Rushwood Barn on the Farm
Celebrate your wedding day with your loved ones at Rushwood Barn in Rochester, NY, an ideal location to make a lifetime of memories. Every step of the way, the choice is yours; from ceremonies under the bright blue skies to the reception dinner inside the historic Great Barn. The DJ, the cuisine, the bar, and the florals, everything is up to you. Professional staff at the Rushwood will be there to put it all together.
All Together in One Place
There are four incredible locations to choose from for an unforgettable ceremony, each one presenting something truly unique. The gazebo on Chapel Hill is dedicated to the traditionalists and offers a tranquil setting overlooking the rolling hills of Lima. Picture-perfect photographs are guaranteed, with views of Bristol Mountain filling the background. Alternatively, the Great Barn, with its first floor, balcony, and loft, provides a wonderful choice for you and your partner, as well as the convenience of celebrating each stage of the wedding without travelling from place to place. The on-site team at Rushwood Barn will be on hand to help you set up and decorate each location to ensure the day runs smoothly from beginning to end.
Everything You Could Ever Need
Inside the Great Barn, you will find a fabulous bar area, an air-conditioned bridal suite, private and public bathrooms, and so much more. Parking is available on site behind the barn, meaning guests can relax knowing their property is secure. There are also several hotels located within ten minutes of Rushwood Barn, enough to accommodate the largest of wedding parties. For more information on all things ceremony and reception-related, give the team at the barn a call and book your place at this dreamy wedding venue.

You'll hear from me first, and I'm the one you'll keep hearing from: tours, questions, planning conversations, and all the little things that come up on the way to your wedding weekend.
One of my favorite parts of this job is helping couples figure out what actually fits. Rushwood has a few different ways to shape the day or weekend, depending on your date, the guest house, your people, your priorities, and the kind of experience you want.
No two weddings here look quite the same, and that is one of my favorite things about this place.
I keep a flexible schedule for tours, I’m easy to reach, and I really do love showing couples around.
Come see it.
