The most beautiful venue I’ve ever seen!! We had the best wedding with the help from the sweetest, most dependable, and most accommodating owner. Melissa Wells bent over backwards to give me advice, suggestions and opinions when I needed them most and made the planning and decorating so easy & smooth! She lifted the weight off of my shoulders when I couldn’t hold anymore on my own & I am so grateful that she made this experience better than I could’ve ever imagined. This venue has acres upon acres of land for the best pictures and the cutest home for the wedding party to spend their morning. If there were more than 5 stars, I would rate this venue at the highest possible.

Melissa and her venue was everything we dreamed of and more. We booked over a year in advance and from the time of booking til the day of the wedding Melissa was so accommodating and helpful with every detail. The natural beauty of the venue and the ability to do everything there (bridal suites, rehearsal and dinner, ceremony, reception) was a bonus! We love The Barn at McCall Springs! Highly recommended!

The Barn at McCall Springs was the perfect venue for our wedding! It has beautiful scenery and backdrop for amazing photos. We loved being able to have the venue starting on Thursday because helped us with early set up. It was also great because we were able to choose our own vendors for the reception. We were able to have the rehearsal dinner at the venue as well. The house is the per spot to get ready the day of our wedding. Melissa was great to work with. We would highly recommend booking The Barn at McCall Springs.

The Barn at McCall Springs was the perfect venue for my dream fairytale wedding! We had booked our date about a year and a half in advance of our September 2020 wedding. When Covid hit Melissa was always quick to ease my worries and concerns. The wedding turned out perfect and so many of our guests commented on how perfect the venue is set up and how it was the most beautiful wedding they had ever attended. We are forever grateful to Melissa and this beautiful venue for making our dreams come true!

I loved this venue! It’s beautiful and easy access to get to! Melissa was pleasant to work with and helped me set up my dream wedding. I had so many options for my wedding whether I wanted it outside under the pavilion, inside the barn, or just out In the grass. We ended up doing our wedding in the grass and had tables and chairs set up under the pavilion and the barn. It was perfect! The barn is easy to accommodate any type of wedding! Highly recommend this venue!

Absolutely beautiful venue! The views and indoor/outdoor settings were so perfect...no need for much decor. Loved this venue because there were so many different options for set-up. Also very convenient location (right off the parkway) made it great for guests traveling from all over Central KY. They were so fun & easy to work with! It was the best day! I can’t imagine a more perfect setting for our wedding.

Melissa was so great! Very helpful and such a delight to work with. With COVID being a crazy year she definitely helped us to be able to celebrate our special day. The venue is beautiful and everyone is still talking about how beautiful it is 2 weeks later. I highly recommend. You don’t have to even decorate so much because it’s already beautiful. Also very affordable!

Working with Melissa from beginning to end was so easy! We booked her venue initially a month after we got engaged in 2017. Throughout the two years, the venue underwent many changes. Melissa let my husband and I visit frequently just to see what changes had been made. I loved that Melissa let you pick whatever caterer you wanted. The week before the wedding, my husband and I met up with Melissa to discuss how many tables, chairs, linens, and signs were needed. When I arrived, we had the correct amount of tables, chairs, linens ready to go. She also offered signs for us to borrow for the day of our wedding. On the day of the wedding, Melissa was there tidying up the bathrooms, making sure that I had everything I needed for a flawless day. At the last minute, we added something to our ceremony. Melissa was quick to find a solution for a table for us to use during the ceremony. She was always available to communicate with. I couldn't imagine having our day anywhere else. Melissa was an absolute dream to work with. We got so many compliments on the beauty of this venue! We loved our day here and couldn't imagine getting married anywhere else.

I am so glad we booked our wedding at this venue! It was absolutely beautiful and so convenient for everyone. Melissa was very easy going to work with , so nice and understanding. The venue is breath taking and our photographer knew how to capture our wedding pictures with this venue. The wedding venue did not need much as Melissa had everything to the lights, beautiful decorations already set up plus the beauty of the barn and pavilion don't need much decorations. The sunset is beautiful if you are going to have a late wedding. I would highly recommend this venue!

We had our wedding here in September and it was absolutely perfect! This venue is beyond beautiful without even adding decorations. Melissa was so helpful with everything. There is both an indoor and covered outdoor area for the ceremony and a suite to get ready at on site. The barn is in a great location just off the interstate and easy for guests to find. We could not have picked a better venue for our wedding and would recommend this place to anyone!

The Barn at McCall Springs could not have been more perfect for the happiest day of my life! The venue is absolutely stunning! The barn is already so beautiful inside, it didn’t require much decorating on my part for the reception. The view for the ceremony was beautiful, overlooking the pond, and the house was perfect for getting ready in for the big day. I can’t say enough about Melissa. She truly exceeded my expectations! She is so easy to work with and was always accessible and accommodating to our needs. We got married in July and we are still receiving comments from guests on how beautiful the venue was! I will always recommend The Barn at McCall Springs!

This wedding venue is perfect! Melissa is so accommodating and makes sure everything is perfect for the big day. We were able to decorate Thursday so we weren’t rushed on Friday night. The grounds are absolutely gorgeous and so are all of the vicinities. We took advantage of the bridal suite (that came in very handy), the pavilion, and the barn. Everyone complimented our venue and pictures (ours and guests) have turned out beautiful (especially at sunset)! You WILL NOT be disappointed in picking this venue for your special day!

We got married 6 months after we got engaged. We planned this whole wedding from MN without even visiting the venue before we booked it, and when we got there everything fell perfectly into place! Our wedding day was even more beautiful than we could have ever imagined! The house is SO CONVENIENT, I could go out and check on things in the middle of everyone getting ready. Our photos are beautiful and our guests can't stop raving about how gorgeous the setting was. There was plenty of room in the barn for everything (we even had to move out bartenders inside due to rain during the reception and it didn't infringe on space at all), and we had yard games set up in the lawn right outside the barn so it felt like the party just kept extending. HIGHLY recommend for anyone who wants the most beautiful setting and convenience of having everything in one spot!

Our wedding was better than we could have ever imagined, and The Barn at McCall was a huge part in that! The venue is gorgeous and makes for wonderful photos. Melissa is so easy to work with and is very kind. She works hard to make sure the bride and groom are happy. We had the venue from Thursday through early Sunday, which made preparing and setting up super easy. The Barn has everything you could want and more! If we got married again, we would 100% book The Barn again.

The barn was the most perfect wedding venue! Melissa was so easy to work with and made everything much less stressful. They put so much hard work into the barn, and it is so beautiful you don’t even need that much decoration! It was so convenient to be able to get ready at our venue, and the house to get ready in is also beautiful! The barn is in a convenient location, especially if you have family from out of town (Best Western is 5 minutes away.) I received countless compliments from my guests saying it’s one of the most beautiful venues they’ve seen! I had the most perfect experience here!

There is really no way to put into words how perfect this venue really is. Melissa is an angel to work with! Being able to get ready, have the ceremony, and the reception all in one place was wonderful! The farmhouse is glamorous with just the right amount of Southern charm. The barn is beautiful inside and out. We held our ceremony outside because the pond and the landscaping is just perfect. I would recommend The Barn at McCall Springs to any bride. Perfect venue for your perfect day!

The Barn at McCall Springs was the perfect place for our wedding! Melissa was so accommodating, professional, and easy to work with. The Barn is in the perfect location. The beautiful farm setting behind the pavilion was the perfect backdrop to the outdoor wedding we wanted. We had our ceremony under the pavilion and the reception was conveniently just feet away in the barn which is beautifully decorated with chandeliers and offers plenty of space to accommodate guests. The farmhouse is also very cute and allowed the girls and guys to both spend the day hanging out and getting ready without risking the bride and groom ever seeing each other! This venue is gorgeous and offers so many different options for your big day! Hands down, I recommend this venue!

We were the first wedding at the barn (10/21/2017). We got engaged and wanted to get married in 4-5 months. We looked at all of the local venues and most were booked or wanted to charge us an insane amount of money. Then we caught wind that this barn was in the works, so we reached out to Melissa. We booked this venue while it was being renovated and Melissa said she could have the place transformed in time for our wedding. Melissa sent us updates through every step of the process. The week of the wedding, Melissa and her team worked around the clock to make sure the barn was complete in time for our big day. Not only was the venue complete, but it was absolutely MAGICAL and far exceeded our expectations. Most of our guests had never been to a barn wedding and we are STILL receiving compliments on how beautiful the venue was. We ended up getting SO much more for our money (which never happens in wedding planning) :) and I feel like this venue was an absolute STEAL. From the barn itself to the farmhouse we got ready in, I couldn't have asked for a more perfect experience. A huge thank you to Melissa for making our wedding a dream come true and for working your butt off to make sure our entire day was perfect! 10/10 WOULD HIGHLY RECOMMEND.

My husband and I absolutely loved our experience with The Barn. I would recommend this venue to anyone because of the great experience that we had. It's so stressful trying to plan a wedding (well 'your' perfect wedding) and not actually pull your hair out. But Melissa was super helpful throughout the entire process. I remember needing to know the exact length of the tables to the floor so that I could order my table cloths online and she went in and measured for me. I remember after our wedding was over my husband and I both looked at each other and said "I don't think this day could have gone any better." I really owe all of that to the behind the scenes work that went into my special day. Weddings are more than just picking out your colors and table cloths, or what decorations to display. They are about the people that work hard for you, the ones that stay after hours to help to make your wedding day the most special day.
