The Venue, the Views, and the Owners Made Our Day Absolutely Perfect

There are truly no words that can fully capture how perfect our wedding day was at The Oak Barn at Loyalty. Yes, the venue itself is absolutely stunning—rolling hills, mountain views, the most charming Amish-built barn, and thoughtful spaces for every part of the day. But what truly sets this venue apart are the owners, Ernie and Barb.

From the moment we toured the venue, we knew we were in the best hands. Ernie and Barb are two of the kindest, most organized, and detail-oriented people I’ve ever met. They were with us every step of the way—before, during, and after the wedding—ensuring that everything ran seamlessly. Their calm presence and clear communication allowed me to truly relax and enjoy every second of the day, knowing that they had every detail handled. And they absolutely delivered.

The space itself is incredibly versatile and thoughtfully designed. Our ceremony felt intimate and picturesque with the stunning backdrop of the mountains. Our guests enjoyed a beautiful cocktail hour with plenty of space to mingle, and the barn was the perfect setting for an unforgettable reception. We also loved adding personal touches like a cigar bar near the fire pit, which created such a cozy, fun atmosphere for guests to unwind later in the evening.

The Oak Barn at Loyalty is more than just a venue—it’s a labor of love, and you can feel that in every inch of the space and every interaction with Ernie and Barb. They made our dream wedding come to life in a way we could have never imagined. Everything was perfect.

If you are considering getting married here — stop looking. You’ve found the place. I cannot recommend it enough.

Perfect experience at Oak Barn!

We had our wedding at the Oak Barn in May and absolutely loved it! The venue was beautiful and perfect for our wedding and we lucked out with amazing weather. The barn is immaculate, well crafted, and has all the modern amenities you need. Working with Barb and Ernie was also great, as they are real pros who know how to work with all the support staff to ensure the couple has an amazing experience. We would highly recommend!
