We got married at Hoosier Grove Barn on July 2 and it could not have been more perfect. We are from out of town, so relied heavily on the staff's recommendations-- which were great-- and their truly incredible event management. Everything-- fro...
m coordinating with vendors, to working through details with us, to the space set up-- was absolutely perfect. Vicki and Katie were awesome to work with and made the day run so smoothly. The weather was perfect and it was so nice to take full advantage of the great space-- to be able to have cocktail hour, lawn games, dancing, and s'mores outside. The wedding was everything I dreamed it would be and--because the Hoosier Grove Barn staff was so on top of everything (both leading up to the big day and day-of)-- the groom and I got to enjoy every minute of it. I would pick Hoosier Grove Barn a thousand times over.

Mallory, Vicki, and the entire staff are absolute class acts!! We were thrilled to see the little add-ons the venue provided, including a champagne toast, fire pit, wedding arch, and many other options to help tailor our day exactly as we imagined. Of all of the parts of my wedding, booking with HGB was the best decision we made. All of our guests were blown away with how gorgeous the barn and campus were, and raved about the service and well-stocked bar. We had an amazing wedding day/night, in large part thanks to HGB. I could not recommend booking with them enough!!

Her crew were on top of all of our guests needs, helping the caterers and making sure the tables were cleared etc. we had a beautiful day with ideal weather - ceremony was outside and cocktail hour too. Dinner and dancing were inside. It made it so fun to utilize all areas of the campus. We even had a bag game and giant jenga set up and they were fully used. Thank you Hoosier Grove Barn for a truly memorable and beautiful day! Oh and listen to them when they make recommendations for caterer and DJ - they know who is best and works well at the venue. Shout out to Relish Catering and MC Pro DJ - Ryan Runnion! Both are top notch!

was so knowledgeable and was always happy to meet with my mom and I when we wanted to discussion plans and visit the barn. I cannot imagine the day of our wedding being any more perfect or running more smoothly. The whole entire staff was professional, friendly, and went above and beyond to make our day fantastic. The staff will do whatever they can to make your day perfect. For example, I love iced tea, but not sweetened. The Barn usually only makes sweetened tea, but the staff found out, and made a special batch of unsweetened iced tea just for me. Not only that, but I never came back to my table to find an empty glass! Do not think twice. Book your wedding here now! You will not regret it. Not only will you have a charming backdrop for your ceremony, reception, and pictures, but you will be so well cared for that the staff will seem like friends and family.

ecstatic! Shout out specifically to Vicki, Mallory, and Colleen for being a sort of bride tribe for me leading up to the event and throughout my wedding day! Not having been in, or attending, many weddings before, I asked a lot of questions and each of these ladies were there patiently guiding me and helping me ensure I had the most perfect day!!! Thank you ladies, I couldn't have done it without you all!!!! Their other event staff were all fantastic!! Helpful, polite, and they looked for ways to improve the night as it progressed! For example, shortly into dancing they came up to me and asked if I wanted to bring out the left over appetizers for a late night snack and I was totally on board! I hadn't thought of doing that before, and they stepped up to make my night that much better!! My family and friends commented to me as well with how impressed they were with the even staff--for being so courteous and thoughtful! Pricing wise the barn is fair, even a bit of a bargain, considering the level of open bar you'll receive!! The barn itself if perfect for 100 guests, not too big where it feels empty, but not too small where it could feel crowded!! Plus the whole interior and exterior of the bar is fantastic for photo-ops!! The neighborhoods nearby are somewhat challenging for photos, but most decent photographers should be able to work around them to give you some stunning photos!! Overall: I'd recommend for any bride and groom looking for a beautiful location, GREAT service, and fair price!!!

My husband and I got married on October 13th, 2018. We decided to have our wedding at Hoosier Grove barn after taking a small tour of the barn and the rest of the facilities on site a year prior to our wedding. We knew right away Hoosier Grove ...
was going to be the perfect place for our dream wedding in the fall. The barn provided a beautiful intimate banquet room where we held the reception and part of cocktail hour. Our cocktail hour was held outside in the area between the barn and the garden where we got married, but due to cold weather staff assisted with escorting everyone inside of the barn to finish up cocktail hour. The staff did a wonderful job setting up tables and helping decorate both inside and outside. This venue was wonderful because it provided many options to get married on the grounds of the barn including the school house, garden, barn, or numerous places outside on the grounds. My husband and I chose the garden to have the ceremony which was surprisingly warm for the middle of October thanks to the outside fire pits provided by the barn. During cocktail hour the staff was so helpful with keeping the food that we provided hot and cold and also bringing the food out and setting it up for us. Hoosier Grove barn is a great choice if you are looking for a venue that allows you to bring your own food for cocktail hour without going through a vendor. Hoosier Grove also allows you to supply your own vendors instead of picking off of a narrow list of vendors (although they do provide a vendor packet). I also really liked how the bar had name brand and top shelf alcohol and a wide variety of beer which I found very unique. My favorite part about Hoosier Grove Barn was that is was very affordable and did not have any hidden fee's. The packet they provided was very straight forward and broke down how much everything cost (including gratuity costs). The staff at Hoosier Grove Barn were friendly and more than helpful with planning and preparing the wedding of our dreams!! The only negative I have to say about this venue is that it is your responsibility to clean up after the reception which can be a little bit of a hassle at the end of the night.

Hoosier Grove Barn was the first place we looked at for our wedding, and even before looking at other venues, we knew it was the one. We had our ceremony in the garden outside, which was so intimate and beautiful (and makes for amazing pictures...
after dark!). We got SO many compliments about how elegant, rustic, and clean the barn looked inside. One of the selling points for us was the use of the outdoor space, which we used for outdoor games and a s'mores pit at night. They even had a loft area available inside, which we used for Mario Kart :) Hoosier Grove is open to almost any type of decoration or addition, and are very accommodating for any type of wedding you may have. Vicki and Mallory were very helpful with questions before the big day, and Vicki was on top of everything the day of. After all the stress of putting everything together before the wedding, Hoosier Grove made the actual wedding day run so smoothly, we could finally relax and enjoy everything! It really was the perfect day, and we are 110% sure we chose the right venue for it - thank you!!

Throughout the planning process they immediately answered our endless questions, allowed us to spend time at the venue to take measurements and test out equipment (we shared a video during the reception), and even offered additional ideas for our theme. Their enthusiasm was contagious! The day of the wedding flew by flawlessly! Vicki, Mallory and the HGB staff were amazing keeping us discretely on track and making sure all the planning was carried out seamlessly.

There are many places to take pictures at the venue making it easy to get all of our bride/groom portraits, wedding party pictures, and family pictures done all before our ceremony. We got married in front of the schoolhouse steps. The staff at Hoosier set all the chairs up, moved the chairs from the ceremony to the tent, then even took down all the tables/chairs under the tent while we were dancing. It definitely made cleaning up at the end of the night a little less stressful! The communication with Hoosier was great. Both Mallory and Vicki were great people to work with.

We ultimately decided on having our wedding here due to the great price and everything that is included in that price. We realized how good of a deal it was after doing our research on similar venues. The only cons of this venue is that the actual barn doesn't hold that many for the dinner portion so if you are planning on having over 100 guests you will have to purchase a tent as well. Also, since our wedding was on a Saturday, we didn't have the option to decorate the night before so, that all had to be done all the morning of which was a little hectic. However, we were made fully aware that that would be the situation before booking so there were no surprises. It was also nice that my bridesmaids and I were able to get ready in the loft area where I was able to oversee the decorating and everything. Overall, the entire day was beautiful and we had a blast!

We wanted to have our ceremony on the steps of the schoolhouse, and it started pouring rain an hour before the ceremony time. Vicki and Mallory ran around outside in the rain, communicating with the appropriate people, to be sure that the other vendors waited until it stopped raining to conduct the ceremony.

Highly Recommend! We got married on May 6th 2017 at Hoosier Grove Barn and it was simply a wonderful day! I couldn't be happier with how everything turned out and having our wedding on the beautiful grounds of HGB was just perfect! First of all...
I want to thank the wonderful wedding coordinators who made our day happen- Mallory, Leslie and Vicki were helpful, friendly, super accommodating, idea filled and reassuring that the day would be great- and it was!! I went to the barn many times to get ideas on how I wanted it set up and every time everyone was so helpful. Our weather for the day originally wasn't looking too good and we had to make a last minute decision to rent a tent for the ceremony so we met with Leslie and Mallory and went thru the logistics of setup and "the look" and we decided to not do the rent over our ceremony site but instead to put the tent on the lawn as a backup plan and I'm so glad we listened because we ended up luckily having a beautiful sunny day and were able to have addtl seating in the tent for people to avoid the sun and our Groomsmen hung out there prior to the ceremony and it just turned out great! For the best bang for your buck I highly recommend Hoosier Grove Barn - our bridesmaids got ready in the barn Loft area, it was perfect for hair/makeup and mimosas :) we had a group of people help with our table and decor set up, Mallory was always around keeping us up to date, there are so many options to have your ceremony at on the grounds - we chose their newer garden area and it was just so perfect! Picture taking areas are endless and our guests had space to linger and walk around and enjoy the area! Making room for the dance floor was done in the blink of an eye and none of the guests were too bothered - the sound for the DJ was good and the Bartenders were even better! I heard nothing but good reviews from my family and friends about the service , servers and the bartenders keeping those drinks flowing haha!

most competitively priced as well for what you get. They had lists of dozens of caterers, photographers, bakeries, decorators and any other vendors you could imagine for a wedding already listed out with contact info in a tidy little folder that we got when we looked at the venue. Every vendor we talked to had nothing but wonderful things to say about HGB, and every time we had any questions or concerns, any staff member that we would reach out to was incredibly quick and precise with their responses. We got updates and reminders on things from Elisha on a regular basis, and the payment plan was laid out in a very manageable timeline and explained thoroughly to us from the beginning. Obviously planning a wedding is one of the most stressful things a lot of people can imagine doing, but between the abundant information provided and the help from staff members from HGB we honestly were able to put a lot of specific touches on our planning and had a lot of fun in the process! On top of all this, whenever we thought of something specific (like flying a Cubs flag from the flag pole out front!) that needed special permissions, Elisha or Leslie would address it right away and make sure we could do everything we wanted on our special day.

cktail hour outside complete with 2 outdoor bars. We had dinner under a tent outside and saved dessert and dancing for the barn! We chose this venue because of the price and flexibility. You really can't beat a venue that includes a bar package in the venue price and allows you to choose all your vendors. You can decorate however you'd like. We did not need a single decoration for the ceremony. We added some fun touches in the barn but it's beautiful rustic simplicity doesn't need much. It even has very cute lights strung over the center of the barn (in our case, over the dance floor) that really give it a magical ambience. Also, do not be scared off by the fact that inside the barn can only hold 140 for a sit-down dinner. We anticipated more guests than that so we decided to do a tent outside for the dinner and there was still plenty of room inside for the dessert and dancing later in the evening. The barn includes tables, chairs and basic linens. You can make it as fancy or as laid back as you'd like. The staff was so helpful and attentive. They helped coordinate some specialty alcohol that we wanted to order for an additional price. The next day we were able to pick up the extra unopened unused alcohol that was left over. The alcohol in the bar package is quality named brands (not gross well drinks from unheard of brands). Elisha, the wedding coordinator, and Leslie the director, went above and beyond. They answered all my questions throughout the year leading up to the wedding. The staff also handles the clean up. I wish I could get married here all over again!

Our wedding was a bit different in the sense that we had a lot of transitions that took place on our wedding day. Our ceremony took place outside and it was absolutely stunning! Craig and I had about 165 guests, so they would not all fit inside the barn so we had to rent a tent for dinner. After dinner we transitioned inside the barn after dinner for the reception. The staff went out of their way to make each transition smooth and stress-free. They moved our personal items out of the loft and transported decorations from outside to inside. The following day all of our table decorations and miscellaneous items that had been left at the barn were neatly packed and organized. I can’t recommend this venue enough.

A hello with a smile is the easiest way to make someone feel welcome. On the tour with Hoosier Grove Barn I felt very uncomfortable as I was rushed from room to room with Leslie the planner that seem annoyed that he had to show me around the facility. The planner Leslie then proceeds to tell me that he would not be able to rent the space to me for the price that was originally quoted on the phone. He also tells me I would have to pay for a wedding package even though my wedding and reception event will occur out of state. I was told I would not be able to rent the barn for the party rental price originally told and also stated on their website. He gave me every excuse in the book as to why I could not rent out the facility. If you are going to refused someone a price based on the type of party, then it should be clearly listed on your website. I would never recommend a place where the initial point of face to face contact doesnt include a hello or a smile. Event planning customer service #1 rule should be to make the client feel invited. This was a poor experience with a lackluster 9 minute tour of the facility. Customer service is huge for me.

ng that is more casual, however you can make it as formal or casual as you want. Ours was right in the middle and exactly what we imagined. The barn rental was $2000 and we had to pay $1500 for alcohol beverages. Helpful hint**they do not list on the contract that you have to have an open bar, but will make you have one and pay the price for each person. We could not afford to do that, so we had the $3000 beverage minimum cut in half, as we could not afford $3000 for alcohol. We ended up not even meeting the $1500 minimum (300 short) so it seems the $3000 is rather high. When we fought about the alcohol not being in the contract, they offered to give us our deposit back but we argued that we had sent out save the dates and it was too late. Be prepared to fight for this if you don't have heavy heavy drinkers.Also, there is a 5 hour limit on the open bar which is important to know, which we didn't until the end. Beside that point, it was the perfect venue and worth it and a great value compared to other surrounding barns. I highly recommend this venue and Lori is great to work with!!

The venue provides all the tables, chairs, linens, etc... and a top notch premium bar package. The value for our experience here was priceless. Such an affordable venue that allowed us to make the Big Lucky Day of our dreams! We cannot thank the staff of Hoosier Grove Barn enough. We highly recommend this venue for a amazingly perfect rustic wedding experience! :0)
