From the reviews

Beautiful wedding venue with location for ceremony , cocktail, and reception. The staff worked flawlessly all evening to keep wedding guests comfortable and attended to all needs as they arose . The views are amazing .

THE PERFECT VENUE!!! Mount Hope is truly a one of a kind venue for several reason. I had really high standards when looking for a venue so high of standards that it was seeming impossible for me to find the perfect venue and of course within the price range. Mount Hope met all my standards and then some!

★★★★★ — Erica, Nov 2025

This is a wonderful place to have a small wedding. It's out in God's country. The barn was built in the 18 hundreds. If those wall could talk. We attended a laid back country wedding. It was absolutely beautiful. The reception building was enough room for at least 100 people.

★★★★★ — Donna, Oct 2025

I recently attended my granddaughter’s wedding at Mt Hope. It is a beautiful country venue, well maintained, clean, and they had exceptional staff! I’m excited to attend another wedding in 2027. If you are looking for an elegant yet outdoor wedding venue this is the place for you. My family and I highly recommend!

Getting married at Mount Hope Barn

Mount Hope 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.
