Best Wedding Venue!

We had our wedding at the Preston barn on 9/30/23 and it was absolutely the best decision we made in the entire wedding process. We were completely blown away the first time we visited and we knew it was our dream venue. Helene is so incredible, from the first visit through the wedding day she was so helpful, kind and patient with any questions we had. She really made us feel so special and heard throughout the planning. If I could give Helene 1000 stars I would!

We loved having a full wedding weekend on site and it was so special to have our bridal party and parents stay with us onsite in the Inn and Carriage House. We had our Rehearsal Dinner onsite as well as an after party in the Tavern and Sunday brunch and it was so awesome to celebrate in the same location all weekend. The Inn-Keeper, Jeff, is amazing and so accomodating. He made us feel so welcome!

The food the entire weekend was top tier and we still have guests telling us how good it was! The passed apps at cocktail hour were incredible and the staff even set up a table to the side of our ceremony with all the apps we selected as well as our signature cocktails to enjoy a private toast with our bridal party and parents right after the ceremony before we headed to cocktail hour. We did a family style dinner which we are still getting compliments on because it gave guests the opportunity to try multiple options and connect with one another while passing around the plates.

The dance floor is huge and we had an amazing time dancing the night away with our friends and family. There is also a firepit which we brought s'mores supplies for and guests were able to take a break from dancing and hang out by the fire as they pleased.

The vibe of the whole property is immaculate, from the 18th century Inn to the modern rustic barn, it's just such a cool spot and unique from many of the ballroom weddings we had attended. We absolutely loved planning our wedding here and the venue really brought our vision and dream to life. We highly recommend having your wedding here!

Helene and staff were nothing short of amazing on our big day. My husband and I got married on 11/4/23. Helene took so much stress off of me when it came to planning. The food was amazing as well! Oh, and we can't forget the staff and inn keeper! All were so nice and helpful. Everything went so smooth. They made everything work from accommodating allergies to grandparent accessibility to the venue. I would get married there over and over again.

The best venue around!

I can’t say enough about how happy we are that we chose The Preston Barn at Old Drovers Inn for our Daughter’s wedding. Helene and her staff were absolutely amazing from beginning to end! Our guests haven’t stopped talking about how much they enjoyed themselves and how attentive the staff were. Helene took charge of everything so we didn’t have to worry about anything! If we thought of something, Helene already had it covered! Chef also did not disappoint! He offered a wide variety of menu options that were absolutely delicious! When you walk into the Preston barn for the first time, it immediately makes you feel like you’re visiting family. It’s so warm and inviting. It’s a beautiful venue. Having the option to also stay on-site at the Old Drovers Inn worked out perfectly for us. Jeff made us feel right at home and was available for anything we needed and the breakfast buffet was amazing! If you’re looking for a venue for a special celebration, I highly recommend The Preston Barn at Old Drovers Inn. I guarantee you will not be disappointed!
