Nestled in the rolling hills of Oxford, Maine, The 1830 Wedding Barn offers couples a romantic and unforgettable setting for their special day. Once part of a flourishing dairy farm and apple orchard, this lovingly restored barn—originally built in 1830—blends timeless New England charm with rustic elegance.
From the moment you arrive, the barn’s rich history and scenic surroundings create an atmosphere unlike any other. Inside, original hand-hewn beams, classic barnboard, and carefully repurposed antiques—like orchard ladders, a vintage hay-claw chandelier, and a historic Hebron Academy milk cooler—add character and warmth to the space. Outside, sweeping views of open fields, a century-old apple orchard, and breathtaking sunsets set the stage for beautiful moments and lasting memories.
Whether you're planning an intimate elopement or a full-day wedding celebration, we offer thoughtfully crafted packages to match your vision:
Ceremony & Reception Package
Our most popular and complete offering, this full-day package includes everything you need for a seamless, stress-free wedding—from getting ready to the final dance. You'll enjoy exclusive access to the barn, multiple ceremony site options, a comfortable getting-ready suite, and all essential event supplies, including tables, chairs, lighting, and rustic bars.
Elopements
For couples seeking simplicity and deep connection, our elopement packages are designed to keep the focus on your love. Choose from our curated ceremony sites—tucked away in open meadows or beside the historic barn—and enjoy 2–4 hours of exclusive access to the grounds. Ideal for weekday vows or small weekend gatherings, this experience is perfect for heartfelt moments shared with just a few close witnesses.
Intimate Weddings
Celebrate with those who matter most in a warm, inviting setting. Our intimate wedding package is ideal for gatherings of up to 50 guests, offering 6–8 hours of access to the barn and surrounding grounds. With ample time for your ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception, this option allows you to savor your day without feeling rushed—bringing together rustic charm and relaxed elegance for a meaningful celebration.
Reception-Only Events
Already married or planning a destination ceremony? Our reception-only package provides the perfect space to gather, dance, and celebrate with loved ones. Bring your preferred caterer, DJ, or band, and enjoy exclusive access to the barn and property. We handle logistics, setup, and day-of coordination so you can focus on making memories in a beautifully flexible setting.

I was a guest at a wedding at the enchanting, whimsical 1830 Wedding Barn. Molly and Stan were so attentive to creating a beautiful, safe, and memorable experience. The ambiance in...
the barn was romantic and nostalgic, and the outdoor space for the ceremony was so gorgeous and picturesque. All of my questions were answered with ease. The best part was when the dance lights came on and everyone was dancing in the beautiful barn! I would highly recommend 1830 to anyone looking for a peaceful, detail oriented, and beautiful wedding experience.
