From the reviews

I highly encourage couples to get married here. The venue was already beautiful to begin with, but with the recent updates that were made after COVID this venue is perfect! It was such a pleasure getting to work with Sarah and Cody. They were so helpful leading up to our post covid reception and even more the day of.

★★★★★ — Andrew, Jul 2021

Our wedding was august 19, 2023 and this place was more than perfect! It was secluded, peaceful and just outright beautiful. I couldn’t have imagined our perfect day anywhere else! thank you for helping give us a perfect weekend. The house we rented on the property was absolutely perfect in every way!

★★★★★ — Jordyne, Sep 2023

The Meadowood was such a beautiful place for our wedding. The owners Sarah & Cody were wonderful to work with. They assisted with making our vision come alive, setting up and taking down, and communicating with our vendors. I would recommend this place for anyone getting married.

★★★★★ — Alexis, Jun 2019

This venue is absolutely beautiful and the coordinator, Layne, and staff that set up were so wonderful and helpful! My husband and I are so happy with how our day and our pictures turned out! Even with it being rainy most of the day we had a great time and got gorgeous pictures!

Getting married at The Meadowood

The Meadowood 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 The Meadowood

Reviews and the venue's own info mention corporate events, retreats, or private parties at The Meadowood — 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.
