The setting
“We were supposed to have a 2020 wedding and switched to the Rustic Rose Barn just 30 days before our wedding due to so many covid policies at our first venue.”
“The venue is absolutely gorgeous with the large chandelier in the center of the dance floor and the string lights and drapery wrapped around the old wood beams.”
“A lot of things offered to put on event to kitchen space and rooms to get dressed they fed the horses so people could see them and that was great.”
“We really enjoyed the outdoor space for our ceremony, and the pond for sunset photos.”

From the reviews
This is the absolute best wedding venue!! The whole weekend went very smoothly. The venue help was so nice and helpful. Definitely recommend to anyone looking for a rustic barn wedding venue look. Very helpful that we could borrow some of the decor at the venue.
I am a bride and I loved my experience with The Rustic Rose Barn. It was such a beautiful and very well kept space. There is sooo many areas for pictures and different ways to set everything up. The staff was flexible with all our needs and make the experience that much better.
Everyone that I worked with was amazing! I loved this venue from the moment we first toured. The grounds are beautiful and they have so much to offer. I can't even express how perfect our day was and how amazing Susan, ashley, and Isabelle were to work with. I also loved being able to board my dog here.
The Rustic Rose Barn was a fantastic venue for our wedding ceremony and reception! Susan and her staff were amazing and very helpful throughout the planning process and during our special day! We felt very welcomed and genuinely cared for throughout the whole process. The barn is gorgeous and rich with history.
Getting married at The Rustic Rose Barn
The Rustic Rose 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.
Corporate events & private parties at The Rustic Rose Barn
Reviews and the venue's own info mention corporate events, retreats, or private parties at The Rustic Rose Barn — 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.
