About this venue
Situated on a gentle rise at the Huntington Central Park Equestrian Center, The Red Horse Barn Weddings & Events has a graceful, storybook charm that's as right for a rustic farmhouse gathering as it is for a chic Derby Day. With its sense of seclusion and unhurried vibe, this site is definitely a breath of fresh air. The property’s white paddock fences, expansive terrace, broad lawns, and meticulous landscaping lend an immediate air of sophistication to the scene. The showcase-quality, ultra-elegant 10-horse stable—complete with handsome equines—celebrates the high-end equestrian lifestyle. It’s perfect for all kinds of functions, from fancy fundraisers to company shindigs, but naturally our top choice for this location is weddings.

I had the pleasure of filming a wedding and reception on location at Red Horse Barn this past year and what an amazing place! The in-house event company are great to work with. They not only make sure that the wedding couple has a fantastic experience, but they make sure to work as a team with the other vendors to ensure that the whole day comes together seamlessly. As a videographer it's so refreshing to work at a location that really cares about their clients and their vendors. I can't wait to be back filming there again soon! Feel free to take a look at this clip from a recent wedding and reception we filmed there: Jacob & Rachel Sneak Peek https://vimeo.com/617407191
