The furniture and surroundings are simply exquisite! It was a dream come true and we are so thankful to have had the joy of celebrating our wedding at The English Barn!

"This is the perfect venue for your dream to begin."

To say that we love what we do is an understatement. 

My husband and partner not only encourages me in all I do, but also empowers me to follow my passions. My husband would tell you that he never dreamed that we would be building a home with a barn, after our children were all grown and as we begin to celebrate our time growing old together. I told him “let’s pray about it and if it’s God’s plan, the doors will open."

We are a family owned and operated venue that was meticulously drafted, and designed to host the perfect fairytale wedding. From top to bottom, no detail has been overlooked, leading to the ultimate wedding experience for everyone involved.

We are so honored to extend our home to you, your friends & family!
