husband and I stress-free. We could not recommend this venue enough, they are truly one of a kind and want their couples and their guests to have the most memorable and beautiful weddings. Highly, highly recommend.

Dream come true
Barns of Kanak was absolutely the most stunning venue I have ever seen/been to. My wedding day here was like a dream come true and the team there is phenomenal. They are very clear with what to expect and also provide a lot of decor/supplies you can use instead of having to make or buy everything yourself. Although it is quite expensive, it does come with a coordinator, a rehearsal time, decor, and much more.

Kesha & Patrick Harper Wedding
The Barns of Kanak is a beautiful venue. From the day we did our visit we knew this was the right venue for us. Everyone was so welcoming and made us feel like family. Everyone was so professional and the communication was outstanding. Rehearsal to arrival at the Farmhouse and Cottage was smooth. Delaney is an awesome coordinator and words cannot express how grateful we are. I was freaking out when I didn't know what to do when some of my wedding party could not be in attendance Delaney fixed it and made the wedding party walk look like it was planned that way. Delaney and crew made our day so seamless, beautiful and perfect. We enjoyed celebrating our special day at The Barns of Kanak!!!!!

Best venue!
The Barns of Kanak will always hold such a special place in our hearts. My husband Brandon and I recently got married here on 11/11/2023.
From the moment I toured The Barns with Diane I knew that this was the venue I wanted to get married at. The feeling you get while walking through the property is indescribable. It is breathtakingly beautiful. The Barns of Kanak is rustic elegant and offers so much from both indoor/outdoor ceremony spaces, full access to decor barn, and a coordinator starting from 60 days out.
When we met Delaney at our 60 day out meeting I instantly knew that we would be in excellent hands. She and I share the same Type A personality which was an immediate vibe and connection!
Her communication with us and our vendors really made the rest of the planning process leading up to the wedding so seamless.
Our wedding day was absolutely perfect! Delaney, Hope, and the rest of the staff at BOK took such great care of us and our guests. We did not have to worry about a single thing, and they handled the entire day with such grace. Tom and Diane stopped by during our reception to congratulate us which was extremely special. The biggest compliment I received from our guests was that "it felt like one big family and it was evident how much they care." We decided on the overnight stay at the Farmhouse which was the best decision ever. It was decorated for us with champagne and rose petals. Diane even delivered breakfast the next morning for us to enjoy. I 100% recommend The Barns of Kanak to any bride and groom who is in search of their perfect wedding venue. Thank you to Diane + Tom, Delaney, and the rest of the BOK family! We are forever grateful! Cheers, The Grays!

BOK Wedding
Where do I even begin!? I cannot say enough great things about the Barns of Kanak and all the staff. From the moment we toured the venue with Kylie I knew this is where I wanted my now husband & I to get married. The venue is absolutely BREATHTAKING and checked off all the boxes of what I wanted in a venue. There is a bridal house, groom’s house, decor to pick from, and most importantly a beautiful property. Thankfully the weather on our wedding day was perfect, so we were able to get married outside of the red barn. However, just incase the weather wasn’t the best, there is a beautiful covered metal barn which is such a relief to have a plan B and alleviated a lot of stress. My husbands parents live out of state and we reached out to BOK when they were coming to visit asking if we could bring them to see the venue & without hesitation Diane said absolutely and scheduled time that weekend for us to come by! We had the pleasure of having Delaney as our coordinator & I cannot say enough great things about her! She was always on top of everything! She guided us through everything we needed to do for the wedding & was always available for any questions we had & quick to respond. She always had a smile on her face & never made us feel like we were being a bother. During our 60 day meeting, she walked us through our timeline and connected with each of our vendors, which allowed us to truly enjoy planning our wedding and not stress about connecting with our vendors about all the little details as our wedding approached. I can honestly say that on our wedding day my husband & I did not feel one ounce of stress. Delaney & the BOK staff handled absolutely everything & allowed us to be fully present with our friends & family at our wedding. I seriously could go on & on about the Barns of Kanak. We truly cannot thank Kylie, Diane, Delaney, and all the BOK staff enough!! The Barns of Kanak will always be such a special place for my husband & I!
