The Old Barn at Brown County

is just gorgeous. How it’s nestled back into the hills makes for a more intimate setting away from the hustle and bustle, which is exactly what we were looking for. Darla and Brian are wonderful to work with and made our life easy as we planned this wedding. They were always quick to respond and help us through any questions we had. We agree that the Old Barn at Brown County was one of the top highlights of our wedding, and we’re glad that we chose it for our special day!

c. We were honestly worried that Brian and Darla would want to move the date of our wedding, we wanted to keep it the same as much as we could (even if that meant sacrificing the amount of guests we were allowed to have). Upon speaking with them, they asked us if we could keep that date because they are a small business and could go out of business if everyone reschedules to next year. I noticed the negative review below about the wedding held during the pandemic. They didn't mention that The Old Barn at Brown County is a small business and that if they let everyone do what that bride tried to do, there wouldn't be a venue to have the wedding at. After working with Brian and Darla a LOT over the 2 years preparing for our wedding, I know they are not as rude or directly inconsiderate as that review made them sound. My husband and I were in an odd situation for our finances and actually had to wait until about 4 months before the wedding to be able to pay it all off (I was in college still and my husband was just starting our career so we didn't have a lot of money). Brian and Darla were so amazingly easy to work with and I'm so grateful that our faith was rightly put in them. This pandemic wasn't easy for anyone trying to have their wedding but they really took a lot of stress off our shoulders. Aside from the pandemic related details of the wedding. Their package can't be beat. We got both cabins for our wedding party and we loved them both. They were both cozy and made the start and end of the day so easy going. They clean for you, set everything up for you, tear all their items down, and provide parking guidance for the day of your wedding for $7000. We looked around at other barns within 100 miles of the barn and NONE of them provided a deal like they did. They were the best value we could find. Our wedding was formal but felt more casual and it was very easy to pull off with this venue. We couldn't be happier with how our day turned out. We highly recommend it!!

d paid the entire amount off—a full seven months in advance of the wedding date. Then COVID-19 hit. In March, a full six months ahead of the date and out of great concern, she decided to reschedule her wedding to 2021. The guest list included many seriously immune, compromised family and friends—many from out-of-state. When she contacted Brian (owner) to reschedule her wedding date, he refused and said to “wait and see how it goes”. She suggested someone else could have her date, Brian was not interested. As time went on, she contacted him again and he still refused. This was a very upsetting and emotional time for her. He told her he would make her pay full price for a 2021 Saturday with out reimbursement for her 2020 Saturday because (by this time) “five months is too late notice to rebook the date”, then Brian ended up double booking her original weekend. Because of that, she was charged an extra $100 for tent removal. Normally, it would have been removed on Monday at no extra charge. It should have been an exciting happy time for any bride-to-be. There was much heartache and many tears, he ruined it for her. I would NOT recommend The Old Barn at Brown County to any person or wedding party. The owners have no compassion or consideration. They are greedy people. All they had to do was reschedule. The wedding took place with much concern and lots of gnats. And a large number of older out-of-state relatives were not able to travel to the wedding, due to Covid restrictions.

ing. Planning during a pandemic can be stressful but they were so assuring and made accommodations for our guests. The barn is absolutely beautiful, you really need minimal effort to decorate the space. The tables, lighting, and drapery really dress the place up. There's also a nice seating area in the upstairs loft for your guests. Along with the Big Easy Log Cabin we rented the additional cabin that is up the hill for the groomsmen and that was the best idea! The cabins are so spacious and it's nice to have lodging for you, your spouse, and your bridal party for the ENTIRE weekend, it really makes preparing a breeze. You truly get your money's worth with the barn and the cabin. I would HIGHLY recommend the Old Barn to anyone looking for a barn wedding. It truly can't be beat!

The Old Barn was so perfect!

communicated amazingly with the planning process and got back to me with all my strange questions. I appreciated all the care and connection with us. You can tell that they love their venue and it creates a warm and inviting environment for everyone! The barn was absolutely stunning and everyone couldn't stop talking about the look and the party! We also stayed at the Big Easy and it was SO NICE having it right there and easy to get back if we needed to put somewhere away or someone needed to cool down. If you want a barn wedding, BOOK HERE!! You won't regret it!

y and were wonderful to work with from beginning to end. They went above and beyond to make sure the day went perfect, and when it rained they were there to help! You will not regret choosing the Old Barn at Brown County! We can’t wait to return to the cabins for our anniversary!

is is where we wanted our daughters wedding to be held. Then, we met Darla and Brian and they were fantastic! They keep the Old Barn and property immaculate. When we arrived at the venue, the day of the wedding, they had everything ready for us exactly the way we wanted it. I could not have asked for better owners to work with or a more beautiful day that we had at the Old Barn.

ace to a top-notch venue. I loved having multiple spaces for the guests to mingle during the reception - inside the barn, up in the loft, by the fire pit out back. It was truly a dream and I can't recommend it enough. The owners were so friendly and helpful throughout the entire planning process. 5 stars all around.

have to stress on the big day. We have received so many compliments about the venue from our guests and we could not be happier we chose The Old Barn at Brown County for such an important day in our lives. Thank you so much Darla and Brian! We love The Old Barn!

th anything you may need! I couldn't say one bad thing about our experience with The Old Barn and I would highly recommend it, you won't be sorry!

to plan out the details and savored every minute of our day. We only wish we could do it all over again! Can't say enough wonderful things about our experience from start to finish. The moment we stepped into the venue we knew it was the one and it certainly didn't disappoint! Rustic, secluded, and everything you need all in one place!
