From the reviews
We just had our wedding at Marlene’s last Saturday, and are still reliving the day because of how perfect it was! We were in love with the venue, and couldn’t have picked a more perfect or picturesque place to get married. Kim and Delaney were both very helpful, kind, and responsive, and were great to work with!
I had the pleasure of working with Kim to plan a community event for our high school Cross Country coach of 50 years to be held at Marlene’s Event Barn. It was a huge success!! Planning the event with Kim was very easy.
My husband and I just had our wedding there this past weekend. My whole experience with them was amazing. We had inquired about the date we wanted and were told someone else had a soft hold on it. As soon as it opened up, we were called.
I can’t recommend Marlene’s event barn enough! Delaney is so helpful and genuine. She truly wants what is best for the bride and groom. Whenever I had a question, she would always respond within a couple hours. It is such a beautiful venue!
Getting married at Marlene's Event Barn
Marlene's Event Barn 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.
