From the reviews

The Outpost Center was the absolute perfect place to have our wedding- my husband and I wouldn’t change a thing about our experience! From the excellent staff and Christ-centered atmosphere, to the picturesque outdoor ceremony and photo area, to the intimate barn reception center- everything contributed to our perfect…

★★★★★ — Katie, Sep 2021

My husband and I picked the Outpost Center for many reasons. We wanted a venue that allowed us to pick a food vendor of our choice, has plenty of free parking, a large bridal suite, a groom’s dressing room, the opportunity to have the ceremony inside or outside, and the venue needed to be secluded from the public.

★★★★★ — Panhia, Dec 2020

My husband and I had a really great experience with Outpost Center. At first we were just going to have our reception there as we were getting married in Florida, but then some unforeseen circumstances happened that forced us to cancel Fl wedding and have to reschedule everything.

★★★★★ — Janell, Dec 2021

We had our wedding ceremony and reception at the Outpost and everything was phenomenal. From meeting with Mark for the tour through our entire wedding day. We LOVE the mission statement and beliefs of those who represent the Outpost! God bless them for standing firm in God’s word!

Getting married at The Outpost 212

The Outpost 212 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.
