Wow. Where do I even begin- The Keller Brick Barn is absolutely beautiful. There are gorgeous string lights, candles, and other decor all around the barn, that give off that rustic...
/farm style vibe. There are many decor items that she will gladly let you borrow. There are beautiful flowers surrounding the barn and a cute little out house for the groom's suite and a lovely bride's suite inside. During our wedding planning, we knew we wanted something more rustic/sweet. This was the second venue we toured and we immediately fell in love. We canceled the other tours we had lined up for the week because we just knew "this was it." As soon as we met Pam and her husband, we could tell they would do anything they could to make our big day perfect. Pam was very responsive to all emails and questions we had. She also provided suggestions for catering and other vendors. She is so wiling to help in any way she can, all you have to do is ask! We chose the weekend package, which allowed the decorators and I to set up early, to make it less hectic the day of. We were also able to host a nice brunch with our friends and family the Sunday after the wedding. In addition, Pam went above and beyond by making sure all the LED candles/string lights were on prior to the reception. This barn will forever hold a special place in my heart. We cannot recommend The Keller Brick Barn enough!!

I’m sharing my experience touring this venue so other couples can make an informed decision.
I arrived 30 minutes early for my scheduled tour and ended up waiting an additional 30...
minutes past the start time. The person who showed us the barn was not the person I had been communicating with, and there was no notice of the delay or change.
While waiting, I learned that a significant portion of the property is actually a private residence not affiliated with the venue, which was never explained beforehand. I spoke directly with the homeowners, who confirmed this, which made the experience confusing. I attempted to contact the main venue contact and her mother (who helps run the venue) multiple times with no response. Eventually, the owner’s husband arrived to conduct the tour.
I was previously told a county sheriff is required if alcohol is served, but I was not informed until the tour that the couple must pay $60 per hour out of pocket for this requirement.
Overall, the lack of communication, late arrival, unclear property boundaries, and undisclosed fees made this experience feel unprofessional and disorganized. I left feeling like my time was not respected.
