From the reviews
My husband and I had our wedding here last weekend and it was AMAZING! I have nothing but good things to say about Kayla (the primary contact you go through when booking) and her family. We received so many compliments day of and the days following the wedding about how gorgeous the setting was for a wedding.
I can't say enough about this place! We had our wedding here this July, 2021 and everything about it was perfect. The view is to die for, but most importantly, Kayla and the Sandvik family were incredible to work with. I truly can't thank them enough.
My sister had her wedding here and holy smokes. It was beautiful and well taken care of. There was a completely separate space for the girls to get ready and had plenty of parking for all of the guests.
While filming weddings at Barn on South Ridge for Complete Weddings + Events, I have documented some genuinely powerful moments. The natural surroundings add depth and warmth to both wide shots and close-ups. The space supports emotional storytelling without feeling staged.
Getting married at The Barn on South Ridge
The Barn on South Ridge 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.
