We had the best time at Ash and Oak. The bridal suite and bachelor pad were perfect for getting ready. The ceremony under the big tree was absolutely beautiful and the barn was suc...
h a fun space for the reception.
We had a subtle Star Wars theme and the venue really leaned into it, which made it even more fun. The owner showing up dressed as Princess Leia had everyone cracking up.
We used a lot of the vendors they recommended, either through their events or just by asking, and every single one was great. Our day-of coordinator, Jaidyn, was amazing. As the bride, I felt like everything went smoothly and I was able to enjoy the day without added stress. We also used the day-of decorating service with Hannah and she did a fantastic job. It was so nice not having to worry about a thing.
The bar service was great overall. One thing to keep in mind is to ask how the pricing works. We paid for bar drinks and didn’t realize that applied to all guests, even those under 21, but they worked with us on a solution when I mentioned it wasn’t clear ahead of time. There was also a little confusion about whether the bar would switch to pay-as-you-go after the hosted hours, but the bartenders ended up staying longer, which we really appreciated. They were great to work with and very flexible, it was just one of those things I wish I had clarified sooner.
Overall, we are so happy we chose this venue. It was a beautiful, fun, and memorable day. Thank you to the entire team for making it so special.
Ash and Oak is amazing! Not only does the barn have lots of gorgeous charm, it was transformed into a beautiful wedding venue! From the chandeliers to the stringed lights, this ven...
ue is breathtaking! The staff was amazing throughout the months and days leading up to the wedding! They are super friendly and professional! On our wedding day I felt completely taken care of and that is priceless. They have a great selection of decor which helps out tremendously with decoration planning. Ash and Oak are a group of people who work with you if you have ideas that are outside th e box and will help accommodate your vision. I could not recommend them more!! For those looking for that elegant take on a rustic barn, this is the venue for you!!!
Ash and oak was beautiful and was the place of our dreams for our wedding day. Everyone helped so much and made the whole experience wonderful. They had everything we needed for th...

Very nice people and everyone was great for planning sessions and the day of. They changed the DJ and the name of place while in planning stages but everything still worked out we ...
just had to post on FB about the name change.
Wedding coordinator was horrible. She was 30 minutes late to the second meeting and forgot that she had it. She then went over the same things and told us the same stories which le...
d to a disastrous day of the wedding. She then chewed out the bar staff in front of the father of the bride and was then rude to him. Poor communication and forgetfulness. We had set up our rehearsal dinner for 6 pm in December of 2021. Reiterated that we wanted it at 6 in March when we came back for our 2nd meeting and she still scheduled another wedding rehearsal at the same time. She called the groom by the wrong name. Overall Barbarann and all her promises left us feeling like we got ripped off. My daughter wished she didn’t do her wedding because of all of the problems and screw ups that Barbarann promised her she would not know anything about. She is very disappointed which makes the parents upset because this is supposed to be the most perfect and magical day.
I want to start off by saying my wedding day was awesome and the venue is beautiful. I had several issues however throughout the planning process. They offer dj services through th...
em so during our planning meeting I mentioned that I would be interested and also sent text messages/literal phone conversations that I was wanting to pursue that. It was never mentioned how much it would cost or that a contract needed to be initiated…until my rehearsal dinner the night before. It was $500 fee for the dj to show up right before my wedding and get an attitude with my maid of honor also I made my whole playlist so I’m not sure what I paid for. I was doing a weekday wedding and apparently you get a discount in exchange for no time to decorate before your wedding. I found all this information out at my rehearsal dinner that I was not allowed to get my hair and makeup done at the venue because I only was able to use it for 5 hours. Communication was not clear about expectations and it just had me stressing the night before not to mention having to find extra money to pay for more time and this DJ fee. I give credit that they waived the “extra time” fee and begrudgingly gave me extra time during the rehearsal dinner to decorate. If you go through this venue take more initiative to get things in writing so you know what you’re getting.
My husband, Kyle, and I enjoyed everything about the Avon Wedding Barn! We got married inside, and it could not have been any more intimate or beautiful! Everyone working with the ...
Wedding Barn was so helpful throughout our planning process. Our questions were answered quickly and everyone was quick to offer helpful advice when we were having trouble making a decision.
We will forever be thankful to Barbarann and the rest of the AWB staff for making our day so special, so beautiful, and so fun! THANK YOU!!
The owner of the wedding barn was extremely outgoing and eager to help us with anything we needed. She met with us in person 3-4 times before the wedding day. They do conduct an op...
en house every year to let you look around and answer questions. The barn was rustic and charming! They shuttle your guests from the parking lot to the barn for your event. That was helpful for our guests that couldn’t easily get around. They also have a liquor license. It was nice to step back and let them handle it. I would recommend them for a wedding or any other type of event!
The bones of the venue are very pretty and the overall aesthetic is well executed. However the ownership/team of the venue will create a ton of challenges. They recently went throu...
gh a change in the venues coordinating role, leaving the organizing to an individual who cares more about their ideas than that of the bride. I was brought in to coordinate last minute due to this change because the bride, groom, and both families were extremely concerned to leave it in the hands of the venues team. The main individual will talk over you in all your meetings, turn every conversation into something about themselves, claim they know best in every situation resulting in an environment where the brides wishes are not heard. There were multiple other vendors working the same wedding who stated they normally refuse to work events at the venue due to the ownership/management. There were multiple instances during the event where they attempted to go over my head and change things opposite of the brides wishes. As an experienced wedding planner and coordinater I have never worked in such a toxic environment and will definitely stay away from the Avon Wedding Barn from here on out.
The barn went above and beyond our expectations. They worked through every step with us. We hired their bar services for beverages and it was amazing. They created a special drink ...
for both of us and made sure our guests were well taken care of. Barbarann and Tammy made sure that every single detail was perfect with decorations and placements. That barn is already magical but when you walk in and the decorations are out together it’s just a little more special. I only wish our day here lasted a bit longer because I didn’t want it to end ☺️ Thank y’all so much for an amazing evening!
1. The staff was amazing to work with. On our wedding day they were attentive and had a positive energy. Easy to communicate as I was planning. Darinda makes sure things get done. ...
Very professional.
2. The barn itself is gorgeous and I did not have to add any decor (but they allow it if you want).
3. Ceremony was gorgeous under the tree.
4. Dj was great. We had a blast playing yard games than moving to the dance floor.
Darinda and her staff are absolutely amazing! The barn itself is stunning and very well maintained. Jenn was our day of coordinator and she helped us so much and took a lot of stre...
ss off my mom, who basically planned my whole wedding. They definitely want to help make your day perfect. I highly recommend this venue!
Darinda, the owner, was the best person in all of our wedding planning. She was there answering questions and relieving fears and concerns since the moment we met and always made t...
ime for us! She made our day the best it could possibly have ever been! Not to mention, the barn is absolutely gorgeous!!!!!! She also accommodated multiple handicapped people for us and made it so easy for us to have all our loved ones present for the momentous occasion!!!!!!! I would highly recommend Darinda and the Avon Wedding Barn to anyone and everyone having a rustic, vintage, or country themed wedding. It was truly perfect!!!!!! :D
We had our perfect day on October 21, 2017. The day went so smoothly. We had the barn booked for about 2 years so the planning process was long but throughout it all Tammy and Dari...
nda were very helpful and accommodating with their advice and willingness to help. We got to enjoy ourselves and our guests which was great! It truly was the best day of our lives!
This wedding venue is beautiful and the decorator/sales manager did a phenomenal job. We were, however, unimpressed with the owner's attitude towards us and the people helping us w...
ith our wedding. She discussed payment with my now husband the day of our wedding (about an hour before the ceremony), was rude to my pastor, family, and bridal party. She was bossy and unappreciative of our family's help and did not defend us when we had difficulty with a vendor they recommended. Like I said, it was a beautiful place to get married, not everything was bad, we were just not treated well by the owner and that's not something you want on your wedding day.
My husband and I are SO thankful that we booked our ceremony and reception with Avon Wedding Barn! Our wedding was on a Friday so we were able to set up most of our decor and have ...
our rehearsal on the night before our wedding. It was perfect! On our first visit to the barn we were walked all over the property and shown all of the unique places to have our ceremony. We chose a spot underneath a big beautiful tree and Darinda, the owner, hung adorable bird cages/lanterns in the tree for us. She also helped us decorate inside of the barn with her own ideas and decorations, which gave the barn the perfect touch I was hoping for. Darinda is spectacular and willing to help with anything and everything. She made me feel very special on our big day. Everything about the barn, our ceremony, reception, photographer (Firm Grip Photography) and DJ (Kurt Streblow) was everything I have ever dreamt of! I HIGHLY recommend this property and everyone who works with Avon Wedding Barn.
