Ross N. Sent on 12/13/2023Amazing Wedding Venue
The Barn at Stoney Hills is an amazing wedding venue! We could not be happier with our experience. The property is stunning, the house is huge and very comfortable, and the venue is perfect. Having the venue and house for the weekend made a huge difference to us as we had family traveling from all over. We were able to spend so much more time with them being on site for the wedding and reception. Joni was fantastic to work with and made us feel very welcome and comfortable. She is so nice. Highly highly recommend this place for your wedding!The Barn at Stoney Hills's reply:

Elizabeth K. Sent on 12/03/2023The perfect venue
I couldn't recommend this venue more. The owners were so nice to work with and didn't upcharge you for anything. They truly value you and your relationship. My favorite part was you get the whole venue for the entire weekend, including any decorations they have on hand, which is quite a bit. My wedding party and family stayed on site from Friday - Sunday which allowed me to spend more quality time with my family and friends. You also get to bring in all your vendors which saves a lot of money in food and drinks. The location is absolutely gorgeous, allowing for the most perfect photos. There is not a single bad thing to say about this venue. If I had to do it all again, I would pick this venue again in a heartbeat.The Barn at Stoney Hills's reply:
We truly appreciate your kind review Elizabeth! It makes us so happy to hear that you enjoyed your wedding weekend!! A seamless and memorable celebration for both you and your guests is everything that we strive for! Thank you for allowing us to be a part of your special day!!

Beautiful Venue!
Beautiful location! You get the property from Friday to Sunday, which is awesome! So great to have the time for both set-up and take down, as well as a beautiful house on the property to stay at. Owners are incredibly nice and do an amazing job keeping the venue maintained. Venue manager available before and throughout the wedding for questions, as well as to make sure you have what you need! Cannot say enough great things! We are so happy our big day was at The Barn 😊The Barn at Stoney Hills's reply:

unforgettable
This venue was a dream! My husband and I got married in August and it was worth EVERY PENNY. Having a place for your whole bridal party to stay makes your wedding day turn into a stress free wedding weekend! it was so nice to have all our bridal party and close family on the grounds for grooms dinner the night before the wedding. Being able to decorate the night before is so much less stressful. It was the best weekend ever! The staff is so friendly and helpful in setting up all the ceremony seating. HANDS DOWN WOULD RECOMMEND.The Barn at Stoney Hills's reply:
Morgan, you are SO sweet! Thank you ever-so-much for your kind sentiments, we absolutely LOVED hosting your most special and sacred wedding event!! Your beautiful ceremony and wedding reception were -without question- gorgeous and stunning in every way. As beautiful all around as the Bride herself ;)
Wishing the two of you ALL of life's blessings. Thank you again and cheers to forever!

A magical place to have your wedding.
My husband and I got married at the barn in July of 2022. We absolutely loved our experience working with the great crew at the barn.
The staff at the barn were kind, courteous, and timely in their responses. They allowed us to come visit the barn three times prior to our wedding. They also have all the decorations you could possibly need. The decor they have is organized and easy to find what you're looking for. That being said the venue is stunning on it's own and needs little if no decor.
The barn at stoney hills is beyond a wedding venue. It is a destination wedding in a sense. The entire wedding party is able to stay on the grounds Friday-Sunday. We had our rehearsal dinner on site Friday night and enjoyed the fire pits that the venue has to offer. It was truly a magical experience getting to spend the entire day before our wedding with all of our loved ones all staying on the same grounds.
The wedding venue itself it stunning. The grounds are kept immaculate. There was rain on the day of our wedding all morning, so we were up in the air of where our ceremony would take place. The entire crew at stoney hills was beyond gracious working with us to "wait out the rain". We did end up switching ceremony sites from our original plan but let me tell you, it was even better than we could have imagined.
The kitchen in the barn is great for catering services. They have all of the basic equipment. They have huge fridges to place the food in. Which is great seeing as how far out they are from whoever is supplying the food.
Our experience at the barn at stoney hills was magical. We recommend this venue to anyone and everyone. Also they allowed our dog to come on the grounds and partake in the wedding - huge bonus.The Barn at Stoney Hills's reply:
Isabel! Your kind words and sweet sentiments bring tears to my eyes - my goodness, thank you so much and I'm SO happy that your wedding weekend experience with us here at The Barn at Stoney Hills was all that you had hoped for and more. What a heartwarming and blissful weekend for everyone - wedding party and guests alike. It was our absolute honor to serve you, Isabel! Wishing the two of you a lifetime of happiness, joy and all of life's blessings.

Stunning Venue, Professional Staff
The Barn at Stoney Hills was absolutely perfect for our wedding! It was a stunning venue that created a loving, family-oriented environment for our wedding weekend. The venue owners and venue director were absolutely lovely to work with and went above and beyond to make wedding planning, our wedding weekend, and the cleanup after the wedding go smoothly. On the wedding day, they handled weather changes with ease and compassion, and were prepared for it all. I would highly recommend this venue!!The Barn at Stoney Hills's reply:
Oh Emily - you are SO kind! Thank you for your thoughtful words, I'm overcome with humbled joy. What an honor it was to host your gorgeous wedding event, again, your entire group - all weekend long - was an absolute joy! I'm so grateful that you chose US - The Barn at Stoney Hills.

Mckenna K. Sent on 07/27/2022Beautiful and perfect!
I loved every part of this venue! From the 3 day weekend package to the all inclusive no fees hidden philosophy they hold! Weddings always go so fast, and the 3 day weekend helped us to slow down and soak in our wedding more! We also loved all of the amenities this venue offered. The golf carts, tables, chairs, linens, etc. it was a huge money saver for us with a large wedding! It’s a great venue run by the most amazing people!The Barn at Stoney Hills's reply:
McKenna - thank you so much for your sweet sentiments! Your wedding weekend was nothing short of fabulous!! From the absolute beautiful weather (Minnesota delivered her very best for your special day, no doubt!) to the love and laughter shared among family and friends - what a blessed wedding weekend!
Wishing the two of you all of life's happiness!

Amazing Venue & Staff - Full Weekend Wedding
I have nothing but the best things to say about our experience working with the Barn at Stoney Hills for our May wedding. It was an absolute dream - the Hamsons and all the staff bent over backwards to give us the most perfect weekend.
One of the best parts of this venue is the full weekend offering. We arrived Friday to set up which I was SO thankful for! I had a few friends help and we got to relax the entire rest of the day, host rehearsal and grooms dinner on-site, and had so much more time to relax the next morning without scrambling before the ceremony. Our favorite memory of the whole weekend was being able to spend quality time with our family and friends for longer than you get to at a lot of normal venue locations. It was incredibly special.
I used quite a bit of the decor provided by the venue and didn't need to rent or buy much of anything. They provide so many pictures, layouts and checklists ahead of time, and offer enough beds for about 25 people to stay onsite (party & S/Os, family, etc). We hired a day-of coordinator, but honestly with all that Joni and their venue coordinator who is there day-of helped me coordinate ahead of time, she said she got bored!
There are three different outdoor spots for your ceremony - we decided to do our ceremony right outside the Barn and it was beautiful. All of our vendors and guests said it was one of the most beautiful, easy to work with venues and we could not agree more.
Additionally, there are a decent number of hotels, motels, resorts and airbnbs nearby (closest is about 20 minutes) and our guests were all able to find places that worked best for them.
Outside of all of this, I wish I could describe in words how kind, thoughtful and generous Joni and Randy are. You can tell how passionate they are about making your weekend a dream. My husband and I would recommend The Barn to anyone and everyone and I hope to visit again SOON for another wedding!!The Barn at Stoney Hills's reply:
Ava! You make me cry! And paired with these FABULOUS photos - ahh! - I almost can't even handle it! Trying to respond to your sweet words without having a tissue in hand - well. forget about it! ;')
Thank you.
We are sincerely touched that you had such a wonderful and memorable wedding celebration and experience. I can't wait to see where life takes the two of be sure to stay in touch!!
Wishing you all of life's blessings,

Anna C. Sent on 12/19/2022May Wedding at The Barn at Stoney Hills
My husband and I stumbled upon The Barn at Stoney Hills from a google search for weekend-long wedding venue rentals and we're so glad we did! Our May 2022 wedding turned out exactly as we envisioned with all of our closet friends and family being able to spend the entire weekend together at the venue with us and all our friends and relatives coming on Saturday to celebrate our wedding with us. What really makes The Barn at Stoney Hills stand out is all the thought and detail they've put into the venue and all of the equipment and decor that is included with the rental. They have so much awesome decor that is yours to use!! I loved being able to come up Friday morning and set everything up with the help of my family and friends and being able to have the rehearsal dinner right on site followed by yard games and a campfire with smores. The owners are so friendly, helpful and accommodating, Joni even ran out Friday night before our wedding to get the cord we needed to hook our laptop up to the TVs for our slideshow! We loved having the whole property to ourselves for the weekend and being able to set it up just how we wanted. It is a spectacular place for our wedding and we're so glad we chose to get married at The Barn at Stoney Hills!The Barn at Stoney Hills's reply:
Oh Anna - your sweet and thoughtful words are so charming and sincerely adored. Thank you SO much for choosing us! To say that your wedding weekend was anything short of a dream is just, simply put, an understatement! It was our honor to serve host marking the beginning of all of your tomorrows as Husband and Wife.
Cheers to the two of you and sending our absolute very best!
Blessings,

The Barn at Stony Hills is Amazing!!!
We were so fortunate to be able to book a weekend at the barn for our son’s wedding. This venue exceeded our expectations in all aspects. I do not know of any other place around like this. We moved in on Friday and held the rehearsal dinner on site. Great grilling station right outside the back door of the barn. The wedding party stayed at the farmhouse and did not have the expense of a hotel. The fall colors at the farm were stunning and the staff had been covering flowers to prevent them from freezing. The photographer was able to get amazing outdoor pictures. The farmhouse and barn are in mint condition and everything is extremely clean. However the best comments are for the owners Randy and Joni and the venue manager Staci. They are the sweetest people and they truly care about their guests. They were very thorough in making us feel at home for the weekend and attending to our every need. Anything we wanted or needed, they were right on it. For example when we thought we were running out of beverage cups, Staci drove to the nearest town and got cups and did not let us pay for them. They also helped with our technology needs. They have beautiful linens and decorations that are included in the weekend package . I highly recommend this best kept secret in central Minnesota. Thank you Randy, Joni and Staci. -

Fairytale Venue
We can’t say enough about this venue, Joni and her staff! Our wedding was perfect and couldn’t have imagined it any other way. The staff is there all weekend to help with anything that arises and being on site Friday through Sunday was such a blessing.The Barn at Stoney Hills's reply:

Crystal Sent on 12/22/2021Stunningly perfect
I can’t say enough good things about this venue, we we’re allowed to set-up, rehearse, and host our rehearsal dinner on site the day before. There are atleast 3 ceremony spaces to choose from and more to accommodate bad weather, each with its own arch and scenic views of the landscapes so you'll get amazing photos without having to leave the property. Chairs are provided for the ceremony and chairs, tables, and linens are provided for the reception spaces. They do have some decor you can utilize aswell. One of my favorite parts being a cosmetologist was the included separate bridal and groom suites, with salon chairs and mirrors for all of your bridemaids. It makes the getting ready process so much easier and is beautiful for pics. The option to choose all your own vendors within your budget (including catering), but also the knowledge from the barns crew on who they have worked with in the past that they recommend is so useful. The barn is just absolutely the most beautiful venue I’ve ever been too and we couldn’t get enough good word from all our guests . They still talk about how stunning it is months later. Our experience with the staff was perfect they make the whole wedding planning process so much easier and are willing to help in any way they can. We can’t thank Joni, randy, and cheyanne enough for making our day so perfect!The Barn at Stoney Hills's reply:
Crystal, your kind words bring tears. We are so humbled and HAPPY (we're **REALLY** THRILLED) that you had such a pristine experience and adored the Venue/property for all it has to offer! Your day was nothing short of *AMAZING* and you were absolutely the poised-picture of what every Bride dreams she'll be on her most anticipated wedding day. Picturesque!
Wishing you and your beautiful family many blessed and joyful years ahead, cheers!
