Cove Acre Farms

Hokes Bluff, AL
  • Up to 200 guests

Cove Acre Farms was a working livestock farm for much of the 20th century, and still bears the character of those years. It was transformed into an event venue in 2014 by the Wright family. The Johnson family purchased the farm in early 2018 and have since turned it to one of the most unique wedding barns in Alabama. The barn is surrounded by farmland as far as can be seen, with a clear creek that flows through the property year round. The barn is approximately 14,000 square feet including two large, open balconies. The lower level includes bride and groom rooms with private baths. You may hold your event where you would like on the property, though we do have a few suggestions. The barn offers a large room downstairs, and a beautiful wooden dance floor and stage upstairs for indoor events. Outdoor options include: a lovely arbor in a manicured lawn, in front of mature hardwood trees, or one of several creek-side settings.

We had an absolutely beautiful wedding. All of the designs we picked came to life beautifully on the day of. The food and cake were absolutely to die for and we received so many compliments from our guests about this as well. We absolutely loved Michael in the design studio as well as Abby our day of coordinator. My only grievance and reason for not giving 5 stars is the communication during and after the planning and wedding day. We had to ask for things to be updated and fixed multiple times before things would be addressed which was a bit frustrating. One thing that really upset me was the fact that I had to correct the company at least 4 times in the months before the wedding that the bout count for the boys was wrong in the contract and was ensured it would be fixed. Eventually the count was fixed on the contract but come wedding day they were short 2 bouts and when I brought it up to the planner she was seemed quite unapologetic and in a rush to do other things. My photographer ended up making some with the leftover babies breath from my girls hair. This company will produce a beautiful wedding with all of the bells and whistles but can work on their communication with the bride and other family members, we are paying quite a bit of money after all. Check check and check your contract and you will have smooth sailing! Would recommend this venue

Such a beautiful venue! My day of coordinator, Rachel, made everything SOOO easy and helped me with ANYTHING I needed! I don’t think the day would’ve gone off as smoothly as it did without her! They do provide a list of preferred vendors, which makes it A LOT easier to book vendors instead of searching for them yourself. They do the majority if not all of the heavy lifting for you! The venue is ABSOLUTELY stunning too! From the ceremony space to the bridal cabin, it was just overall such a beautiful place; I’m STILL getting compliments on the venue! I honestly want to go back and do it all over again!
