    We had such an amazing experience with the Barns, and we would recommend them to anyone! Everyone on the team was incredible and professional, and they helped us turn our vision into a reality! It was so nice to have our day of coordinator, Nicole! She was a life saver, and made the day completely stress free. They really helped bring all of our vendors together too, so everything flowed perfectly. The Barns was very accommodating, responsive, and has a great preferred vendors list and timeline that made planning (almost) stress-free! Thank you thank you!!

    As a wedding photographer, The Barns is one of my favorite venues to photograph weddings at. The grounds are beautiful, and always make for print-worthy wedding photos. I always feel like I have plenty of options for backgrounds between the pond and weeping willow trees. And then the inside of the venue is just as picturesque. The contrast of the dark wood interior with the brightness of string lighting makes for dreamy reception photos, and works well with my bright and bold editing style.
