Fantastic Wedding at ZenBarn

Everyone was fantastic to work with from the moment we scoped the place back in winter through the morning after the wedding when we were collecting our loose odds and ends. The level of professionalism coupled with the level of flexibility and ease the ZenBarn staff delivered is truly a rare find.

Great atmosphere, wonderful catering and the right amount of professionalism!

We had such a wonderful experience with Zenbarn. We had a June 2021 wedding (after having to postpone due to COVID from June 2020) and the ceremony took place outdoors. One of the great features of this venue is the onsite lodging. Since we are from out of state, we were able to take advantage of the Air BnB for the weekend which allowed us and some family to stay onsite for the entire weekend. The food was incredible - we went with the BBQ buffet style option which our guests loved. For those with special food allergies, preferences, we were able to have special options for them. All of our extra decorations we brought were set up for us. We both love Vermont for beer and we were able to request a special keg to be served at the wedding from one of our favorite breweries. We couldn't recommend Zenbarn enough. They worked with us through the pandemic and supported our choice to postpone which took any added stress off of us. Great atmosphere, wonderful catering and the right amount of professionalism to make our wedding everything we could have hoped for

A charming venue

Zenbarn was the perfect venue for our wedding. We had several compliments from guest that it suited us perfectly. It was rustic and charming with a very fun calming atmosphere. Lin was the perfect coordinator! She kept us calm and on track the entire time. All of my emails prior were answer within a few hours no matter how small the matter. We were struggling to find a venue that would accommodate an intimate wedding on a tight budget while still having all the traditional aspects a large venue would offer. Zenbarn was able to accommodate us and even set up all of our decorations so we had nothing to worry about but getting married! The food was superb and would 100% do it here again given the chance. We had the wedding of our dreams thanks to Lin and the team at Zenbarn!

Call them!

We had our rehearsal lunch at Zenbarn. They were so wonderful to work with and the space was perfect for us. We did a BBQ style lunch and everyone was raving about the food! If you're looking for a space for anything wedding related, I would suggest adding them to your list of potential venues and giving them a call!

They made our wedding dreams come true!

We cannot thank the Zenbarn team enough for going above and beyond to make our dream wedding happen. Our guests raved about the food, and the attentiveness of their team. It was a beautiful celebration with all of our friends and family.

The perfect venue for a quintessential Vermont wedding

We couldn't have asked for a better venue for our special day. It was absolutely beautiful, customizable, and Lin made everything so easy. We got to enjoy our entire day with ease as the staff took care of EVERYTHING. The food was incredible and our guests are still raving about that along with the extensive beer list of the best Vermont beers. The value of weddings at this venue is far beyond anything else we looked at.

The Air BnB allowed us to be onsite with our closest friends/family and was perfect for getting ready. We were even able to do a private yoga class in the morning in the yoga studio. Overall, extremely recommended as this is the perfect venue for that quintessential Vermont wedding.

Winter Wedding Dream

We couldn’t have been happier with our winter wonderland wedding at ZenBarn! The staff was so responsive and accommodating to all our needs and wishes. The upstairs was transformed into a wonderful ceremony location and the intimate downstairs area for the reception was so cozy and perfect!

Perfect Unique Vermont Wedding!

Our wedding was absolute perfect at the Zen Barn!!! We love this area and already loved the Zen for its super cozy and authentic Vermont vibe, so were psyched when they took on our wedding. The food was out of this world and they worked with us to create unique and delicious farm to table meal that our guests still rave about. They created a beautiful ceremony site outside with the reception and dancing inside the barn which is spacious while still feeling intimate. The staff on the day-of was flawless - everything was perfectly timed and they were so attentive. Our guests all told us how our wedding was the BEST wedding they had ever been to, in short due to the great location, amazing food, great beer list and overall aesthetic you really can’t get anywhere else at any of the other local wedding venues.

Lin, Noah and Arie really cared about making our day amazing and we are so grateful! Thank you again and sorry so late in writing this review!

Best,
Julia and Cory

Classic Vermont Wedding

We loved our wedding experience at Zen Barn. From the convenience of guest housing above the site to the ideal backdrop for the ceremony- it was a great fit. Working with Lyn was extremely helpful and took a big load off our shoulders. One of the highlights of the wedding was the great food and drink options. If you’re looking for a relaxed venue with staff that cater to your needs, this is the spot!
