We are so grateful we chose Cherry Barc Farm for our wedding! The property is absolutely breathtaking—the vineyard, the rolling farmland, the unique ceremony site, and even the swe...
et farm animals created such a magical and memorable atmosphere for us and our guests. Everywhere you look is picture-perfect.
On top of the stunning setting, the staff was amazing to work with. Everyone was incredibly responsive, polite, and helpful throughout the entire process, which made planning and the big day itself so smooth and stress-free.
Our guests couldn’t stop complimenting the venue, and we truly couldn’t have imagined a better place to celebrate our special day. Thank you, Cherry Barc Farm, for making our wedding unforgettable!
The owners and venue staff are extremely friendly and are amazing to work with. Their attention to detail is top notch. They answered all of our questions and helped put us at eas...
e when the weather did not cooperate and we had to move the ceremony inside the barn. Thanks to the staff at Cherry Barc Farm we had the perfect wedding day that exceeded our expectations. We highly recommend taking a tour of the venue if you are considering a rustic barn wedding. We opted to rent several decor items directly from the venue which was convenient and added the perfect finishing touches.
I wish I could relive my wedding day over and over again because Alison, her Team, and Cherry Barc Farm are a dream come true.
It was difficult to plan a wedding from across the co...
untry, but Alison was so supportive and made our visions and dreams of our wedding day come true.
The venue was gorgeous and accessible for my grandparents. My Mom adored the Bridal Barn, and we felt right at home getting ready for our day.
The decorations that the venue has and can provide are high quality and matched perfectly with the items that I had purchased as well, and Alison knows exactly what she is doing to make sure that the vendors are on their A-Game and your family feels right at home.
Please include the Deluxe Coordinating Package and Florals for your wedding. My bouquet was beautiful, and the flowers were from local farmers which I so appreciate.
Alison - Thank you for everything you did for Jimmy, Biscotti and I. We could not have done it without you all!
My wedding was an absolute dream thanks to Alison (venue owner). She was super responsive to all our needs and wants, and really went above and beyond my expectations. The venue it...
self is beautiful, I love the bridal suite to get ready in, and the guys had a cute area in the upstairs of the barn! The grounds have so many beautiful places for photos as well as cute animals that helped keep my toddler busy!
Alison also offers floral services and did an amazing job on our flowers even dealing with a small last minute change from the groom! She also helped us with our license which was super appreciated!
There is a Photo Booth option that we absolutely loved and getting to see the photos so soon after the wedding was super exciting!
I also took advantage of her wedding coordinator services which I highly recommended!! I was able to show up and relax and the venue was all decorated for me and match my needs and wants!
I highly recommended this venue and the additional services!!
Cherry Barc Farm is the most magical place to have your wedding! It was the first venue my husband and I toured, and we just fell in love. The property is absolutely beautiful. So ...
many ideal spots for photos. Alison does a fantastic job as well. She is so fun, creative, on top of things, and easy to work with! We hired her as our day-of coordinator, and she went above and beyond! She communicated between our vendors so we just got to enjoy the entirety of the day. She and her decorator did a marvelous job with decorating, displaying placards/favors, and incorporating the few decorations that we had brought from home. Would definitely recommend renting the majority of decorations from Alison–they are so pretty and affordable! Alison also did our flowers, and we simply adored the sunflowers and eucalyptus in our bouquets and centerpieces! So lovely for our June wedding! The bartenders also did a wonderful job with our wedding of 140. Everything flowed so smoothly throughout the day from start to finish. The animals on the farm were also a huge hit! Our guests loved taking photos of them :) It was the most perfect day. Thank you so much, Alison!!
I 100% would recommend booking this venue. It is absolutely beautiful with such a lively atmosphere. I booked the deluxe coordinator package, which made so many things run so smoot...
hly. Alison is an amazing coordinator and her staff is also wonderful. I barely needed to bring decor with the coordinator package, which was a nice piece of mind when planning, preparing and packing things up after our big day. I also booked the in house florist, and shared a Pinterest board with Alison as I was not picky on my flowers. She did an amazing job and but those together better than I could’ve hoped for. The rest of my vendors were pretty much all of Alison’s recommendations, and my husband, guests and I could not have been happier. We had all great compliments on the food, entertainment, and how amazingly attentive Alison was. Thinking back on the day, I wish I could relive it, but it also leaves me so speechless as we could not have asked for anything to be different. For a day celebrating our love I am beyond relieved by how perfect our day was, and we owe so much credit to Alison and her Cherry Barc Farm’s staff!
Thank you so much for memories that will last forever!

I cannot say enough good things about cherry barc farms. We just had our wedding there last week for about 135 people. Not only is this venue beautiful, but the staff is AMAZING. F...
rom Alison, the owner, to her bartenders, to her support staff. All just phenomenal. I highly recommend the add on services of coordination & the Photo Booth. Our guests had a blast with the photos. With Alison’s help, our wedding went smooth and so stress free. We also did our flowers through Alison and they turned out AMAZING.

are a huge bonus. Alison coordinated for us and did our flowers. Alison and her staff took so much stress out of the wedding planning process and helped us have the perfect day. We are so glad we went with Cherry Barc Farm ❤️

isit any other venues, this was my dream.
The beautiful old barn, ceremony area with a stunning backdrop of trees, an apple orchard and of corse cute animals! There was nothing more I could of wanted.
I choose to hire Alison as my day of coordinator and would do it 100 times over. She made everything leading up to the wedding a breeze and the day of I had no stresses. She saw my vision and executed it perfectly. Even her 2 beautiful daughters were out there helping set up. So many complaments where givin on how focused everyone was and how great they worked.
I loved working with Alison so much I wish I lived closer so I could join her company and work with her all the time.
If you are looking for a beautiful well maintained barn venue I would over and over again suggest Cherry Barc Farm!
Alison was an amazing person. She did a great job as the event coordinator and as the venue owner. Her barn is so beautiful and very handicap friendly for our family: even all the ...
animals around make it even better which my son and nephews loved. Definitely book her for your big day, she helps a ton. Doesn’t get annoyed if you ask a lot of questions. Our wedding was amazing and I loved it so much.

ired her to be our coordinator and florist! And she made our day perfect! Sometimes you just have leave it up to the professionals! I would absolutely recommend this venue over and over again!
My son and daughter-in-law got married here September 24. I am a wedding planner and I have never had a bride and groom pay $3,500 for a venue and the communication was so lacking....
Once our balance was paid off, whenever I called with questions, the communication went downhill. I would sometimes not get a response for 48 hours, if at all. The day of the wedding we also needed help with WiFi communication due to trying to stream it, and ended up having the ceremony prolonged by 30 minutes because we could not get answers from Alison. The venue is beautiful and the wedding was beautiful, however I know that Alison is also a planner and we got no support or answers in a timely manner. I feel like our needs were not treated with the same urgency and pushed aside because we did not use her planning services. Day of, her worries seemed more aligned toward her bartender rather than the wedding at hand. Furthermore, we brought in a keg and put it off to the side where guests could see it, and Alison and the bartender put it behind the bar where no one could see it nor did they inform guests that we had one and it resulted in only 3 glasses being drunk from it and we lost $127 from it. In conclusion, if you need help with a lot of details and hire the host as a planner, this is the perfect venue. If you're planning your own, lots of communication lines will need to be opened beforehand (which we did not anticipate). Overall their wedding was beautiful, just make sure you pay attention to detail.
Amazing venue! The barn space is gorgeous and the surrounding farm is spectacular for photos and guest entertainment. We used Alison's talents as our day-of coordinator and florist...
—BEST IDEA EVER! She was phenomenal through the entire process and made sure our dream day came to fruition. Our wedding guests couldn't stop complimenting every part of our day! Thank you, Cherry Barc Farm!

vices, looking back I wish we would’ve done her services the whole time. She made sure every little detail was taken care of. I will recommend anyone looking for a barn wedding, we couldn’t be happier!
I genuinely don't have enough words to describe how amazing Cherry Barc Farm and more specifically, Alison Barc who owns and operates it is. Alison worked as our wedding coordinato...
r and everything went so beautifully. From setting up to tearing down, she did absolutely everything for us. She answered my late night texts when I would wake up with ideas, and when I came up with some pretty wild decor ideas she went with the flow and made it happen. The barn itself is GORGEOUS. I'm not a country girl and despised the thought of a rustic wedding, however Alison sold us on the barn and made it the furthest thing from rustic for our wedding dreams. The guests loved it. Included in our package was a Photo Booth and bartending services (as well as so much more) and it was definitely a hit.
I seriously don't think I can recommend Cherry Barc and Alison enough. I've been screaming it from the rooftops since my wedding and will continue doing so forever.
Amazing venue! Our guests absolutely adored it and Alison made sure our day was everything we dreamed of! I would recommend Cherry Barc to anyone wishing for a rustic barn wedding.

ded. The barn itself is gorgeous and the grounds are an added bonus. A list of recommended vendors is available but you can bring anyone in, which we loved. However, the vendors we used off their page ended up being phenomenal as well! You can bring in a wedding coordinator but there is absolutely no need because Alison is top notch! She's been doing it long enough and knows the ins and outs of her own venue so everything ended up looking amazing and turned out perfect. I didn't have to worry about a thing which made the whole experience unbelievably easy!
After our tour I knew I would not be able to find a better fit for us then Cherry Barc so we booked right after. On our way home I told my husband that I did not know what I loved ...
more the beautiful barn or it's owner Alison. I was so excited that I had the option to have Alison also be our wedding coordinator. She answered all hundred question I had for her, and she was so easy to get a hold of. The week of the wedding she made sure all of my vendors were on the same page, which was great to have that off my mind. As my wedding coordinator I was able to send her ideas of how I would like my decorations. When myself and my wedding party got to the barn I was blown away with how beautiful the decor turned out! Alison was so tentative to me and my girls while we got ready, it was abnormally hot for September so she made sure we had fans and plenty of water. During my reception we had a few little hiccups with one of my other vendors and Alison made sure everything was taken care of so I do not have to even think about it. We have received so many compliments about house beautiful our wedding was and how friendly Alison was to all of our guests. I can not say enough good things about Cherry Barc Farm and Alison.
Just stop looking. This is the place that you want if you are after the perfect barn wedding. With the freedom to choose your own vendors, you can make this space whatever you need...
and the owner (Alison) is sooo incredibly cool and chill. Seriously though:
Price? Amazing
Atmosphere? Even better
Plus there are animals, including goats!!

le process, she was always very responsive, and was everywhere on the day keeping things running smoothly.
The highlights of Cherry Barc Farm compared to other area wedding barns include a competitive price, real bathrooms (stalls, running water, handicap accessibility), farm animals, an outdoor ceremony area (with no tear down required between ceremony and reception), and of course Alison herself! The barn rental comes with tables, wooden chairs, and twinkle lighting already hung, giving a great backdrop for your individual decoration. The outdoor setting is gorgeous, and includes a great location for sunset photos.

easy! The ceremony location was wide open and beautiful, while the reception was large enough to fit 150 people, yet still feel romantic/cozy. 100% would recommend to anyone and everyone looking for a barn wedding!

is just absolutely gorgeous all the way around. Once we got engaged I dreamed of having a barn wedding, Cherry Barc Farm was the first and ONLY venue we looked into and once I saw it, I was sold. Alison is so incredibly genuine and caring, she responds to any questions you might have in a timely manner. I didn't have the chance to meet her husband until the day of our wedding but even then he too was incredibly helpful.

Allison was so easy to work with and very flexible which was great since I was out of state and my mother had to do a lot of the footwork.
