Rustic Grace Events is truly a hidden gem, located just outside Dayton, Ohio in the farmlands of Darke County. The historic barn has been newly renovated to a modern look and feel ...
while preserving the beauty of the barn’s age. The farm grounds had plenty of areas for guests explore, great photo ops, and antique tractors to view. We especially enjoyed the custom made bar area as the decorations, lighting, and ambiance created a unique area to converse and enjoy beverages. The second level of the barn also provided many spots to overlook the dance floor and tables. Our special day couldn’t have gone better. If you’re looking for a beautiful, private, and peaceful venue for your wedding day, we would highly recommend Rustic Grace!

We had a wonderful experience at Rustic Grace! The venue was stunning and had so many beautiful spots for pictures (I especially love my pictures taken in the woods). The bridal su...
ite was perfect for getting ready—plenty of seating, mirrors, a TV, and a private bathroom. All my guests raved about how beautiful the barn was with all the fairy lights and little elegant details.
Jackee, the venue coordinator, was absolutely amazing! She eased my nerves and made sure all my vendors were comfortable and knew where to go. As a more "hands-off" bride without strong decor preferences, I appreciated how she went out of her way to show me different table settings and decoration ideas for the ceremony and reception. It's obvious that she's a seasoned wedding coordinator.
I couldn't have asked for a better venue!

having time the day before to decorate and rehearse, to having all day on the wedding day. You never feel rushed and can enjoy the breathtaking bridal and groom suites to get ready with all of your party. The scenery across the street in the woods gives you so many options for photos. I highly recommend this venue. I would get married over and over again if I could relive it in the most charming rustic barn with so much space for all of your guests!
