About this vendor
The Barn at Holly Farm, a rustic barn wedding venue, is set back from a quiet country road on the outskirts of Bothell, Washington. This vintage, refurbished horse barn is the ‘crown jewel’ of a 17 acres working farm, where an equine center, farm animals, lush green space, flowers and herb gardens all provide a quiet backdrop to your celebration. There are close to 100 years of history contained in the soaring architecture of the barn’s old growth timber beams. The farm is located conveniently close to an urban center but with bucolic peacefulness for your intimate ceremony. If you love the outdoors, are drawn to the country and are looking for an intimate ceremony space with natural wonder, you will fall in love with The Barn at Holly Farm.
The Barn at Holly Farm offers a stunning lofted ceremony and reception space with 28-foot arches. Several unique outdoor spaces are also available for your special ceremony. The Barn loft offers an open and flexible floor plan that seats up to 200 guests. With its exposed beams and simply finished woodwork, it is both rustic and elegant. The Barn is also outfitted with a prep kitchen for your catering team and a bridal suite and men’s den for you and your fiancé to prepare before the main event. Outside, a rolling bar on the patio is available for your guests to enjoy cocktails or casual outdoor dining. There are lots of areas on the farm for you, your beloved and wedding party for timeless photos. In addition, several locations await for your intimate ceremony including; the ‘Loft’, the south lawn, the “Memory Making Maple Tree”, the tranquil “Tall Trees Field”, “Farm Yard”, "South Lawn" and our “Picnic yard” whose shaded lawn provides a picturesque view of horses in their paddocks.

TERRIBLE venue management under the guise of a beautiful space!
In short, three months after signing with The Barn at Holly Farm we were told management would rather start a year of self-initiated renovations than honor their contract with us. Their decision not only affected us, but at least nine other couples who had booked weddings there too.
For my fiancé and me, this left us with less than 7 months before the wedding date to find a new venue and re-plan our entire event. It took over a month for us to find a new space that could accommodate our wedding size indoors. To receive a full refund, we were expected to sign a document that stated we wouldn't make any comments which "may, directly or indirectly, disparage" The Barn at Holly Farm (obviously we did not accept those terms). It then took over a month to receive the funds for The Barn's breach of contract.
I hope no other couple has to experience The Barn at Holly Farm's mismanagement and the nightmare experience they caused at least 10 couples in 2021!
I highly recommend this venue! I had my wedding on April 13th, 2019 with 64 people and it couldn't have been any better! It was raining and it was a little cold outside. The barn is almost 100 years old and the space that you have access, you just cannot beat it. An unfortunate event happened two days before our wedding date with another venue and we had only one day to look for another venue to have our wedding. Karmel and her team came to our rescue! She was so helpful and so willing to make this the best day of our lives. She gave helpful suggestions and her spirit helped ease my mind.. She was full of joy, hope.. such an angel. It was the best day of my life with the help of her team and my family coming together. I've never felt so stressed/so blessed in my life!
The Barn is so beautiful. There is a bridal suite that my girls loved being in! There are options for the men to be in their room as well. Upstairs is where we had our reception and ceremony. She did mention that because we only found her within one day of our wedding day that heating might be an issue. The barns heaters and her additional heaters helped kept us warm but the overall barn was a little bit cold. This is something that can be fixed with the right amount of time given to prepare the venue for a wedding. Again, we found Karmel on a thursday night pretty much and had the wedding on saturday. No complaints there! Just wanted to let you know to keep in mind which she also informed us before booking.
This venue worked with us and our situation. We were so blessed to have such excellent customer service. Thank you Barn at Holly Farm for allowing us to have our wedding here. You felt like family to us. We so appreciate you.
