History This venue was initially built by local craftsman, having been used for fabricating and repairing horse drawn carriages and wagons. In later years, it was used to re-mill lumber from old cabins and barns so that they could be used in new homes. This charming barn has now been restored and updated, making it a unique venue for hosting private gatherings.

My Daughter had her Wedding on 9-19-2020. It was a wonderful day in a beautiful place. As with COVID impacted weddings, We had to postponed the event from June to September. The owners were very accommodating and helpful throughout the planning as the day of the wedding. We are very grateful to Susan and Wayne. It was a pleasure to work with them. Vintage Barn Events is the perfect place for a wonderful and magical wedding. I highly recommend it.

Truly a fairy tale setting
My husband and I were married on 4/17/21, and choosing this venue for our wedding was one of the best decisions we've ever made. It is in a beautiful, very private location. It is very affordable--especially given that you have access to it for the entire weekend. You have time to set up on Friday, get married on Saturday, and the stress of cleaning up can be left for Sunday. One of my favorite things about the barn is that it doesn't require a lot of decorations. The barn is beautiful on its own--the drapes with twinkle lights in the rafters, the twinkle lights on the staircase banister, and the rustic decor is pretty much all you need. But if you do want a little something extra, Susan has a closet full of decorations you can use--for free! The final thing I will say is how wonderful the owners are to work with. Susan was very responsive to my emails, she allowed me to come to the barn multiple times before the wedding to aid in my planning, and she offered many useful suggestions when choosing other vendors. And on our actual wedding day, they were available to make sure things went forward without a hitch. It truly was the perfect day.

Beautiful venue, great owners, and overall wonderful experience
I cannot recommend the Vintage Barn enough! As with many COVID impacted weddings, it seemed that our wedding plans continued to evolve and change leading all the way to our wedding day itself. Susan was incredibly communicative and handled all of our questions, challenges, and evolving plans with such grace and patience. It really helped to ease all of the stress associated with planning a wedding. The barn is gorgeous and little decoration is needed as the barn itself is a highlight and shines on its own. My husband and I grew up in the area and we knew from the moment we walked through the doors that the space would be perfect for our rustic, laid back, DIY wedding. Not to mention the stellar deal that you are able to access the space Friday, Saturday, and Sunday for prep and cleanup as well! We also knew that we wanted to support the small local businesses in the area, so we were appreciative that we had the flexibility of the barn to really make it our own and utilize the vendors we wanted. There is so much potential at the barn to make each wedding unique and special for each individual couple and I would highly recommend this venue.
