From the reviews
We recently had our wedding at The Barn at Black Walnut Farm, and it was extraordinary. From the moment we first toured the venue, we knew it was the perfect place for us.
I’ve had the pleasure of photographing at the barn a few times and I always get some of my favorite pictures here! The old barn is such an epic setting for a wedding - I love the balcony over the dance floor and giant disco ball!
My husband and I got married at Black Walnut Farm about one month ago, and every day we look back and wish we could do it again. Sarah and Jim made dreams come true that we didn't even know we had.
If anyone were to ask me what my favorite part of my wedding was I’d have to say “Black Walnut Farm!” What a remarkable experience it has been to work with Sarah, Jim, Lish, Lindsey, and of course, Miss Lilly!
Getting married at Black Walnut Farm
Black Walnut Farm 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.
