    The 1932 Barn

    Right when we walked on the property, we knew we had found our venue. The 1932 Barn team got back to us quickly and kept everything fun while staying on top of the details. The coordinator made the day flow seamlessly, and the staff kept the space clean and organized from start to finish. What really impressed us was how helpful everyone was in making the venue look absolutely beautiful and exactly how we wanted it. The authentic charm of the barn and their genuine care for our wedding made the whole experience feel special. We couldn’t have asked for a better team to celebrate with us!

    Would recommend to all my favorite people

    I don’t even know where to start — The 1932 Barn was the very first venue we toured, and we instantly knew it was the one. I (the bride) do a lot of research, and no other venue even came close to comparing.

    Meeting Lori during our tour was the first sign that we were in incredible hands. If you want to meet someone who truly knows what she’s doing, go find Lori. She was confident in the best way possible, incredibly knowledgeable, and effortlessly answered all of my parents’ (slightly anxious!) questions, immediately putting us at ease.

    From that point on, every step of the process was easy and stress-free. Honestly, it felt like all we had to do was book with them, and they took care of the rest. If you want a venue that allows you to truly enjoy your wedding day instead of stressing through it, book The 1932 Barn.

    After booking, Michelle was always available and so thorough whenever we had questions, which made planning feel seamless. Hannah, our day-of coordinator, was absolutely perfect for us. Whether it was intentional matchmaking or the stars simply aligned, she matched our personalities and vision perfectly. She kept everything running smoothly and had our entire day under control while bringing such a fun, calm, and easygoing energy.

    The entire experience — the staff, the coordination, and the venue itself — was absolutely perfect. If we could do it 100 times over, we wouldn’t change a single thing. We are so grateful to The 1932 Barn team for making our wedding day everything we dreamed of and more.

    An Unforgettable Experience

    My husband and I got married at the 1932 Barn three weeks ago, and we truly couldn’t have asked for a better experience! We toured the venue in the fall and planned our entire wedding in less than four months—and the team made the whole process feel seamless.

    From our initial tour with Kristina, to planning with Michelle, our design appointment with Lori and Sarah, and our Day-Of Coordinator Madalyn (THEE BEST!), every single person was patient, attentive, and incredibly supportive. They answered every question and made sure every detail we wanted came to life.

    The rustic, warm atmosphere of the venue perfectly reflected who we are as a couple, and our guests felt it the moment they arrived. Most importantly, the team made sure we felt taken care of and able to fully enjoy our day.

    100/10 — highly recommend!

    Highly recommend!!

    The whole venue staff was absolutely AMAZING!!! We had Madalyn for our coordinator and she was phenomenal. I can’t speak highly enough of the job she did. The decor package is also a must, we didn’t have to lift a finger and they designed everything just how we wanted. They truly made our wedding day dreams come true!

    Beautiful rustic wedding venue

    The 1932 Barn was a beautiful venue for our daughter’s wedding! It met all of our expectations! It was a great experience working with Michelle & Hannah. They were great with communicating and answered questions quickly. The venue is beautiful both inside and outside! Thank you to Hannah and the staff for making our daughter’s wedding day beautiful!

    Loved the 1932 Barn

    Overall we had a great time at the 1932 Barn. The staff were super helpful on the big day. Even though it was pretty windy outside everything was calm and cool inside. All the guests really liked the venue and the overall flow. Even though it was attached to a working farm you never heard the animals…even though we were really hoping for a chicken exploration flock to come by.

    Hannah did a great job with all the last minute details as we were getting ready. It was even more staffed than I expected. I think all in there had to be 6-7 floating around making sure everything flowed smooth.

    All the pictures turned out great and we had an amazing sunset just as we were finishing dinner service and getting ready for dancing.

    the wedding of our dreams

    My husband and I got married here in the middle of December 2025. Our original venue had to cancel in late August of 2025 and we were scrambling to find a place that had our date available, a good reputation and an atmosphere that we both needed. My husband stumbled across the 1932 Barn and within a day we were invited to tour. Upon arrival we met Kristina, who is SUCH A DELIGHT! She answered all of our questions and went the extra mile to make this happen for us. Michelle was our coordinator and throughout the couple of months leading up to our wedding, she did all she could to ease our minds and help us plan the wedding of our dreams. Her and Sarah were our coordinators day of and let me tell you, they were born for this job. My husband and I were both so nervous and they were there to make sure everything went according to plan.
    We truly had a wedding that was more magical than we could have ever imagined. The staff are kind, generous and down to earth. They care about the families that come and go. I would recommend this venue 100/10!
    It was worth every penny!

    Beautiful evening

    My son got married at this venue last weekend and his grandmother and great aunts were able to attend..all in late 80s and need assistance walking. The staff went way above what was expected to make sure they got where they needed to be and that they needed NOTHING!! Continuously checked on them, helped get their meals prepared and delivered and repeatedly stopped by asking if they needed anything! I cannot say enough how grateful we all were for their professionalism and their commitment to the wedding guest! From the bottom of our hearts, we thank you!!!!!

    Look no further than the 1932 barn!

    The 1932 Barn is incredible! Don’t worry about searching for the perfect venue, because this is it!
    Many of our guests said that this was the best wedding they’d been to, and the venue was a big part of that.
    Not only is the 1932 barn beautiful (from ceremony to cocktail hour to reception), the organization and coordination is top-tier. The staff are professional, responsive, and organized. And they do everything with a smile on their face!
    I was so worried about the day. Whether the decor would be set up in my vision or the vendors would all know what to do and where to go. But when I got the venue that morning, I could tell it was all taken care of.

    My wedding was everything I wanted it to be and more. Thank you to Lori and Michelle! And a HUGE thank you to Hannah (our day of coordinator) for pulling it all together and making sure I wasn’t stressed

    Want it to be perfect? Go with 1932!

    I’ve had this venue booked for two years, as soon as I toured it I knew we were done searching. A stunning venue accompanied by an experienced team of professionals who never make you feel like a bother for having 1000 questions, I felt like I had a team holding my hand the whole time. Lori is responsive, incredibly helpful and intelligent, and knows exactly how to make your day one that you and your guests love! Hannah, our day of coordinator through 1932 was available all day, checked in on us regularly, and had the day running smooth as butter. You cannot go wrong with 1932 barn, and I’m so grateful for everyone!

    best night ever

    We had our wedding at 1932 Barn in May, and it was magical. Our priority was to gather all of our favorite people in the same place, and to throw a huge party, but we didn't give much thought to the details. When we went into the planning process, we didn't have any interest in flowers, table settings, etc. Lori and her team filled in ALL of the blanks for us. The entire process and night was coordinated seamlessly (my guests kept commenting on how efficient the buffet line was and how much they liked having name tags on their cocktail glasses), allowing us to focus on each other and our guests.

    Also, the venue is stunning. We had obviously visited to check it out initially, but were blown away when we arrived for our wedding. The venue is located on a working farm, so there were animals out at sunset (which our guests loved). For decorations, 1932 Barn has artificial florals which they'll arrange and clean up for you. I loved that this kept the entire event relatively low-waste.

    I could go on forever- it truly was the best night. I'm sad it's over (maybe we'll come back for our 50th anniversary-lol). Thank you so much Lori & team!

    Rustic, Beautiful Barn Venue with GREAT people!!

    I cannot say enough great things about the 1932 Barn as a wedding venue! Leading up to the wedding, the team was there to answer any question that I had and would go above and beyond in checking to make sure I was on track with planning. They even include decor and design in their cost which was so helpful because I didn't even know where to start!

    The day of our wedding it poured rain all morning. Hannah and Margo kept me posted on the plan and continuously checked the radar to see when the rain would let up. The rain stopped right before our ceremony and the venue team went out and wiped off all the seating and left umbrellas close in case it started again. To me, that meant the world. They knew people pick their venue to try to be outside and were willing to do all they could to get us out there. It ended up not raining the remainder of the night so everything was perfect:)

    Overall, our day was perfect in every way and I can't imagine getting married anywhere else. My husband and I didn't have to worry about a thing and our guests are still talking about how perfect everything was which is all thanks to the venue team!

    Incredible Venue & Staff!

    I got married here two weeks ago and would recommend The 1932 Barn to anyone looking for a wedding venue! We loved the rustic and warm atmosphere which is what sold us on this space. Lori is incredible to work with. She was so patient with me with all of my questions and when I had my design appointment with her, she looked at my inspo photos and made everything come to life! Hannah was our day of coordinator and she was absolutely amazing! She answered my hundreds of emails and questions leading up to the wedding with such patience and kindness. On the day of the wedding she made sure everything ran smoothly, she helped my bridal party with anything they needed, and she (and other staff) set up the wedding of my dreams. Quick shoutout to Andy and Jimmie, our bartenders for the night, they were also outstanding. They were fast and efficient and our signature cocktails were DELICIOUS! I absolutely cannot say enough good things about this venue!

    Absolutely Stunning Venue

    Lori and her team were fantastic. Michelle was our day of coordinator and we couldn’t have asked for better. Michelle was very available and willing to answer any and all questions we had. She was so calming and understanding throughout the planning and day of. Unfortunately it rained the day of our wedding and she and her team flipped the entire venue to the backup location and still had the wedding on time. We can’t recommend this place enough. The team was so amazing in completing set up, decor, and take down. They were able to assist guests with their questions. Michelle and her team were great with checking in to see if anything was needed while getting ready and even in the rain delay. This venue truly felt like home and we look forward to possibly having future events there!

    The Abbey/Barn

    I can not say enough about the amazing experience of working with Lori and her team. They were so organized and made my daughter's wedding day everything she wanted and more. Their location is wonderful. Their help and organization were flawless and they made it a day full of memories to be treasured forever. We knew from the moment we met them that they would do everything they could to make the day magical and perfect. This venue and the staff are the only place you need to look for a wedding. They are the best to work with and the best at what they do! I could not possibly recommend this venue more! The entire experience over the year of planning up to and including the day was stress-free because of them. They make wedding dreams come true!

    Beautiful Day!

    I Should have left this review a while ago, but time got away from me. I just can't say it enough about how wonderful the staff of The 1932 Barn was to work with to help us celebrate our daughter and her husband's wonderful day! Their friendly guidance, smiles, endless assistance, appearing at the right times to ask if we needed help, what we might want to drink, giving us direction, even telling us so kindly that something needed to be done differently, and genuinely seeming to enjoy working with us and our guests made the day that much more special!
    Thank you doesn't seem like enough when the event was so important to our family! I would RUN not walk to have your wedding, anniversary, or any event, at The 1932 Barn!

    Perfect venue!

    Leanne and Lori were absolutely amazing. We got married at the end of October this year and I couldn’t have asked for a better venue. They communicated with us for everything and made it so so easy.They were so welcoming and friendly and the Barn is just gorgeous. They took care of it all on the day of and made my wedding day stress free! I cannot thank them enough. I definitely recommend having your wedding here.

    Truly incredible!

    The 1932 Barn is TRULY the best place to get married. I am not kidding you when I say the staff is just absolutely amazing. Michelle was our lead for our wedding and she is INCREDIBLE. Words cannot describe how grateful I was to have her there that day with me. She was quite literally the talk of the town with her work in helping us. All of the staff helped me along as there was unfortunately rain in the forecast. They were so sweet and let me wait until the very last minute to decide whether or not to have it inside or outside. We did have it outside and they were completely prepared as a storm hit AS SOON as ceremony ended. Their package, staff, inventory, and help is what sold us. They were actually our first and only venue we looked at and we could not be more happier with our decision! They all take their parts very seriously and make you feel like you are the only person matters. I was actually recovering from being sick the week of and Michelle had brought me food and Tylenol to get my fever down. Right before the reception, my dress broke and Michelle literally comes to the rescue and sews it on me. I'm telling you, this woman is a superstar. We loved everyone and all The 1932 Barn did for us! You will not regret booking with them!

    Perfect choice, amazing managers!

    The 1932 barn was the perfect place for our wedding! We could not have been happier working with Lori and Mike. In every step of the process, they were professional, one step ahead, and so kind and easy to work with. They were a huge reason we picked the 1932 barn after touring a half dozen venues. The indoor and outsoor spaces are beautiful, and well suited to a wedding of 100+ guests. If you choose the 1932 barn, you made a great choice!

    Wonderful Venue

    We had the pleasure of photographing a wedding hosted at 1932 Barn in Charlotte, NC, I couldn't have asked for a better experience! The venue's rustic charm and picturesque surroundings provided an ideal setting for capturing unforgettable moments. The staff was exceptionally accommodating and made the entire day run smoothly. The beautifully curated decor added elegance to every shot. I highly recommend 1932 Barn as a dream wedding venue! - Darby Doll Photography

    Fairytale Wedding!

    Absolutely incredible venue! Would 100% choose again if I had to do it all over (but hopefully not, I'll just convince all my friends instead.) Lori and team help with every detail along the way, making planning a wedding yourself very possible and easy, to then managing every second on the wedding day so it's completely seamless, and you actually enjoy the entirety of your day. Also they include decorating that is unique to you and your style, with incredible flexibility for any vision you have. They have truly set up a beautiful place to celebrate love, from the ceremony to the cocktail hour to the reception and dancing. I loved that it was all in one spot, but also all the pictures look completely unique and as if you're not anywhere near people that could be in the background. It's on a farm where you really feel as if you've left the city, but also there are all the amenities of having a fairytale wedding. The 1932 Barn, from the beautiful structure to friendly service, really made my dreams come true. I wish I could give them extra stars!

    The 1932 Barn Exceeded All My Expectations

    If you want to have a barn wedding in Charlotte, this is your sign to do it at The 1932 Barn!! Lori and her team handled the day-of-coordination perfectly. She provided all the planning tools I needed to plan the wedding of my dreams. All of her recommended vendors did an amazing job. All of our guests had such a great time, and Lori was flexible, attentive, and kind the entire time. The design session is so much fun and stress-free. The venue is so naturally gorgeous on its own, and Lori still went above and beyond to make sure the decor was stunning and representative of our vision. If I had to do it all over again, I would choose The 1932 Barn again in a heartbeat.

    Best.Wedding.Venue.Ever

    Lori and her entire team are miracle workers. My husband and I looked at SO many wedding venues online knowing that we would be getting married out of state and as soon as we found 1932 Barn, we knew it was perfect.
    Lori went above and beyond to communicate and make planning the wedding from out of state feel as easy as possible. Our design appointment was incredibly fun and helpful during the process.
    The week of our wedding a hurricane was forecast to hit Charlotte on our wedding day but I knew that we were in good hands with the venue, Lori, and her team. They were one step ahead in making sure everything was going to still be perfect. Thankfully the storm came the day before and we were able to enjoy and celebrate without any rain.
    As a producer/manager, I was looking for a venue that would let me not have to wear that hat for the day and just enjoy and 1932 Barn exceeded my expectations. I would recommend this venue to those who are looking to not have to manage things on the day of your wedding, have it be a one-stop shop for ceremony and reception, have a venue with very impressive vendor connections and have your wedding be in a beautiful location. All of our guests were beyond impressed and in love. My husband and I are forever grateful for having our wedding here. Thank you Lori!!

    1932 Barn was Amazing!!!

    My daughter and son-in-law were married in May 2022 at the 1932 Barn. I can't say enough about Lori and her staff. They were caring and professional and made sure everything was perfect. Everything looked beautiful, and it was truly a magical day for both of them. I'd highly recommend the barn to someone looking for a special venue.

    Best venue around

    Loved 1932 Barn! Our wedding was the best day of my life! Lori won us over from the first moment we met her, the fact that most of the decorations are included was a massive reason we decided to get married here. Leading up to the wedding was organized and easy and the day of was totally stress free and they were so kind and helpful!

    A Beautiful Brunch Wedding

    My Husband and I had decided early on that we wanted to have a morning wedding, with just a few of our close friends and family. The 1932 Barn team was able to deliver us exactly what we wanted: a 35 guest brunch wedding at 10:00 am on a beautiful October morning. Lori, Christina and the rest of the team do an amazing job; they are so communicative, flexible, and willing to do anything to make your day perfect! You will have the most gorgeous wedding if you choose to have your special day here!

    Better than we could have imagined!

    Lori and her team were so supportive and helpful from the moment we booked with them. The day of our wedding was not quite what we had in mind. Lori’s team helped make our day the best it could be. I could not thank them enough for everything they did for us!

    The place and the people were amazing!

    My husband and I got married on October 23rd. The staff was absolutely amazing and so attentive. They made the day go so smoothly, I couldn't have asked for a better day. Lori and Diana were an absolute dream. They were very responsive to my emails and answered all of my questions even before I had them. The day was perfect and I would recommend them to everyone!

    Wonderful experience!

    Lori and her team were incredible! They handled every single detail beautifully. They kept us on time throughout the day and helped to handle any issues that came up - where were practically none. Our guests kept commenting on how beautiful the venue was and how friendly and helpful the staff were. We would 10/10 recommend booking the 1932 barn!

    Everything I could have wanted in a venue!

    If you’re reading this and looking for a wedding venue near Charlotte, I’d suggest you go ahead and book the 1932 Barn NOW! I spent hours researching wedding venues across North Carolina, and ultimately decided on the 1932 Barn for many reasons, any one of which alone would be reason enough to book.

    First off, the venue is beautiful, rustic, and historic, and yet still within a taxi ride of a major city, making it a convenient location for our out-of-town guests, unlike most other barn wedding venues you’ll find which can often be remote and hard to access.

    Second, Lori and her thoughtful team have MASTERED the wedding day-of coordination. They know the in’s and out’s of how to work with the vendors and set everything up, so that the wedding day runs as smoothly as possible. They’ve thought of everything and have back-up plans for whatever could go wrong, and on the wedding day, I felt totally taken care of. Lori and her team went above and beyond to accommodate my wishes as a bride (even when the pandemic derailed our original plans.) They were patient with me, answering my long list of questions.

    Finally, the design consultation is the icing on the cake! They offer a humongous selection of decor for the bride to choose from, everything I could’ve dreamed up to match my aesthetic. Also, it was a total relief to not have to worry about finding and buying all that decor myself, let alone having to set it up and take it down—Lori’s team took care of all of that!

    Go ahead and book! I wish I could do it all over again!

    Beautiful Wedding Venue

    My daughter was married at the 1932 Barn on Sunday, October 18th, 2020. It was a long journey to get to this day....Lori and her team helped to make it everything she imagined. The venue is gorgeous, and made more beautiful by the attention to detail by Lori and her team! So magical! The night was cool, and blankets were thoughtfully available for the guests! What a great touch! We didn't have to worry about a thing; Lori and her team took care of everything, working in concert with our caterer and DJ to ensure a smooth, exciting, night!
    I can't say enough good things about the venue, the décor, and Lori's team! Thank you so much!!

    Daughter's Wedding on 9/14/19

    What a magical day for our daughter's wedding. The staff at the 1932 Barn treated us like family for both the rehearsal dinner and the wedding reception. Can't say enough about Lori and her husband. They were both on top of everything that was going on both days. It was fun to watch the property "come to life" as they decorated the venue from the rehearsal dinner on Friday night to the reception on Saturday. Our guest were very impressed with everything and had a wonderful experience due to the hard work that this team put in to make this such a memorable day. I highly recommend this venue for your special wedding celebration.

    Fantastic Wedding Venue

    The 1932 Barn is amazing. The staff was extremely organized and professional. Each staff member went the extra mile to make our wedding day perfect. Not only did they make the day of the wedding special, Lori made the process leading up to the wedding stress-free. We couldn’t recommend the venue enough to everyone. We are so grateful for each staff members help to ensure our day was perfect.

    Our Reception Venue was best in class!

    My husband and I had another venue picked out, and after looking at everything for a few months, we came to the conclusion that w just could not make it work. I was so anxious and nervous because basically all venues in the Charlotte area were booked for our April 27, 2019 wedding. Lori at the barn was one of the first people I talked to when first shopping for a venue, and I reached out to her after she kept in touch with me for several months. She cleared her day to give me a tour, gave me all information I needed up front, offered different pricing packages, and was so responsive and sweet. She is a true professional and she definitely knows what she is doing. I can be somewhat of a worry wart, and my husband is in the service industry. She and her team demonstrated all the things we wanted and needed. Besides that, the Barn is so affordable for what you get. You receive a whole team to work your day (complete with Lori), decor, tables, chairs, glasses, dishes, sparklers etc. Those things in itself are usually not included and add up fast! If you have an idea in mind, Lori probably has it, or will work to find it. She and her husband are constantly making upgrades to the property. She is also great about noticing the little moments you need a photographer, when your gifts need to be packed, who they go with, etc. The girls who worked my event had to fix my bustle the day of (twice) and were able to do so with a safety pin and super glue! You could tell they have run across any problem you have had and are not afraid to get in there and help. I received the best compliments from our guests, and they said it was one of the best weddings they've been to. It is a huge compliment, and I know we could not have done it without The 1932 Barn and their staff. If you never thought you'd use a barn for your wedding (it wasn't what I originally pictured) please reconsider just to have this venue on your big day.

    The Dreamiest Wedding Venue!

    I had my wedding here in October of 2018. Almost 6 months later and my guests are still raving about it. It was the most dreamy night and everything my husband and I could have hoped for. We highly recommend this venue to everyone searching for a venue in the Charlotte area. Lori and Diana were super easy to communicate with while planning and both took phenomenal care of us on the day of. They totally understood my taste and style and made the night truly reflect mine and my husband's personalities! Thanks for the best night of our lives!!

    Our October Wedding

    We absolutely loved our October wedding at the 1932 barn! The property was gorgeous that day in the fall. Lori and her staff worked closely with us to make sure everything looked exactly how we wanted it. She let us come by and walk the property a week prior to the wedding in order to talk through our vision. Her staff helped to make sure there was a plan in place in case of rain and that all guests were able to stay warm throughout the event. We were impressed by the flexibility of the venue to adapt to our wishes in terms of where the ceremony would be located on the property. The access to a wide variety of décor was a game changer. I was able to pick out exactly what would match my vision for the wedding without having to worry about the price of each individual item. This is an awesome perk that you will not find at other wedding venues! Lori’s excitement and passion were what originally sold us on the venue, but her entire staff’s hard work to make the day a reality was what made the day truly memorable. Her work and coordination with us leading up to the wedding was the reason we felt like we didn’t need a wedding planner. On the day of the wedding, we didn't have to worry about setup or preparation - we simply enjoyed the day. We cannot say enough about how much we enjoyed this venue!

    Lori and her staff at The Barn were absolutely amazing! We had our wedding reception here in November and it ran flawlessly! From the beautiful decor they provided to the set up and the coordination, we couldn't have asked for a better place and team to work with. This was my dream wedding and it wouldn't have been complete without The 1932 Barn!

    I honestly don't even know where to begin! The staff, the venue, the decor, EVERYTHING exceeded our expectations far beyond what we ever would have imagined. Prior to the wedding, the staff was incredibly accommodating and helpful to make sure that we could work together to have everything prepared. They were ON THE BALL the day of our wedding and both my husband and I know it would not have run that smoothly without them. I think one of our groomsmen/family members misplaced the sparklers and before I even knew it had happened, Lori and her staff had found replacement sparklers that were ready to go. We honestly couldn't have asked for better people to help us with our wedding and I hope that we get to work with them in the future just because they're amazing individuals! If you book with Lori, you will not be disappointed and I guarantee you will have the best day of your life. We honestly can't thank them all enough!

    The Lodge and staff are truly incredible! Our wedding was the day Hurricane Matthew hit and although our outdoor wedding quickly changed to an indoor wedding, it was perfect. Everything went extremely well and that is 100% due to the remarkable job of all the staff. Lori & Margo and everyone else at our wedding stayed on top of every detail and it was a true pleasure working with all. And a big thank you to the men working in the wind and rain on the roof to ensure it wouldn't leak. smile emoticon:-) The entire wedding ran smoothly and we couldn't have asked for a more perfect evening. We are grateful we found the 1932 Barn and had the pleasure to work with everyone there. If you are looking for the perfect place to get married- we highly recommend them. You will not be disappointed. Thank you again for making our wedding day so special.

    I photographed a wedding at the 1932 Barn on Hodges in November and I was truly blown away by the staff as well as how beautiful the venue is. As soon as I arrived, Lori found me, introduced herself and her and her daughter were extremely attentive to me through the whole day, ready to help at any opportunity. They were warm, friendly, and a joy to work with. I appreciated how laid back they were in allowing me to get creative with the bride and groom around the property, helping create as much time as possible to shoot with them. They took amazingly intentional care of the bridal party, the bride and groom's family, and the guests. The best part of working with them was how they worked as a family and made the atmosphere inviting and comfortable. Lori and her family truly have a gift and I think the biggest quality that sets them apart is the way that they I saw them serve each and every person they came in contact with during the wedding.

    The property is beautiful from the horses roaming in the pasture behind the barn to the rustic chic bridal suite. Sassifras Design did a phenomenal job with decor because it TRULY felt like the wedding was straight off of a Pinterest board. The table decor was unique and beautiful. They truly captured the bride and groom's personalities in the way the decorated for the wedding!

    I would recommend this venue to any couple looking to work with an attentive and caring venue/planners and hope that I have the pleasure of working with them again soon!

    After searching for potential wedding venues in both southern Virginia and North Carolina, I settled on The Historic 1932 Hodges Barn in Charlotte, NC. From the first phone contact with the coordinator, Lori Diefenbach, I knew I’d found the right place. Lori was warm and helpful from the beginning, she took time to explain her services, and she asked questions to determine just what I hoped to feature at my wedding. After talking with a number of venues where they seemed too busy (or even bothered by my questions), Lori was communicative and patient. She made helpful suggestions and was responsive to all questions in a timely manner. Since this venue allows a bride to choose a caterer of her choice, I was able to save quite a bit of money in comparison to sites which required a hefty minimum charge for an in-house caterer.
    Visiting the Sassifras Design center to choose my décor items (included in the price) was a delight. I had no problem choosing the items I wanted from among hundreds of adorable décor pieces….candle sticks, floral garlands, and items to decorate the gift table, dessert table, or beverage service items….it’s all there! Providing these items saved me a lot of time and money.
    Lori’s ability to decorate the venue and reception tables, provide charming signage, and provide lots of staff were some of my favorite features of using the 1932 Barn. My wedding was November 14th, yet the Barn was comfortably warm. I used the barn’s Annex for the wedding… the inviting benches for guests and the soft afternoon sunlight filtering in created a dreamy and beautiful setting. The Bride’s room featured a lovely and NEW private restroom and a charming seating area. The “sparkler send-off” was so much fun….the fire pit for s’mores…..the delightful country farm ambiance….the photo opportunities….the guests just kept commenting on the enjoyable venue. Lori is a talented and gifted venue coordinator who really comes through!

    I had my wedding at the 1932 barn in May 2015. It was the perfect "Pinterest" wedding. From the very beginning Lori and her staff helped with every detail to make the barn unique to myself and my husbands personalities. I met with her on several occasions to pick out table arrangements, decorations and how I wanted the flow of the day to go. I had no worries the day of because I knew everything was handled with care and professionalism. The bridal suite was the perfect place for myself and my bridesmaids to get ready. I had 6 bridesmaids,myself and 4 flower girls and it was never cramped. The barn was amazing beautiful chandeliers and hanging lights I could not have pictured it any different. I can't thank Lori enough for making our day like a fairytale. If you want a picturesque barn wedding with beautiful sunset views look no further!

    My daughter and her husband chose the 1932 barn for their wedding because this venue had so much to offer. It is beautifully restored with chandeliers and a huge space for tables and dancing. They offer a private bridal room and a private groomsmen's room. This is where we all hung out and got ourselves ready prior to the ceremony. On the left side of the barn is a bar area we set up beverages as well as a game area for our guests to enjoy. On the right is a separate indoor space where we set up the buffet, cake and favors. We can not rave enough about this venue and especially for Lori, Mike and their crew. They did an incredible job; very professional and truly the best at what they do. Lori had worked with my daughter on planning and choosing her decorations and props from their design center and helped create her dream into something phenomenal.
    Our friends and family are still talking about this venue and their wonderful wedding experience.
