Your way!

Creating a memorable wedding day is what all brides dream of and finding the perfect venue is the first step. Our vintage barn has an ambience and charm that will allow your vision to come true while your guests unwind and enjoy time with family and friends. The private location of 1912 Barn allows the happy couple to relax and enjoy each moment of the day without watching the clock or moving from one location to another, no time schedules are needed here. Everything you desire is just waiting for you!

 

Both indoor and outdoor ceremony options are available  on site with either the warm, rich tones of the Douglas Fir post and beams of the 100+ year old barn structure  or beautiful shady spots with cool breezes scattered across the property. Photographers are always pleased with  outstanding backdrops of beautiful fields, wooded wind blocks and amazing sunsets all provide unique elements for a portrait and album photos. And don’t forget the option to set up a starlit dance floor in the middle of the field just in-case you want to can catch a shooting star.

 

The rustic appeal of the 1912 Barn with its wood rafters, tin roof and large barn doors open out to a private country property to explore and relax both before and after the ceremony. Whether guest choose to sit by a cozy bonfire roasting marshmallows or wander the 6 acres with a glass of wine, all will agree that the comfortable atmosphere makes for a stress free day.  

 

As another convenience, we offer are private dressing rooms for both the bride and groom to make the  day run seamlessly smooth with space available for a morning Mimosa Brunch for the girls. Or maybe a round of bags for the boys, with a beer in the afternoon before the vows and celebration gets started.
