    The most perfect day! 3.14.24

    We got married at the Barn on 3.14.24 and it was truly the best day ever! Everything was perfect. Our guests raved about how beautiful the barn and decor was. The day would not have come together so beautifully without the help of the coordinators, Theresa and Hector, and the staff! They made sure everything ran smoothly. I will forever recommend The Barn at Crescent Lake for future couples!

    Amazing & stunning!

    We just had our wedding yesterday and I can’t say enough how amazing it was. We only had 6 months to plan and the wedding planner and coordinator were so helpful in making sure everything got done with ease. Me and my now husband never felt stressed during the planning and the day of everything looked beautiful and Hector was there with us all day helping with everything we needed and more. Our family and friends had a blast and also said the wedding was the best they’ve ever been to. Thank you soooo much to Theresa, Hector, and everyone that helped make our day so special.

    12/8/2023 - Wedding

    We just got married here and I can’t recommend it enough. Great location, beautiful outdoors on the lake and inside the Barn was open with floor to ceiling windows overlooking the lake. There is plenty of parking. It was our dream venue and knew after the first visit this was it! So thankful for Theresa the wedding coordinator she is so friendly and was so helpful throughout the planning process. Hector our day of coordinator was exceptional. He managed our family and friends during the rehearsal so everyone knew their part and where we were going for a seamless ceremony. I came with all of our special touches for the wedding and walked him through all the details. He ensured nothing was missed. He even made sure we stopped and ate. Theresa and Hector were so responsive prior to and even after our wedding. We would recommend this venue to host any event thanks to Theresa and Hector.

    Exceeded all expectations

    We got married at the barn on 3/25/23. It was the most magical day of our lives, thanks entirely to the care and support provided to us by our coordinators Hector and Justine. They made every minor (inevitable) hiccup manageable, they catered to the groom and I way more than we expected and with all the trust and autonomy we gave them on the finishing details, we were beyond elated with the outcome. Justine communicated With me at every turn, replied to texts at all times of day and night for over a year and never made me feel overwhelming or annoying with my questions. If we had it to do all over again, we’d have picked the same place and done it exactly the same all over again. So many thanks to their team for making the best day of our lives so easy and stress free.

    Unbelievably beautiful.

    My Husband and I just got married here this past Saturday- I don’t think I have enough words to describe the beauty this place truly holds. Justine & Hector were so unbelievably accommodating, supportive and kind throughout this whole journey. They all really made us feel as if the Venue was made just for our day. They really went to bat when it came down to weather and even went the extra mile to set up both outside and inside just to make sure we had the most perfect day no matter rain or shine.
    I can’t recommend this Venue enough- especially if you’re looking for somewhere that offers in house decor/signage/furniture/DJ/florist/cake/catering the options are endless! They really do everything they can to perfect the details big and small. We are so beyond grateful 🤍

    Amazing!!!

    All I can say is I’m so thankful for all the staff that helped make our dream wedding come alive! Justine and hector made me crack up the whole day and night when I was nervous they made sure I was taken care of the DJ Keith was also the best! I would definitely suggest having your wedding at the barn at crescent lake! They really take the time for your special day to be perfect!

    Highly recommend!

    I had my ceremony and reception at this venue and it made for a beautiful wedding day. Justine was so kind and responsive to my many, many emails as I worked on planning for the wedding. As to be expected in the stressful wedding planning process there was a hiccup with the caterer a couple weeks before the wedding but Justine and my wedding planner, Erika O'Brien Events (also highly recommend!), came to me with a solution for the problem and it was resolved smoothly with me being minimally involved. The day of the wedding went so well and I was able to focus on enjoying the day with my husband! This is a great all-inclusive option (does not include photography and hair & make up) which helps to make the planning and coordinating simpler as the vendors have already worked with each other and are familiar with how weddings at this venue go.

    Dream Wedding

    The Barn at Crescent Lake was the first venue we toured and knew we had to book immediately. Not only was the venue stunning, but the staff made planning our wedding a breeze. Everyone was so kind and willing to answer any questions we had promptly. I won’t ever stop bragging on BACL and would recommend to any engaged couple looking for the perfect venue!!! Special shout-out to Justine and Hector for making our day so special!

    November 2022 Wedding

    We had our wedding at the Barn this November and it was incredible! The team was so great in helping us build our dream wedding. The venue is amazing and perfect for photos. We couldn’t be happier with how everything turned out!

    The Perfect Brunch Wedding!

    Our brunch wedding was perfect! We had such a great experience and everyone was extremely helpful and kind. Worked with Justine up until the wedding and then Hector as well for the day of. Everything went out without a hitch and they truly exceeded all expectations and took the pressure off of me. The only thing I would remark on that would have made the experience better would be expectations, 4 days before the wedding I was told the contingency plan for rain (which was likely) was not what I was told it would be when we booked the venue and also that there would be kids there on field trips and birthday party's. This was upsetting as it was never previously mentioned until the week of the wedding. Everything did end up working out so I don't have any complaints just thought other brunch wedding people might want to know these details in case you are thinking of booking as well!

    Highly recommend this Venue!

    When I first saw and booked the barn there was a different day of coordinator working there, about a couple months after booking the venue I got the email regarding the change. At first I was nervous that things would change for the worse, but the exact opposite happened. Ever since Justine took over she has made multiple changes in appearance and extra add ons. I Love the flower wall in the barn it made for an amazing back drop for guests to take pictures! Justine even let us girls get into the cabin early to do hair and makeup on site which was a huge relief! The ceremony space is breath taking and even with the little rain we had my day turned out wonderful! I want to make another shout out to Hector, he was also a huge part in making my day go smoothing. Thank you to everyone at the barn at crescent lake!

    Beautiful venue and amazing staff!

    The whole experience was super easy. I loved having a list of venders to choose from as well as many amazing decorations to use at my disposal. The staff was attentive, and communication was clear and easy. Truly made my day special having the farm tour during our cocktail hour; it was a huge hit with our guests.

    Best Day Ever

    Highly recommend the Barn at Crescent Lake. They provide you with recommended vendors which made wedding planning so much easier. Justine was great to work with! She was organized and responsive throughout wedding planning. She got back to me right away whenever I had questions. I received so many compliments about how beautiful the venue was. The decor was absolutely gorgeous! Thank you Justine and Hector for all your hard work. We had the best day!

    Wonderful Experience

    Highly recommend!! The entire experience was just wonderful. From the planning process to the actual wedding Justine and Hector definitely made sure everything went smoothly. My daughter and son in law were blown away at how beautifully everything came out. We really couldn't have asked for more. Thank you so much!!!

    Loved our wedding day!

    We are over the moon happy with our decision to have our wedding at the barn at crescent lake! They help you organize yourself throughout the planning process to keep you on track, they have so many wonderful decorations on site to help your vision come to life! It was just the perfect venue for my husband and I! There was the lake in the background while still giving the relaxed barn atmosphere. And yes it’s air conditioned another big plus! Something I noted as impressive is they actually had a rain contingency plan of where to move my ceremony- which with Florida’s weather is necessary! Just all around I highly recommend, they made my wedding day stress free and magical!

    Exceeded our expectations!!

    We found this venue by luck, my mother in law found it for us actually :) When we got there I was taken aback by how gorgeous the place is! The big oak trees and all the Spanish moss had me in love!! The staff were so amazing! They took my Pinterest board and made my dream wedding come to light, even buying dried wildflowers and lavender for me!! They treated us like royalty on the day of. The bridal cabin is sooo pretty and we all had soo much fun getting ready with mimosas and playing with the cows!!
    Our first look was at the old boat house and it was PERFECT for it!! I cannot wait to get those pictures!!
    I am not the type that lets people wait on her hand and foot but the staff definitely did their best to keep me from doing anything for myself!! They give rides back to the bridal cabin if you need it and everything!! We did not expect them to hand us drinks immediately after the ceremony if we wanted, or make our plates of food FOR US and serve us at the sweetheart table!! I felt like a literal princess and will always recommend the barn for anyone looking for an easy, sweet outdoor wedding

    Amazing wedding venue!

    This wedding venue is amazing and gorgeous! We received so many compliments on our wedding and many people said it’s the best wedding they’ve been to. The coordinators made sure the day ran smoothly and made sure everything was set up beautifully.

    I do want to say that we had 4 different wedding coordinators through the venue from the time we booked it to the day of the wedding. We were never really told about this either. Each time, it was a surprise. Luckily, they keep everything in a file and are always on top of everything so this didn’t affect us too much. I did, however, provide a diagram of the seating chart and that was not followed so my poor grandparents and mom were basically in a corner but in the grand scheme of things, that didn’t matter at all. We still had an amazing day. I only mention this if you are a bride that’s a little pickier than I am. One other thing is that the centerpieces I put together with the first wedding coordinator were not what was put on the table. HOWEVER, I loved the centerpieces they did make and thought they were better than what I picked out. So you can absolutely trust this venue to make your wedding beautiful.

    Overall, I’d recommend to all my family and friends! It was worth being pretty much stress free because they take care of so much stuff for you! :)

    The Barn at Crescent Lake's reply:

    Thank you Amber!!!! Congratulations and thank you for the kind words, we enjoyed being apart of your very special day!

    All around a great experience.

    We had the pleasure of dealing with the professional staff at the barn at crescent lake who made us feel very special on our wedding day. The event coordinators made sure everything ran smoothly and was well thought out. Between the updated venue and beautiful views that the property provided it was an all around great experience. I would recommend the barn at crescent lake to any of my friends and family.

    Perfect wedding venue!

    I feel incredibly blessed to have had the opportunity to have our wedding at The Barn at Crescent Lake. From the very first time that we toured the venue we fell in love with the beautiful scenery, and the wonderful and accommodating staff that helped us plan along the entire way. The coordinators were great to work with and were very flexible and helping ensure that we had everything that we dreamed of for our special day. It was so easy to communicate with the coordinator and ensure everything was lined up the way we wanted it on our wedding day. I was able to focus on getting myself and my bridal party ready on our wedding day and I was truly able to enjoy the entire experience, rather than worrying about all the details, I knew the coordinator and staff had it taken care of. I can’t say enough great things about all of the staff at The Barn at Crescent Lake, and really appreciate all that they did to ensure that our big day was perfect. My husband and I are so thankful to their entire team and would recommend anyone to get married at this absolutely gorgeous venue, you won’t be disappointed! Many many guests commented that it was the best wedding they had been to, and some said they wished they had gotten married there :-) Thank you to the entire team, a special “thank you” to Tina for making the day perfect. You’re amazing!

    Great Venue

    The wedding coordinator, Lisa, and her crew were amazing! If anyone had communication problems recently, the other girl in charge unfortunately had to take a leave because of her pregnancy.. yes we stressed but they have it under control and worked out perfect snd smoothly! They know what they are doing!
    Highly recommended!!
