From the reviews

Beautiful place for a wedding. Definitely recommend it. Everything was perfect from the decorations to the food. We really enjoyed ourselves at my cousins wedding last weekend. If you're looking for a wedding venue I highly recommend this place.

★★★★★ — Brooke, Nov 2023

Attended a wedding here last weekend during the covid pandemic. The staff took social distancing and contamination prevention seriously. They provided masks, served everyone seperately instead of having food buffet style.

★★★★★ — Betsy, Jul 2020

Kathy and Robyn were great to work with! They, along with the DJ (who is included with the venue) kept the whole day/night running smoothly. The barn is so beautiful and everyone loved how spacious it was. The bar area is an added bonus. Also, the bridal suite is spacious enough for a big bridal party!

★★★★★ — Morgan, Jun 2022

Attended a wedding there last weekend. Post Covid but masks and sanitizer available at the door. All staff wore masks around food tables. Good flow with dedicated buffet, bar, and coffee area as well as a LARGE dining area and dance floor.

Getting married at Barn At The BackWoods

Barn At The BackWoods comes up for weddings — confirmed on their own site. Two things make the tour worth the drive. First, see it at the time of day you'd actually get married — a barn that glows at golden hour can feel very different at noon, and you'll want to walk the path your guests take from parking to ceremony to reception. Second, bring your real questions: the rain plan (where does the ceremony move?), the catering and bar policy, the music curfew, and exactly what's included with the rental — tables, chairs, setup, and teardown are where quotes quietly diverge. Popular dates at barn venues book 12–18 months out, so if the tour feels right, ask what's open in your season before you leave.
