From the reviews

Our daughter got married 8/14 and I have to say it was PERFECT!! We couldn’t have asked for a better day weather wise. Jeni and staff were amazing, right there to help with whatever we needed. The HayLoft is a beautiful setting for a wedding, the barn, the grounds and the atmosphere.

★★★★★ — Kathleen, Feb 2022

Jeni and the entire staff at Hayloft in the Grove are INCREDIBLE! I could not have had a better experience. They have one of the most conscientious, hard working and attentive staff’s around. They are thorough and available to help with all of your needs. The grounds are amazing! There is beauty and variety everywhere.

★★★★★ — Kristy, Jun 2022

Our daughter's wedding was at the Hayloft last Saturday. Jenny and Leann did a wonderful job keeping everything organized and running smoothly. The decorations were beautiful; loved the white lights inside and out.

★★★★★ — Elizabeth, Oct 2018

Beautiful venue... a huge charming old barn, with seating and a bar and buffet area upstairs on the main floor, and dining tables and ability to have main course buffet downstairs. Grounds include trees, gardens, cornfield, numerous inviting outdoor seating areas. Considerate and gracious staff.

Getting married at HayLoft In The Grove

HayLoft In The Grove 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.

Corporate events & private parties at HayLoft In The Grove

Reviews and the venue's own info mention corporate events, retreats, or private parties at HayLoft In The Grove — barn venues often have real weekday availability since weddings claim the weekends. A quick call answers the three things that matter: weekday and off-season rates, whether the space works for your headcount and A/V needs, and what catering is allowed. If your event lands on a Friday or Saturday in wedding season, ask early.
