Beautiful Venue and Wonderful Staff

My spouse and I got married at the Red Barn on September 1st, and we cannot say enough good things about the venue! Everyone in attendance commented on how beautiful the barn and the outdoor space are. We didn’t really need to decorate because the space is so gorgeous as is. One of the greatest selling points for us was the beautiful outdoor space with a large tree to have the ceremony under. I was originally hesitant to get married outside in Massachusetts because of the unpredictable weather, but the Red Barn has an airtight rain plan and the indoor backup is also beautiful.

Aside from the beauty of the venue, the staff are the true selling point. We worked with Ella as our day-of coordinator, and she is absolutely fantastic. Her role in the process far exceeded what I expected from a day-of coordinator - she was in regular contact with us as we planned in the entire year ahead of the wedding. My favorite thing about Ella is that she is effortlessly on top of every last detail while remaining so calm and centered. I was worried about feeling anxious and distracted by the details on the day of the wedding, but there was nothing to worry about with Ella in charge. She knew the chance of rain down to one percentage point (it did not rain!). She removed unnecessary chairs from the ceremony site when guests cancelled at the last minute, and pulled their place cards to keep any chairs from looking empty. She was so kind and helpful the whole day. Her personality made everyone in the room calmer and more present. We would highly recommend the Red Barn (and Ella!) to anyone considering it for their wedding!

Beyond thrilled with our experience

We had the most amazing experience with this venue. Not only was the site location gorgeous and everything we had hoped for, but the team was exceptional. Victoria was our coordinator and she answered all of our questions and provided suggestions to help bring our vision to fruition. She was a blast to work with and kept everything organized and running smoothly all the way leading up to the wedding and then the actual day of. The food was phenomenal and people are still talking about what a great day it was. We could not be any happier and our day was perfect because of the team and the grounds. We cannot recommend The Red Barn enough.

Above and Beyond

I had never planned on getting married in my hometown, but when I stepped into the Red Barn for a tour I instantly knew this would be our venue. The gorgeous setting for our ceremony against the oak tree, set far back from a quiet road, the gorgeous barn interior and perfect bridal suite - it was all better than I imagined. The highlight of my wedding planning process was our coordinator, Ella Colton. She truly held my hand the entire way, giving me recommendations, keeping me of track, and making suggestions when I was totally lost. The day of, her and the Red Barn team made everything so simple and easy. Ella helped bustle my dress, made sure I ate and drank, and kept me on schedule. The banquet team and bartenders were so great and the food was delicious! I truly can't imagine having our ceremony anywhere else!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.

The Red Barn at Hampshire College is excellent. I had never shot in a barn type venue before and had requested to visit the facility in advance of a wedding ceremony. Isabel had gladly allowed me to walk the grounds and conduct test shots throughout the facility prior to the wedding. Because of that advance visit, the bride and groom was able to get wonderful and beautiful shots throughout the venue. I love working with the staff of the Red Barn and had a wonderful time. They were extremely friendly and went out their way to make sure we were all set. I felt like we were in good hands. I would recommend the Red Barn at Hampshire College to have a celebration there.
