    Amazing experience!

    This venue was super amazing to work with! I had my wedding here on March 9th and I couldn’t have dreamed of a better place for my big day! I had so many questions throughout the months and the tram never failed to get back to me and help me with all my details! Love this place and the people who work there!!!

    Mink Wedding

    This venue is a one stop shop!!!! We loved it. We recently had our wedding 2/18 and booked this venue do to the fact they made the process so easy. We decided to go with there catering team and day of coordinator. Best decision we could of made. The day of the wedding the decor was everything we expected and more. The food and the service was incredible our guest was very impressed and taste buds satisfied. Hannah and Carol were a big stress reliever for me on the day of keeping everything on track. Making sure I the bride had everything I needed looked my best at all times, that day was suppose to be a stressful day I thought but those two ladies were on top of everything and made it so I would be able to enjoy my day from start to end.
    I would definitely recommend this venue and all the services it provides

    The Grand 721

    The Grand 721 was the perfect venue to host my husband and I’s recent wedding. The staff was super helpful and nice to work with. The building was very well decorated and the staff really helped me make my vision come true. The catering was absolutely amazing and was so well made. Everyone was raving about the food post wedding. I would highly recommend hosting your event at this venue!

    Amazing venue for your special day

    What an amazing place for your wedding!!! We knew after our meeting with Ashley, this was our venue!! We loved everything about the venue from having an outside ceremony location, and an onsite backup indoor ceremony location just in case, to all of the decor that was included!! Most of all, Ashley was nothing short of amazing! She was responsive, paid attention to details, and made sure our wedding and reception was perfect!! I highly recommend the venue and Ashley for your special day!!

    Our wedding at The Grand 721 was more than perfect! Every detail, every staff member and every moment of our day was picture perfect! I can not thank the staff and our coordinator Regan enough for how everything turned out! We are still in awe of the perfection that was our wedding day! Thank you so much for making our day truly amazing!!!

    Where do I begin

    We booked the grand ol barn sight unseen, when we finally got to see the venue for the first time we knew this was the place to be married, I loved the exposed wooden beams & the chandlers in the reception, I loved the history of the building & I loved the location. Ashley b was incredible the entire process leading up to the day, the entire staff were amazing. Our guest loved the food & service. The bridal suite was beautiful & so easy to get ready in especially if you have more than 5 people in your wedding party. I can’t recommend the grand ol barn enough. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience coming from them. I also cant rave enough about my florals.

    The Grand 721's reply:

    We are so thrilled you had the wedding of your dreams! We loved every second of planning with you from afar. Sending you both so much love!

    Beyond 5 star experience!

    Our wedding was July 8, 2023 and it could not have been more perfect. The venue is beautiful and so many guests commented on not only that, but the ease of attending an event where the ceremony, cocktail hour & reception were in one place.

    The staff, and especially our coordinator Ashley, were courteous, attentive, and brought every detail of our wedding vision to life.

    I was prepared for things to go wrong or run late, and thank to the entire GOB team, I can honestly say that I can’t think of one thing I wasn’t happy with or would have changed.

    One of the first things I said to my husband when we left the event was that if we had to start planning from scratch all over again, I would do everything exactly the same way. I cannot recommend the Grand Ol’ Barn enough.

    And one last note- my dad cannot stop raving about the men’s bathroom. He said it’s the nicest bathroom he’s ever been in hahaha.

    Absolutely 5 stars and beyond!

    Great venue

    I chose this venue because it was all indoors. From the ceremony hall, to the cocktail hour, to the reception hall! I was so thankful for that too because boy or boy did it rain! Also, because I had a June wedding it was also hot outside so it felt nice that my guests somewhere cool to sit while they were waiting for the wedding to start. Also, loved that they had an on-site florist! All the flowers were gorgeous!!!

    Book the Grand Ol' Barn today!

    Deciding to have our wedding at the Grand Ol' Barn was one of the first best decisions we made when wedding planning! We were going for elegant yet comfortable and the space is beautiful, rustic, elegant, and is one-stop shopping with catering and florals all offered in-house! Not to mention their suite of decor that's included--yes decor that's included. Their staff was a dream to work with from start to finish and almost a week after our wedding friends and family are still raving about the amazing time they had celebrating with us at the Grand Ol' Barn.

I never felt like “just another bride” to them. Everything was beautiful and seamlessly executed. I am forever thankful to the entire staff for all their hard work and dedication to the best day of my life.

    The perfect experience!

    We just got married last week and took advantage of the in house catering, florist, and month of coordinating services. Everything was perfect! All of the in house vendors were so easy to work with and very communicative! There are also tons of places for cute photo opportunities including a greenery wall, swings…
    The food was excellent, and the barn had a great set up for tastings. The florist did a wonderful job with the flowers and decor. We reused the flowers from the ceremony for the reception and she did a wonderful job with both! The month of coordinating was extremely helpful. I can’t thank everyone enough for how perfect they made our day turn out!

    Beautiful weddings venue

    Private bridal and groom suites were a great start. Staff answered every need and question. Regan was so humble and helpful. She made the day stress free. The kitchen staff made some delicious food. The tomahawk carving station put out some delicious steaks cooked to perfection. The rest of the food was amazing as well. The whole day was so amazing to be honest. All of our guests said they had wished they could've done something like that where everything was in one place and so nice. 11 out of 10 stars !!

    Just amazing!

    Seriously I can’t get over how magical and perfect my day was ! We loved everything about the barn from the history to the amenities they offer. Chef Lee did amazing with the food, my guest loved the whiskey maple steak tips! Customer service was great, on top of everything! Our day of coordinator Melinda was the best and Bethany her assistant. They both went above and beyond and we could be more appreciative! Thank you all for making our day great and smooth !

    Perfect day + a beautiful venue= dream come true

    My now husband and I got married on Sunday and it was the most beautiful and perfect day ever! The venue is so gorgeous, we got lots of compliments and comments from our guest. The catering was delicious and had excellent service. The florist and bartender were professional and I highly recommend the month of coordinator. Regan helped us planning the small details prior to the wedding and ensuring the guest knew where to go (and of course the bridal party and ourselves too). She was always checking on us to ensure we had everything we needed. At the venue the bridal suite and grooms room to get ready were well stocked with supplies and items you may need the day of or possibly forgot to bring with you. We loved all the signs and included rentals that came with the venue too. We honestly, don't have anything negative to say about the venue, the staff, catering, floral or the month of coordinator at ALL! Wonderful experience and we cannot thank you enough for helping make our day a dream come true!!

    Best day ever seriously

    I can't say enough kind words about all the staff at the barn, everyone helped guide us through all the overwhelming things that go a long with wedding planning. Absolutely stunning venue which made for some beautiful photos that well cherish for a lifetime. The indoor swings that they recently added was a huge hit with our guests, no photo booth necessary! all of our questions were answered in a timely manner and the fact that I didn't have to worry about buying or making a lot of decor was a huge help. I ended doing Diy flowers just because of our own budget but I spoke to Ashley there florist and she was so sweet and still offered to help with the floating candles. The food was delicious, we went with the burger/pulled bbq buffet and left everyone full and satisfied. I've been to weddings previously where the serving sizes were on the small side but chef Lee and his staff accommodated all our requests. I had to change our head count quite a few times and we had 11 kids with a kids table set up! Huge success especially with keeping our 4 year old daughter busy so we could relax.
    And then there is Melinda, there day of coordinator. At first I wasn't going to add the extra expense but I am SO glad I did. She is worth it and I can honestly say that my wedding would have never gone so smoothly without her! She knows what she is doing, and is so genuinely kind and devoted to making sure everything is perfect. I trusted her with making my vision come to life and she succeeded my expectations on every level. She went above and beyond to set everything up for me while we're getting ready and starting photos, she helped make sure we didn't lose track of time and was still able to have all the moments and picture opportunities that were important to us. She even helped me make sure my girls looked great in my dress in the most professional way!! So grateful for this chick and would recommend her to any upcoming brides for a stress free day of! I truly can't say enough about how absolutely perfect our day was, I'm still in shock that it all just went the way I had hoped for!! The location of the barn is also perfect for if you have a lot of family traveling from outside of Florida like we did, we're locals but most of our families came from other states and turned it into a vacation as well with plenty of places to stay beach side only ten minutes from the venue. Shawna was the first person we met when we went to do our tour and was very informative, gave us great vendor recommendations and didn't pressure us into anything she was more so just like the guiding light in the huge world of wedding venues. Everyone at the barn was great to work with and you can tell that they all make a good team so Thank you Thank you Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for everyone that helped our day turn out so perfectly. If you are just starting your own journey into planning your wedding, go check out the barn in person and all that they have to offer you won't be disappointed!
