Bearwood Event Barn

ding was way too tight and the aisle to walk down is terribly short which makes for an awkward wedding ceremony. Not ideal, do it outdoors if weather is nice enough. Also, it felt like there was no air conditioning so I wouldn’t recommend a summer wedding. Dance is forced to be upstairs in the loft, which makes for a separated wedding. Going up and down stairs in my dress and trying to talk with all of the guests was terrible. I believe the dance is upstairs because the floor gets too slippery downstairs, my suggestion is add different flooring in a small area on the main floor to avoid this issue, it would make a lot of brides/grooms happier. There is no option for set up the night before or clean up the day after unless you want to pay $200 per hour. Bearwood charges a 15% fee on the cater bill which makes zero sense because they don’t help with the catering or do any of the clean up. Katie (owner) was very unpleasant and unorganized. We had misleading information during our venue tour and upon signing the contract. So be careful, as things will be changed after signing the contract because they are new and haven’t quite figured it out yet. Had to pry information from Katie as far as how the venue would be set up (still wasn’t set up how I had asked) what size the tables were, how many tables, tablecloths, night before set up, basically everything that should have been given to me immediately after signing the contract. Chad was super nice during day of set up. I know I will get a rude and unprofessional response to this review from Katie based on her other responses to negative reviews, but the way she handled things over the past 8 months with communication is unacceptable.
