Rode's Barn

while we had our first look. Her corn bread and pulled chicken were big hits! Everyone told us how much they enjoyed the food.

even though I was nervous how everything would turn out, even my expectations were surpassed. The food was BEYOND amazing and the entire staff that night were super accommodating. The staff made setting up a breeze and Alyssa was there with me morning of for anything thing I needed. Our guests raved about how cool the venue was and it really did look like something straight from Pinterest. Hands down, best night ever!

h we had a small bar bill). Kept harping on how busy she was, how she had no help and how she just had a baby.

he right to ignore requests from the bride, and does not answer her phone or email! Accommodating in the beginning until she receives payment then goes M.I.A. Alyssa SUCKS! Post from the Bride: Awful overall experience. 3 months of zero contact on their end (this was the last 3 months leading up til the wedding). One month before the wedding I finally heard back and received no apology only excuse after excuse. I was told that she had sooooo many weddings and catering events that she is just so busy. I should have been made to feel like I was the only wedding and the only bride. I was told that if i really needed to contact her i should have googled her phone number (mind you she had told me she’s never really in the office and emailnwas best!) When confirming everything in February I was told the benches around the ceremony space would be done and would match the stump and board seating in place only to find that due to a lack of time on her part she ordered benches that look nothing like the original seating. Was also told there would be plenty of seating once done but instead most of my guests had to stand. I was told my rehearsal day and time was good (after begging for her to let me know it was so my party could take off of work) then one week before the rehearsal I was told the Friday bride would have to let me know if that time worked since she gets to set up the day before. There was an issue with chairs the day of (the rental company came to get them and told my coordinator they were not paid for). I paid Rodes directly for the chairs and I could not reach anyone. There were 2 helpful people and that was the new assistant (Kaila) who tried really hard to fix the damage done and Shelly the bar tender who was amazing and super sweet and accommodating!

very frustrating when trying to plan a wedding). All in all it is a nice venue. Definitely could be run better tho.

. The barn is rustic and cozy. The outdoor ceremony space is beautiful. The staff we friendly and accommodating. The food was delicious.

d is out of this world.

eager to help us with everything. She really listened to our ideas, made us feel at ease, and guided us through any decisions we had to make. We brought all of our decorations and she and her staff set everything up perfectly! It was gorgeous and even better than I envisioned. The outdoor areas were beautiful and everyone enjoyed being able to sit by the fire, play games, and then go in for a dance. Everyone loved the food as well! We really could not have had a better experience, and we can't thank Alyssa and her staff enough!

r week and still no reply. I used two different email accounts and the first one i used never got a response back at all! This is definitely a place I’d be a little scared to deal with if they can’t even return an email!

delicious as their staff is friendly. Furthermore, they have the most talented of staff who help Alyssa in creating the perfect environment for those magical days or evenings no matter what the theme of the wedding, the colors and the season call for... Very well coordinated company indeed. Also in Rodes Barn & Catering establishments is Rodes Coop which you can eat in or order ahead for office parties or picnics or whatever gathering you are planning.

azing. she is so easy going and let's you do anything to make your day perfect. wouldn't have picked anywhere else.

everyone is raving over the entire wedding! Excellent choice !

event was no longer going to take place and they refused to give the full deposit amount to her sister as requested by the original bride for her event. Alyssa would only honor half!?!? Which I still don't understand why!?! That makes no sense??? The deposit has never been refunded and Alyssa is no longer answering calls or emails from them. Complete lack of compassion and Alyssa has handled it in the most disgraceful and unprofessional manner! Don't waste your money with this venue there are far better in the area! Give the rodio's their FULL deposit back and rectify this situation!!!!!

ds who are getting married here in the future. The price of the barn is extremely reasonable compared to others. I couldn't be happier with the outcome of my wedding here, it was truly the best day of my life.
