From the reviews
The Shepard Place was the perfect venue for our wedding. Everything was extremely professional and organized. Marco and his family did a great job setting up and running the bar, and they were a lot of fun! Emily did an amazing job coordinating everything on our wedding day.
This place is absolutely beautiful! My fiance and I went yesterday to look at it for a possible wedding venue... and believe me it wont disappoint you! The barn is beautiful inside and out giving off that rustic charm and character!
If my husband and I had to do it all again, we would 110% choose The Shepard Place again. It's an absolutely beautiful, rustic venue with little details to add elegance. All throughout the rehearsal dinner and reception we were told how beautiful the venue was. And I can't say enough great things about the staff!
I was a bridesmaid in a wedding at The Shepard Place this past weekend, and had a lovely experience! Thank you to the whole team, Emily, Mark, Anne, Abby, and Marco! The space is beautiful, so well decorated, and meticulously maintained.
Getting married at The Shepard Place
The Shepard Place 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 Shepard Place
Reviews and the venue's own info mention corporate events, retreats, or private parties at The Shepard Place — 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.
