That’s a dream wedding destination!
I can’t say how happy we are with choosing Darren and his team to host our wedding. Everyone complemented the food, the overall idea of the place. The wood beams give the best character to the place, everything its original and simply beautiful.
The first time I saw the venue I truly felt in love and instantly knew that this is where I want my friends and family celebrate with.
My photographer was so impressed and had so many ideas for our beautiful photos.
Staff was so nice and friendly, very sweet team of people.
Thank you again for fulfilling my dream.

10th Wedding Anniversary Surprise
My husband worked with Darren and Chris to surprise me for our 10th wedding anniversary at — our wedding venue! 🤍
We walked in to our wedding song playing, shared our first dance all over again, and toasted with champagne. Darren and Chris were so incredibly accommodating and made the entire experience feel so special. Darren even gave us the full tour again!
Getting to come back and celebrate where our story began was something I’ll never forget. If you were married here, coming back for your anniversary is an absolute must! ✨ -

The best day of our lives at The Loft at Jack’s Barn!
We had our wedding at The Loft at Jack’s Barn, and it was absolutely magical from start to finish. The space is breathtaking — rustic yet elegant — and the atmosphere felt so intimate and full of character. Every single detail, from the string lights to the barn doors and floral setup, created the most romantic backdrop for our day.
The entire team — Darren, Chris, Demi, and Casey — went above and beyond to make sure everything ran perfectly. They were attentive, professional, and genuinely kind. Our guests couldn’t stop talking about how beautiful the venue was and how smoothly everything went.
We couldn’t have asked for a better place to celebrate our wedding. It truly was the best day of our lives, and we’ll forever be grateful to everyone at Jack’s Barn for making it so special.
Highly, highly recommend this venue to any couple looking for a wedding that feels both timeless and unforgettable. 💍✨-

Your Very Own Hallmark Movie Wedding
Wow, oh wow…this venue was just perfection.
Let me start by saying that when my daughter introduced the idea of a barn venue, I was less than thrilled. I just didn’t think a barn would be, shall we say, “glamorous” enough for the wedding of my only daughter. I could not have been more wrong.
The staff: This is a family-run business, and it shows. The personal service you receive from the owners is second to none. They walk you through every step and are available to answer all of your questions. Not only that, Darren, the owner, is there for the ENTIRE day, supervising set up, answering questions, and acting as your “day of planner”. He made the day run seamlessly while never getting you hyped up or worried. No one was left waiting around. Our guests could not get over the relaxed, smooth flow of the entire day. The wait staff was so organized, competent, and caring. They anticipated my every move and checked in with me to make sure all was running to my expectations. I am so grateful for that.
The space: This space was completely transformed into something out of a Hallmark movie. The recommended florist (Karla’s Garden Studio) was simply amazing. She was there for hours with her staff, putting together our specified vision, and worked with the staff at Jack’s to incorporate all of the little extras we brought with us.
The suites: If the barn itself didn’t sell the venue, the bridal suite sure did! SPECTACULAR! So spacious and practical, yet it was decorated like a perfect Victorian dollhouse room. The groom’s suite is beautiful as well. We were so comfortable and felt very much at home.
The food: The food was the best wedding dinner I’ve had, and this is coming from a very picky Italian woman lol. The desserts were so, so good…and honestly very unique. I love the idea of selections such as peach cobbler!
The bar: Incredible selections, friendly service, and people were not left waiting around.
Outside vendors to consider: Jack’s Barn recommended a couple of vendors for a special touch. One was the chalk artist, who transformed the large chalkboard into a personalized piece of art. I was blown away by this. The other was the cannoli and coffee cart. I wasn’t sure I needed this…but I am so, so glad we decided to hire them. They set up an unbelievable coffee cart for the entire day and then served homemade cannolis. The carts offered an old-world vibe that was perfect in the barn’s space.
The bottom line: You can have great food, a smooth day, and a beautiful venue…but there is that quality about a wedding that can’t be named. It comes from a genuine vibe that cannot be bought. Jack’s Barn provided that mystical quality. I am beyond happy, and again, I am an extremely picky person. Our guests were so impressed with it and commented on how refreshing it was to have something that was so unique. Thank you to Darren, Chris, Demi, and the entire staff.

A Dream Wedding Venue – Perfect in Every Way!
We celebrated our wedding last year October 2023, and I can’t express how perfect everything was! The barn setting added a rustic charm, giving our day such a warm and intimate feel. The natural beauty of the venue exceeded all of our expectations—it was everything we had ever hoped for!
The staff were nothing short of incredible. From the moment we arrived, they were attentive, and caring, and went above and beyond to ensure every detail was taken care of. Their professionalism and genuine kindness made our day feel so special.
As for the food, it was simply amazing. Each dish was thoughtfully prepared and delicious, leaving our guests raving about the meal long after the event was over. It was clear that a lot of care went into every aspect of the catering, and we couldn’t have been happier.
If you’re looking for a beautiful venue with outstanding service, Jack's Barn is absolutely the place to celebrate your big day. We’ll always cherish our time there!-

Bridal shower
We had a great overall experience here planning a bridal shower. Darren and Demi were both very nice, responsive and helpful. The venue was the perfect size for the shower and the food was great! We had rain on the day which sadly meant we couldn’t enjoy the beautiful outside garden but there was more than enough room inside for all who attended. -

Twenty Belvidere | The Loft At Jack's Barn
Our group stayed at Twenty Belvidere and had a once of a lifetime unique experience. We couldn't have asked for more between the beautifully decorated spaces to the clean and comfortable accommodations. We had a wonderful dinner in the formal dining room overlooking Belvidere, followed by good times and drinks in each of the sitting rooms after. The service, directions and responsiveness of the team is a 10/10. -

Such a gorgeous place to get married!
Jacks was on my top 3 when my now husband and I started looking for venues and we are so incredibly happy we went with them! Darren and his team are seriously the best, my day went so well and smooth! Everyone and I mean everyone couldn’t stop saying great things about the grounds and the food. We can’t thank jacks enough for making our day exceptional! -

Have your special day here, you will NOT regret it!
Where do I even begin??? I just have to say that my hubby and I are so, so lucky to have stumbled upon Jack's Barn. We had no idea it was even wedding venue, but saw it on one of our random drives and thought at first that it was a cute restaurant. And to our surprise upon looking up the place, it was actually a wedding venue! We had just started planning our wedding at the time, and we thought it was just such perfect timing that we decided to get in touch with the owner (Darren) and book a tour. Our first time seeing Jack's in person and meeting Darren, we knew we had to have our wedding here. We didn't tour any other venues. We booked our date then and there. And our wedding was PERFECT. The venue is beautiful, it's very warm and cozy and rustic, and it was just so us. Darren, Demi, Chris, and Gretchen are all so on top of everything, they really helped to keep me on the right track and stay as organized as possible. Demi is so communicative, and whenever I had a concern about something, I would send her an email and I would get a response within an hour. The way they made sure everything came together nicely really eased a lot of the anxiety over planning a wedding. Chris was also our officiant, and he did such an amazing job! He kept it light and sweet and funny! And last but not least, our guests RAVED about the food. We ate when we could, but our guests said everything was delicious! The stuffed chicken is mouth-watering, and the portions are massive, I also tried a bit of my husband's beef short ribs, also so good! You will not leave hungry. Overall, 5-star treatment, 5-star experience, I would do it all over again!!! -

Rustic Ambiance, Relaxing Atmosphere and Delicious Catering
Rustic Ambiance, Relaxing Atmosphere and Delicious Catering are just three ways I can describe my wedding day experience at Jacks Barn. The owners were helpful and easy to work with. The setting has ample space for guests, bridal and grooms party. Food delivered promptly, desserts were raved about and wedding day schedule went as planned. -

You will fall in love!!
We recently had the pleasure of hosting our wedding at The Loft at Jack's Barn, and it was everything my husband and I could have imagined. From the moment we discovered this hidden gem in the countryside of Oxford, NJ, we knew it was the perfect venue for our intimate celebration.
One of the first things that struck us about The Loft at Jack's Barn was the reasonable cost. So many other venues we looked at were absurdly expensive, making it difficult to find a place that fit within our budget. But Jack's Barn offered a fantastic value that didn't compromise on quality or charm.
Darren and Demi, the owners of Jack's Barn, made the entire planning process a breeze. As an overwhelmed bride, I cannot express how reassuring and stress-free they made everything feel. They were attentive and accommodating, ensuring that every little detail was taken care of. Their expertise and guidance truly made a difference.
Now, let's talk about the food. It was absolutely phenomenal! The flavors, presentation, and quality of the dishes were beyond our expectations. We weren't the only ones who thought so either. We received multiple texts from guests days after the wedding, expressing how much they loved the food. It's always a testament to a great venue when your guests can't stop raving about the cuisine.
As for the venue itself, it was nothing short of enchanting. The Loft at Jack's Barn exudes charm and intimacy. The rustic yet elegant surroundings created a magical atmosphere that perfectly complemented our special day. The attention to detail in the decor and layout added an extra touch of beauty.
We can confidently say that our wedding at The Loft at Jack's Barn was one of the most memorable experiences of our lives. From the affordability to the outstanding service, this venue exceeded our expectations in every way. If you're looking for a charming, intimate, and beautiful venue for your special day, we highly recommend choosing The Loft at Jack's Barn. You won't be disappointed.

Couldn’t have asked for a better venue than Jack’s Barn
We could not be happier with our wedding venue choice! Jack’s Barn gave us such a beautiful, memorable experience, the day of and leading up to the wedding. Before we even signed the contract, Darren made us feel like we would truly be taken care of by their staff, like they exactly how to run a beautiful wedding and that I didn’t need to worry as much as I usually do or had been already! Their whole vibe was what really drew us in to choose them, aside from also the beautiful chandeliers and circus lights… Jacks is “DIY” but they have so much cool stuff you can use; we only bought a few things to add personal touches and flowers/greenery as far as decor. The venue is truly beautiful on its own and all of our guests kept saying the same thing. This won’t be just another banquet hall reception! The food was also so good (dill salmon 10/10) and you get to pick choices for your guests. We also did an open bar through Jacks which was reasonably priced and just customizable enough. Also ask about 20 Belvidere if you want somewhere to stay that weekend - such a great property and made for a really beautiful and charming rehearsal dinner. All the staff leading up and day of were amazing - Darren, Chris, Demi, and Casey know what’s up and we can’t recommend them enough. -

Happily Ever After!
This past October my partner and I had our wedding at Jack’s Barn, and what an incredible wedding and experience it was! We booked the venue about a year and a half prior, and throughout the time period in between we felt the communication was consistent, professional, and very prompt! Darren, Demi, and the rest of the team were great to work with and we felt very well taken care of and supported day of! Our family even made note that the staff was warm and attentive. The venue is so lovely and well taken care of, and we received many a compliment from our guests. The catering was also well received and had so many great options to choose from! (Do note that tastings are not offered.) Catering was quite good, as well as the desserts provided as part of the package! After our wedding day, we booked their manor house, Twenty Belvidere, to stay in that evening with our wedding party and were so impressed! The house is stunning and made for a memorable way to cap off our day. Highly recommended, all around! -

Beautiful venue!
Me and my husband got married here earlier this month and our experience was a dream. I would recommend Jacks barn to everyone! Darren and the staff were nothing short of professional, caring, and attentive for our day. I can not put into words how incredible the cocktail hour seated dinner and dessert stations were.. we still have family and friends raving about it. We dreamt of this day for almost 2 years and the entire staff delivered excellence! Every single person working there helped make it perfect. We are so grateful for you all!-

Great wedding
I’ve been in the wedding business for close to 45 years. I’ve booked and/or serviced probably close to 5,000 weddings, so I speak from an experienced point of view.
My daughter wanted to get married in a barn, and she and her husband fell in love with The Loft at Jack’s Barn.
Summary:
Dressing rooms are Rey nicely done
Great grounds, beautiful gardens
Darren and Demi are great to work with
Location is very unique and well laid out from both a decorative and a logistical standpoint
Service was spot on
Food was excellent - especially the hors d’oeuvres. All freshly made, all outstanding. Great desserts, too.
Nice touch - beautiful sunny day for the ceremony outside, and they handed out parasols to all the women as they went to sit down.
All in all, a great day. -

The Best Decision You Can Make
Jack's Barn is a dream venue. Darren and Demi make everything so fun and stress free. This was the only venue we toured and we booked right away because it just felt so natural and comfortable as soon as we walked inside. The space is gorgeous with beautiful lights and the most charming, cozy decor that my guests adored. They have so many decorations and items for couples to borrow to make their weddings look amazing. Demi was there every time I had to change details and was always there to give a recommendation, help pull off ideas, and just make the experience more calm and fun for both of us. They coordinated our ceremony, vendors, and the whole reception to a T. My guests said the food was the best wedding food they've ever had, and seeing everyone enjoy was a highlight of our night. Darren and Demi are sop personable and willing to help their couples out, and there are so many options for different budgets. If you are interested in Jack's Barn but on the fence, I say don't hesitate. You will literally have no regrets. -

Best day of our lives!
From the moment my (now husband) and I walked into Jack’s barn, we were treated like family. I think it has a lot to do with the face that it’s run by the sweetest family ever! Darren, Chris, and Demi, along with the entire staff, absolutely blew us away. They guided us through the whole planning process and helped us find vendors that would be perfect for us. They were also super accommodating when it came to special requests and vendors that were new to Jacks. I had a very specific vision for my day and even though it poured rain, I couldn’t have asked for a better day. The getting ready space was stunning. It felt so dreamy to get ready up there. I had my four bridesmaids, and all the moms and grandma and there was plenty of room. The makeup artists loved it too because of the great set up. The food was incredible. We chose their bbq option and everyone loved it! The cocktail hour food was delicious too! The staff made sure that we had plenty of food and that we weren’t stressing ourselves out about anything. We were able to really let go and actually have fun with our people! Everyone said that the day felt so intimate, cozy, and so much fun! I was told it was one of the best weddings they’d been to by many people which is so cool to hear and is thanks to Jacks! I couldn’t believe how quickly the day went by but when it did, the staff took care of everything and I barely had to lift a finger Al day. The Jacks Barn Family has officially become part of ours and we can’t wait to go to another wedding there sometime soon!-

Absolutely Loved Jack’s Barn!
We got married at Jack’s Barn in November 2021. From our first visit at Jack’s Barn, we fell in love with the venue and knew that it was for us. They have a very unique and eclectic space, unlike any other venue!
In addition to their beautiful location, the owner and his daughter are very accommodating, kind, and always available via text and email to answer your questions. They make you feel like your wedding is their one and only, and this is unlike the feeling you would experience at a large banquet hall. They are truly passionate about their business and it’s beauty, which shines through in their conversations with you.
Because the venue is so great in itself, you do not need to spend a lot on decor. Additionally, Jack’s Barn has a whole bunch of free options available for your selection (lanterns, table numbers, votives etc). Outside of floral, I only used items that were available through the venue and my tables were so pretty!
The on-site suites are beautiful, rustic, and are a great space for the bridal parties to get ready.
The venue space is a little tight, so just keep in mind they have a 125 max. We had 105, which I think was a very comfortable number for the space. We also had a 7 piece band which worked out perfectly.
Lastly, the food was great on the night of the wedding, and we heard overall great reviews from all our guests. We would highly recommend this venue to anyone who is looking for a barn wedding. -

Best Glamorous Barn Venue
From our first visit to the Loft we knew we found our wedding Venue. Darren, Chris and Demi were beyond incredible to work with. They took the time to get to know us and make recommendations to help guide us throughout the wedding planning process. We loved the flexibility the venue afforded. My husband and I really love fine wines and one of the selling points was that we were able to curate a very nice wine and cocktail list. The team at the Loft at Jack's Barn made our wedding day vision come together perfectly. All of our guests loved the comfortable venue and have been raving about it for weeks. We can't say enough about our experience. We highly recommend The Loft at Jack's Barn, we loved it so much we are trying to think of a reason to have another party there!! -

A Beautiful, Unique Wedding Venue
My husband and I got married at Jack’s on July 18th, 2021 after postponing during the pandemic. Jack’s was the only venue we visited because we were blown away by both the physical location and the hospitality and professionalism of Darren and Demi. The barn is a work of art that only gets better with each new touch that Darren and his family add. The grounds, bridal suite, groomsmen suite, and barn itself are all incredible. All of our guests commented on what a beautiful location we had chosen for our wedding. We loved that there was a TON of decor such as votives, seating charts, and card boxes that we could borrow from the barn to minimize our other expenses. Our only consideration for future couples is that Jacks is a DIY venue which requires a little bit of set up and planning. However it is SO worth it. With that extra time and effort, we were able to completely customize our vision and have a perfect day. Darren, Chris, Demi, and Casey were wonderful in assisting with the entire process and we highly recommend their venue to couples looking to have a beautiful, unique day. In addition to their services, we took into consideration their recommendations for our photographer (Nick Speer), bus service (Snyder Bus), chalkboard lettering (Stellabird Creative) and DJ (Fantasy Productions). By booking the whole Jack’s “dream team”, we felt like we couldn’t have been happier with the day!-

Dream wedding venue!
We had our wedding ceremony and reception on 6/6/21 at Jack's Barn and it was seriously the best day ever. From the moment we arrived Darren and Demi were there to greet us and guide us through the day. Even though their venue is DIY the whole staff went above and beyond to ensure that we had nothing to worry about. Jack's Barn was the first venue we looked at, and we knew right away that this was the place where we wanted to get married. The venue is beautiful both inside and out. We also used their catering services, Beanstalk Catering, which was AMAZING. The wait staff and bartenders were fantastic. Demi and Darren were a pleasure to work with, easy to communicate with, and overall gave us the experience of a life time. Our guests, and even our vendors, could not stop raving about how perfect every detail was. We have zero regrets and if we could we would do it all over again without changing a thing! -

The team at Jacks barn has created a truly classic and unique venue.
The minute we walked into look at the venue, the staff was so friendly and helpful. We immediately fell in love with the romantic character of the place. Demi was so organized and easy to work out every detail. The wedding and grounds are breathtaking for photos. All of our guests were delighted and so taken with the venue. -

Awesome Wedding Experience!
My husband and I got married on April 23rd at Jack’s Barn. We couldn’t have asked for a more perfect day. The whole experience from initial planning through to the end of our wedding day was an absolutely superb experience. Demi met with us on multiple occasions to discuss plans, décor, catering, day of schedules, etc. Having these multiple visits kept the stress level at ease because I was able to see the venue multiple times and had check-ins to answer any questions that I had. Although, if I ever had a question, Demi was always only an email away and would answer super fast! The day of the wedding, Demi and Darren were on scene and always close by to handle anything we needed - whether it be an extra table, markers we forgot, or even a call to the liquor store for more tequila! The whole day ran like clockwork because of their magic – but at the same time nothing felt rushed. The room was set up exactly how we discussed with all of the awesome rustic décor options they have available (tree trunk table numbers, lanterns, ladder for favors, old door for seating chart, etc…). The food catered by Beanstalk Catering was absolutely remarkable! So many of our friends and family members gave us compliments on the food (especially the cookies and bars!) and how amazing our choice of venue was. If you are looking for a unique, personal and rustic wedding – this venue should be your top choice! -

Amazing Venue and Team
My husband and I were recently married at Jack's Barn during the Covid-19 pandemic. While planning a wedding during the pandemic can be an incredibly stressful and difficult task, Demi and Darren at Jack's Barn were an absolute pleasure to work with. They are incredibly kind and accommodating. Our wedding was also catered in-house by Beanstalk Foods Catering and our guests absolutely loved all of the food from the passed appetizers, entrees, all the way to the dessert. Our wedding was amazing from beginning to end, thanks to the amazing team at Jack's Barn. -

Pandemic Wedding
Demi and Darren are wonderful to work with. Even through the pandemic and allowing us to reschedule at no cost was amazing considering some of the horror stories I have heard. They were both always just a text or email away. They answered any question we had, no matter how many times we already asked it!! If you’re looking for an all in one, on one site venue I highly recommend -

Wonderful!
We enjoyed Jacks so much! The wedding day was beautiful.
Arriving on the day was super fun and easy for parking and setting up. They have music playing for you in the suites, it was so homey and comfortable.
Demi and Darren were so helpful and great to work with the past two years even with postponing due to covid; our November date switched to April and it was so smooth!
The whole venue inside and out is beautiful and rustic itself! I loved how they had lots of decoration already there to choose from, being kind of diy it was really nice and comforting not having to buy a lot of stuff!
Overall, it was a beautiful venue with beautiful people and we loved every second of it!-

We want to go back and get married here all over again!
Jack's Barn is the most amazing venue I have ever been to. It is so gorgeous you really don't need to add anything to it. We booked with Jacks Barn 2 years ago, and like everyone else who had weddings planned this year we did not expect all this covid stuff to happen. Darren and Demi were unbelievable accommodating during this crazy time! They were always available to answer questions and they did everything they possibly could to make their venue safe and make us comfortable during the pandemic. As our wedding was getting closer and covid restrictions were still in place we had to plan for an outside wedding, but then Demi and Darren completed construction on their venue making it possible to have our wedding inside again and honestly its even more gorgeous (didn't think that was possible)! They were so kind, professional, accommodating, and easy to work with. Everyone is still talking about how incredible our wedding was and how unbelievable the venue is! Thank you so much for making our wedding so amazing!-

If I could get married again, I would choose this place every time
We held our microwedding there this past Thursday and I can’t say enough great things about Jacks Barn. To start off, it’s very COVID safe! Lots of windows for ventilation and hand sanitizer stations everywhere. The location is perfect if you’re looking for a charming, fairytale vibe. Every corner is a perfect shot for photos/video, it’s breathtaking. The food we ordered was great and our guests loved it! Darren and Demi were so helpful and accommodating, I can’t thank them enough for everything! You can tell the location is more than just a venue, it means a lot to them and it shows through its beauty! -

Tom & Kristen Lake Wedding Reception
This is the place for a rustic atmosphere wedding. The owner and staff could not have been more responsive, friendly and attentive. They seemed to make everything flow without being obtrusive.
The whole affair was great and we had the best time.

Beyond Excellent!!!!!!
When my daughter and future son-in-law visited Jack's Barn, they absolutely fell in love with it. It was different, as well as unique, and not the average reception hall/center. It was rustic, meticulously clean, and the grounds were gorgeous! The owner as well as staff were very friendly, professional, and accomodating.
The day of the wedding, 10/16/2020, it poured but you would never know. No one was complaining, atmosphere was friendly, warm, and with the covid19, Darren and Demi went beyond our expectations and complied with regulations and we were inside the barn which no other venue can adapt to this covid19 as well as Darren and team made possible.
I would recommend this venue without hesitation to those who wish for a wedding that will be long remembered! -

The perfect venue
I can’t say enough good things about Jack’s barn. Getting married during a pandemic was super stressful working with Demi and Darren made it as good as it could be. They were so flexible and kept us informed every step of the way. They went the extra mile and made permanent changes to the venue so it could be used for our wedding and I am so thankful for that. I don’t know of any other venue that really prioritized their customers they way they did. Aside from how great Demi and Darren are the venue it’s self is beautiful. It’s rustic and elegant our pictures came out beautiful. The bridal suite is perfect I loved getting ready there. If your looking for a beautiful unique and elegant venue this is it.-

A great non-traditional venue!
We were engaged for a while and looked at a LOT of venues before booking with Jack's. My husband and I weren't feeling the traditional Jersey ballroom and knew we wanted something unique and authentic. I was a little afraid of the "DIY" aspect as I'm more of an Amazon Prime person rather than Pinterest person, but once I toured the venue and talked with Darren and Demi my fears of a "DIY" venue were alleviated. The team there helped make our vision for our day go off without a hitch, and in COVID times that says A LOT! If you're looking for a place that is unique look no further! -

Perfect wedding venue
I can’t say enough about Jack’s Barn. My wedding day was absolutely perfect and stress free because of Demi and Darren. The venue was absolutely beautiful and everyone that attended loved the unique barn. All the vendors that Jack’s recommendation were amazing. The bridal suit was so much fun to get ready in and we had plenty of room with 7 ladies getting ready! Anyone looking for a unique venue should go to Jack’s! You will fall in love. -

Best Wedding Venue!
Darren and Demi were absolute life savers throughout the process. They met with us and went over all the details and options for the wedding day. The day of the wedding, they were both outside with us making sure the ceremony went smooth, assisted throughout the receptions and helped us clean up at the end of the night! I can’t thank them enough for everything they’ve done! -

Dream barn wedding
The second we walked into Jack’s Barn we knew that this was it! We didn’t want a stuffy banquet hall wedding but something that was very natural and unique and Jack’s Barn fit the bill. It was very affordable compared to other barns we looked at in northern NJ and the decorations inside like the string lights and draped fabric, and the pretty grounds full of flowers got my attention right away. We also appreciated the on site bridal and groom suites so our bridal party, groomsmen, and ourselves can get ready the day of rather than wasting time with transportation. Darren and his daughter Demi made the process so smooth from the beginning and Demi met with me a few times to talk details before the big day. They even have some decorations from previous weddings that I used for my day that came in handy. We got raving reviews about how unique and cozy this venue was and guests were happy to see something knew compared to all the other weddings they’ve been to. I couldn’t have asked for a better day at Jack’s Barn. Thank you!-

The owner of Jacks Barn is extremely nice and helpful. He addressed all my fiance's and my questions during the tour. Jacks Barn has a lot of decorations for you to use at no additional cost which means you do not need to buy decorations. -

Daughters wedding
My daughter just had her wedding at Jacks Barn...and it was absolutely beautiful! From the beginning to end the decor the attention to detail was above and beyond we ever expected. All the vendors that were used made their day so special...she was treated like a princess. If you are planning a wedding, you must make Jacks Barn a stop on your list. It started with flare and ended with fireworks! Actual Fireworks! What a surprise! -

Amazing!
Hi,
I am the House Manager for The Loft at Jack's Barn, and also Chris and Darren are my fathers and the owners of Jack's. I recently got married here on 5/18/19, and I wanted to leave my personal review. First off our wedding day was amazing everything went off with out a hitch, the barn looked great thanks to Darren and Chris. We could have chosen to get married anywhere but we decided the barn because it's unique, and it's perfect for us, it's our style we love our barn and we take pride in what we do, so why wouldn't we want it as our venue for the most special day of our lives! Casey and I had an AMAZING time, all of our guests had amazing time, laughing , dancing, pictures, eating!!! We hired Inez Bennett as our wedding planner and coordinator, it was hard for me to distance my self from working my own wedding to just being a bride, and she told me constantly "I will handle this, don't worry" and she did. Her staff were truly amazing so attentive, checked on us throughout the night. I would recommend her to everyone. Our caterer was Vitella Catering Ally and Franco and their staff were amazing, everyone loved the food, they were there for us every step of the way, thank you for everything! Our photographer was Cherryville Photography Elisa was amazing we cannot wait to see the pictures! she is so talented, she stuck to the timeline and got every picture we wanted! We used Peter Mackey for our Videography , he does amazing work, he was so attentive, fun to work with just amazing we wait to see everything completed! Fantasy Productions as our DJ Bob who is also the owner was truly amazing, he did everything we had asked him to do, people were dancing like the whole time which is what we wanted!!!!! Our florist was Maribel Pina from Flowers by Gbella, just amazing work, our vision came to light, her team just did an amazing job. We did a unique woodland theme and it was perfect, so much time and effort went into everything!!!!!!!! We had Metrophoto Bus Fred and Sarah, we used their camper Penny everyone loved taking their pictures in there, we received the pictures and they are hilarious! Our cake was from Cake Fiction and DELICIOUS!!!! We had specialty chocolates and macaroons from Chocodiem. Everyone loved them!!!!! We had so much fun on our day!! This would not have been possible without these wonderful people being a part of it , so thank you!!! Just a truly BEAUTIFUL day. If i could i would do this again the same way, with no changes! THANK YOU! -

Great venue & great staff
My husband and I got married at Jack’s Barn in October and would recommend the venue to anyone looking for an elegant barn in an authentic rustic setting. We received many compliments on the unique space and the charm of the venue, and everyone had a great time. Darren and Demi were always very responsive and quick to answer any questions we had, and I had a lot of them! They thoroughly worked with us along the way to make sure that we had a great day.
We were also supposed to stay at their sister property, 20 Belvidere both the night before and the night of our wedding. However, there was an unfortunate situation with a broken boiler the day before our wedding that made this impossible. This threw a major wrench into a lot of plans, but Darren offered to help us secure other accommodations quickly, which was appreciated as there was not much time to do so. They then allowed early entrance to the bridal suite and were very flexible and accommodating as our needs changed. Our rehearsal dinner was also scheduled to be at 20 Belvidere, and Darren was kind enough to let us hold our dinner there even with the boiler issue. Since there was no heat, he and his staff made sure that the fireplaces were lit and constantly manned so our guests and the catering staff could be comfortable.
Our wedding day also had some unexpected challenges, but Darren, Demi, and Chris worked with us to make sure that everything ran as smoothly as it possibly could. The extra efforts they undertook were greatly appreciated, and I feel confident that they would go above and beyond for future couples as well. They are professional, detail oriented, and truly care about the couples and families they work with. -

Rustic+Elegance=Romantic atmosphere
One thing my daughter did not like about your typical reception hall is the wide open space - very impersonal, predictable, routine and boring. That's why my daughter selected Jack's Barn - The Loft. My daughter got married there last month and the guests are still talking about how beautiful and unique their wedding was!! A cross between rustic and elegance giving it the most romantic atmosphere!! The day was absolutely breathtaking! The bridal suite provided a vintage atmosphere which was perfect for picture taking and relaxation while we waited for hair and makeup and 'the' moment to arrive. The groomsmen lounge was equally perfect with leather couches, tv. Darren and Demi are absolutely wonderful to work with. Very professional, very organized and very attentive to details to help make the day perfect. They provide an open house, which I highly recommend attending, with vendors for photography, floral, wedding favors, shuttle, hotel, entertainment, decoration and detail The vendors that were selected helped create that one of kind experience because of their beautiful and unique talent, again, people are still talking about those details. The day from beginning to end was flawless! Everyone worked beautifully together! We were able to add our own personal touch to the venue with our own creative ideas, which helped to provide that one of kind setting. My daughter and I would HIGHLY recommend Jack's Barn - The Loft. I wish I had more daughters so I could work with them again - they were that amazing!!! -

Jack's Barn = A M A Z I N G ! ! !
We just got married at Jack's Barn in October and the day was nothing less than PERFECT! The barn was absolutely amazing and all of our guests are raving about how it was one of the best weddings they have ever been to. It's such a unique barn venue with a big bridal suite and room for the groomsmen to get ready as well. The grounds outside are beautiful and always have blooming flowers outside all year around. I would highly recommend checking this venue out if you are looking for a barn wedding. I cannot put into words how amazing our wedding was here. -

My husband and I were married at Jack's Barn on November 19th. We had looked at a few other venues, but when we walked into the loft, we knew we found our place. Darren, the owner, was super attentive from day 1, answering any questions or concerns at the drop of a hat. We attended the open house last February which gave us many ideas on vendors, transportation, etc on the day of. We were away at the 30 day mark prior to the wedding, and Darren and Demi were quick to work with us to make sure our timeline was perfect. When we had a potential issue with a vendor, Darren was quick to hop on the phone with me and discuss/help the situation be resolved. On the day of the wedding, Darren actually offered to pick us up at the salon to avoid added costs for us. The wedding day was more perfect than I could ever have expected. Everything ran smoothly with no issues. The venue turned out beautiful with our DIY touches. Everyone that attended the wedding could not stop talking about how great a venue it was, and what a great time they had. We had Frungillo as our caterer, and the compliments on the food are still coming! There are comments in other reviews about Darren's attentiveness, and I can say, without a doubt, that it was the best thing we could have had for our wedding. My husband and I are a bit over-organized (okay, we are both type-A!), and anything we needed, he was there - going above and beyond our expectations. We cannot say enough great things about Jack's Barn. I would recommend the venue in a heartbeat. Looking back, and remembering some of the more negative reviews that we read, they all brought up having to do everything themselves - you just have realize going in that this is not a wedding hall. This is the type of venue where it is what you make it. We had a vision, and after putting all the details together, it did not disappoint! Thank you again to Darren and Demi for all of your hard work making our wedding day a perfect memory! -

We booked the Loft at Jack’s Barn almost 18 months before our wedding. When we walked into the venue, we were blown away, but what sealed the deal, was the owner, Darren. Once we met him and saw his passion for the Loft, we knew we had found our venue. Darren and Demi helped us along the way with timely emails (sometimes very late at night), phone calls, and meetings. The Loft had many upgrades from the time we booked until our wedding day! The folks at The Loft will make any “Type A” bride feel calm! The day of the wedding, Darren and Demi took control and delivered my dream wedding. I cannot say enough amazing things about our experience with The Loft at Jack’s Barn! Thank you! -

I recently had my wedding at Jacks Barn this past September. The place is absolutely gorgeous! My guest are still talking about how beautiful it was. My wedding was nothing short then AMAZING! The staff was very helpful and accommodating since day 1! I worked primarily with Darren for almost the entire planning and he was so easy to deal with. I cannot thank him enough for helping me make my DREAM wedding become a reality. I totally recommend this place to anyone who is looking for a DIY style rustic venue. Also, use their preferred photographer Nick Speer!! He is the BEST and will capture all the special moments in his creative way. -

I wish I could give more stars to this incredible venue. From our first meeting with Darren, my husband and I knew this was the perfect venue for our wedding day. Darren, Demi, and his whole team could not have been more helpful and accommodating. From their amazing vendor recommendations to their exceptionally quick response times on any and all questions, they helped make planning our wedding a smooth and painless process. We visited the barn on multiple occasions prior to the big day, and every time we did we felt at home. The amount of work Darren and his team put into making the space the absolute best it can be is nothing short of incredible. They are constantly thinking of their client's needs and adding/fixing things to better accommodate them. I can not say enough great things about this venue. We couldn't have imagined a more perfect day, and our guests continue to gush about how amazing everything was!! Thank you for everything you have done, Darren- you were a pleasure to work with and the Barn is a hidden gem!! -

My husband and I had our wedding at Jack's recently. Darren, his daughter Demi, and the rest of the staff here are top notch! We had family come to NJ, mostly from South America, so we rented the Twenty Belvidere as well, which Darren also owns, for a two night stay and our rehearsal dinner.
As for Jack's, it's one of the most unique, beautiful places to have a wedding in the State of New Jersey. We had great weather, so we were able to marry on the expansive green lawn under the wooden arch right behind the barn. The town of Oxford and the venue make for an ideal, ethereal wedding experience. Our guests could not stop talking about how cool the setting and venue was! So different from most NJ wedding experiences.
If you're looking to do a rustic, bohemian-style wedding, this is the place to do it. We did a lot of things ourselves and we wanted creative control over the ambiance and decorations. The great thing about Jack's is that it's so simple and well decorated that you don't need to do much to make it look good.
Darren and his staff, as well the preferred vendors he works with are great and make the whole experience stress-free and worthwhile for the guests.
Have your wedding at Jack's - you will not be disappointed! -

Our Wedding Reception was at the Loft and we absolutely loved it!! And so did our guests who were very skeptical in the beginning when they found out our Reception was gonna take place at a Barn! Everybody had a great time and people kept asking me "Where did you find this place? This is amazing!"
We fell in love with The Loft at Jack's Barn the minute we first stepped foot in there. It was love at first sight <3 :)
And I'm sooo glad we took the 1 hour trip to check the Barn we had heard of because it was a very beautiful Reception just like we had imagined. It was very cozy and the lights oh so beautiful, make it a very romantic environment.

I absolutely fell in love with this venue when we first went there and it's 100 times more amazing on the day of when it's fully decorated. It looked more amazing than I could have ever imagined and Darren helped to make the day as less stressful as possible. He was very accomodating and responsive to all of my questions and concerns and was always available to help when needed. It's also extremely helpful that he has a lot of items you can rent in which they set up for you day of. Darren is continually working on adding things and making the venue better and better day by day (even though it's already amazing as is). Thank you Darren for helping me to create a day I will never forget! -

The moment my (now husband) and I stepped foot into Jack's Barn for a tour, we knew this was where we wanted to get married. The barn itself is truly magical and Darren was so awesome to work with. Our wedding was held on Saturday, April 1, 2017 and the day could not have gone any better. The Loft at Jack's Barn will forever hold a special place in our hearts. Thank you Darren, for allowing us to rent out your barn for our special day! -

My husband and I got married at The Loft at Jack's Barn on 11/18/16. I wish there were enough words to describe how amazing our experience was. First off....the space is literally the most beautiful that you will ever have seen. It was the first and last venue we looked at. Darren is a dream to work with, incredibly responsive and able to answer any questions that come up. The value for the venue is quite reasonable. The bridal suite is so incredible and certainly adds something to the big day. Our guests told us they have never seen a venue like this one, and it was so beautiful. Darren has also made a ton of updates, including adding central heat and a built in bar. Darren and Chris are certainly able to work with each couple to make it the day they were dreaming of. We are so happy we chose this venue for our wedding, and would highly recommend to other couples looking for an amazing venue with people they can trust. -

This place is gorgeous!!! If you want a lovely rustic feel, The Loft at Jack's Barn is for you. The owner Darren is so kind and accommodating, he makes the process so easy. It's also a steal compared to what other venues are charging in the NY/NJ area. BOOK IT! -

We can't even begin to say enough about Jack's Barn. From the start of planning to the end of our big day Darren and his crew were awesome. We had open communication, we received impeccable service, it felt very personable, not commercial, and the day went off without a hitch! Everything we envisioned came to life. The shop downstairs had endless rental possibilities so that we weren't stuck with a whole bunch of things afterwards, and we couldn't have asked for a more perfect day. Thank you again Darren and Chris! -

The Loft at Jack's Barn was everything we dreamed for the venue for our wedding. The look and the feeling of the Loft is eclectic and rustic there was so much there you didn't need any additional decorations. Darren and Chris were so great to work with... They help make sure everything worked smoothly.. We even rented out Twenty Belvedere for family to stay overnight and it was the perfect ending to our magical night. I would recommend this venue to anyone who wants and you would be lucky to have your wedding here.. We would do it all over again.!! -

Best venue ever. Take me back!
We could not have picked a better venue for our July wedding! The day my now-husband and I did our first walk-through, we both said, "we can see our friends and family having a ton of fun at a party here." The space allowed us to use some great vendors that were very familiar with the space (caterer, photographer, florist), but we weren't limited and could also bring some in that were new to Jack's (band, liquor, officiant). Darren & Demi were involved from the get-go and we can't imagine working with anyone else on what ended up being one of the most special days of our lives. And make sure you check out the Bridal Suite! It was the perfect place to spend the day getting ready with my best friends, and an even more perfect spot to catch a few private moments with my husband between the ceremony and the reception. -

Friendly and accommodating
I did not actually get married at Jacks barn, but some outlying circumstances and the interactions I had with Darren definitely warrant a review! My fiancé and I are both in the Coast Guard and actually stationed on the west coast (him at sea with no reliable communication) but Darren was kind enough to hold a date for us while we worked through the government shut down and until we had heard back from my fiancé. His willingness to work with us and try to accommodate our needs was a huge relief in this trying time for us; he helped make planning a wedding fun and full of options rather than super stressful. Darren has vetted two caterers that I know would be amazing as long as you budgeted properly for them. I hope he eventually adds one or two more budget friendly caterers that meet his high standards. Lastly I found Darren to be easy to talk to, professional, and willing to candidly answer all of my questions. Definitely call Jacks Barn if you want enthusiastic and caring people taking care of you both before and on your wedding day!! :) -

The owners of the Loft are wonderful. They are easy to work with, help achieve your vision, are very helpful and flexible day of, and are available and at your service to ensure that you're day goes smoothly. The quality and dedication to the venue really shows and they were a really great, helpful team. I highly recommend this venue if you are looking for absolutely romantic rustic charm. The guest at my wedding were in awe and had a wonderful time. -

We LOVED Jack's Barn. We had been to see a few different "rustic" venues, but as soon as we saw the Loft, we knew this was the space for us. Chris and Darren were wonderful to work with from the beginning. Darren answered every email, text, phone call within a day. The bridal and grooms suites were incredible from the decor to the wood burning stoves, this place truly is magical. It is very DIY, so be prepared for that and the barn is not temperature controlled, however, you can bring in heaters (or fans) and it worked out perfectly! Our guests loved everything about it. The day of our wedding, it was a downpour the entire day without a break, Chris brought us to 20 Belvidere (an incredible mansion they renovated) to have our first look and bridal portraits done, it was amazing. We used two of their suggested vendors (Cake Fiction and The Cottage Gardener - they were both fantastic)! We highly recommend Jack's Barn and had the best time. -

Jack's Barn was a wonderful place for our fall wedding. The space is perfect for couples looking for a venue with a rustic, intimate feel. It is full of beautiful furnishings, fun antiques, and great places to take pictures. The owner Darren was easy to work with throughout the planning process. All of our guests could not stop talking about how much they loved being in the barn. Darren provides a list of 3 caterers that you must use, and we loved ours (David's Country Inn). Other than that, you may use whichever vendors you'd like (florist, photographer, etc.). Another huge plus is you get to use the beautiful bridal suite to get ready in - my wedding party loved it! We highly recommend this place. -

We were in awe of The Loft at Jack's Barn. My husband and I knew we wanted to say "I Do" here from the moment we walked through the door. Darren and Chris have put so much love and dedication into this venue and it shows; from the rentable furniture options to the renovated bar- everything is perfect! The team invited us to an open house after booking to see their many updates. This was extremely helpful as we planned all of our decorations and seating arrangements. We also met with the team throughout the planning process. Darren emailed us promptly when another planning milestone came (9 months, 6 months, 30 days), to plan our meeting.
My husband and I also rented their property 20 Belvidere! This mansion is absolutely stunning. We were able to have our entire family of 14 stay with us comfortably. Q Classic catered our rehearsal dinner and Darren and Chris were easily available to us during our stay. The mansion made the perfect backdrop for our first look and formal photos. We got married on July 16, 2016- one of the hottest days of the year! The staff at Jack's worked hard to make all of our guests comfortable. Darren promised upon booking that any issues that may come up on the day would be handled without stress on the bride and groom and he did exactly that! Their list of preferred vendors helped us chose our caterer- David's Country Inn. The two teams worked beautifully together to give us a PERFECT wedding day. Thank you, Darren and Chris!!! -

What a magical venue! It was the first venue my husband and I looked at and we cancelled all but one other venue appointment, even that one paled in comparison to Jack's Barn. We were going for a rustic, vintage, romantic vibe - almost a bit hipster like - and Jack's Barn was the perfect setting for our vision.
Such a uniquely perfect place for an intimate wedding - we had 100 guests and not many more people could have fit in there comfortably.
The owners Darren and Chris have a lot of pride in their venue and in the year since we have booked the place so many aspects have been renovated - bathrooms, parking lot, decorations etc. They are continually working to improve and update the amenities of the venue.
I would say that this is definitely not the choice for a bride who wants to one stop shop. It's not like your typical catering hall where you can get your food, alcohol, flowers, cake etc all in one go. You have to identify the vendors that you want to bring in. Luckily Darren is building a very comprehensive preferred/suggested vendors list for future brides to refer to.
The barn was the perfect canvas for all of the DIY I wanted to do and Darren collaborated with me on several ideas. It also was the perfect backdrop for all of our photography needs. The owners also own a mansion in town which we rented to do our first look at - gorgeous!
It was a bit pricier than I originally was hoping for with my initial budget, but such a unique venue always comes with some constraints - the caterers have to set up a mobile kitchen since there is not one on-site. But the cost was worth it for the memories that were made.
My family and friends cannot stop commenting on how unique and special our wedding day was. Many people have commented that they do not think they will ever go to a wedding quite like this one - and that's in large part to the character that Jack's Barn added to our day.
Thanks for all your help Darren and Chris! We love Jack's Barn! -

Rustic Beauty!
Demi and Darren were great to work with, during our wedding planning. They were fun, helpful and easy to work with during our planning.
Their venue is indeed that timeless and rustic atmosphere that one would look for within the barn venue arena.
Nearly everything we needed was included, and at the ready for our special day and they were always simply just a text away.
It was indeed a great place for what should be one of someone's most cherished of moments. -

We chose Jack's Barn for the sheer beauty and uniqueness of the venue. Jack's is an old feed mill that is literally a restored barn. We loved that it had two floors (separated by a few steps) so that there was a more traditional reception and dance floor feel.
The barn is so beautiful at night and with a lot of DIY and some creative vision it became exactly what I wanted it to be.
In renting Jack's you have to understand that you are literally just renting the space. You or your team have to literally do everything down to sweeping the floors before the event. There is also a lot of red tape about what you can and cannot touch, use, move, etc. and I thought for what we paid some of that was punitive. -

Do Not Book
Building and grounds are beautiful. The owner is a nightmare to try to work with. He also is willing to break contract with you and steal from you.
Leading up to our wedding day at Jack’s Barn, the GM was wonderful to work with. Demi was accommodating, knowledgeable, and responded quickly. I wish that was the end of my experience and this review. But sadly, it is not.
The day of our wedding (11/19) there were issues that my husband and I overlooked, because nothing can be as perfectly envisioned for such an important event. However, in hindsight, not having the layout ready or decor available even after agreed upon previously is frustrating. Additionally, walking their dogs on the property to relieve themselves in sight of guests was unnecessary. And finally, rushing us out the doors even though the contract stipulates we have an hour to clean up and vacate the premises was awful. We left items behind unintentionally due to this and also could not say goodbye properly to guests.
However, all of that could have been forgiven if the owner, Darren, had not broken contract and unfairly withheld a quarter of our damage deposit even though, and Darren agrees, we did not break our end of the contract or damage the premises. Darren told us he was holding our money for himself because of presumed disrespect.
Apparently, signs that were on printed computer paper stating “no smoking” were removed, according to Darren. He stated that he found the sign, not on the wall of the groomsmen suite, but rather on the table inside the suite the next day. He said we intentionally took the sign down from the wall, which is disrespectful and so he withheld our money. We even asked him if it’s at all plausible that a sign fell down and someone placed it on the table instead of leaving it on the ground, but he said that’s impossible. He then added that the sign was removed in the bridal suite, which it was not. I was in there all day and no one moved any signage or decor.
My husband and I apologized for any perceived disrespect. We assured him that no damage was done, that we did not see anyone move the signs and we did not move them either, and that there was no cigar or cigarette smoking inside. Darren agreed with us, over the phone and in writing, that we did not break the contract and that no one smoked indoors or caused damage. He stated that he is the owner of this business and can run it as he sees fit. And so, he felt disrespected because a sign was moved, and so he decided to not give us our full damage deposit back.
If you don’t care about losing items, being rushed out of the venue even though you were working under the idea that you had clean up and packing time, and not receiving your full refund back of the deposit than book this venue. -
