The Old Blue Rooster Event Center

er barn venues and it even comes with the bar and bartenders (open bar for a fee). The property at the barn was absolutely stunning. Even though it rained, there were still plenty of spaces available to take pictures! The bartenders day of, even had fun with us! They let us bring in a shot ski and were laughing and interacting with us the entire time. Definitely ask about having Jenn with JCM Events to coordinate your big day! Overall I would actually give OBR and the staff 10/5 stars because I am honestly that glad we had our wedding here. It was absolutely a day to remember and the people and the place made it as wonderful as it was.

Their venues are beautiful and offer so many wonderful places to take wedding portraits. We also loved staying in the bridal suites with our friends. So many great things about this place!

guests commented to me how pretty the venue was too. We would recommend Old Blue Rooster to anyone looking for a venue!

plan. We had many compliments on the venue. The bartenders were awesome, decorating was easy, and we couldn’t have asked for a better day. There is also an area outside for the ceremony, but due to a December wedding we did not use that space.

de the day absolutely perfect! We rented the Lodge for the bridesmaids to get ready and I would do it all over again. The outdoor venue area is easily accessible and absolutely gorgeous, the inside worked perfectly - we rented our own white chairs and it ended up being so wonderful. 10/10!

ck to answer questions, make changes to our plan as needed, and always tried hard to accommodate any requests we had. Our experience with Lorraine alone would have been enough for me to recommend this venue to anyone & everyone! However, the night of our wedding, we got to meet even more staff who helped us set up and clean up and ran the bar for the event, and they were just as wonderful! I am so incredibly grateful to OBR for the perfect wedding experience. A few tips on the Barn: 1. Rent the lodge! It’s worth the extra money to have extra space right there on the property! And it’s a great getaway space if you need a break or a quiet moment alone with your new spouse. 2. They have a liquor license, so you must purchase alcohol through the venue and cannot bring outside alcohol. But they have so many options! & when we realized the night before that we wanted champagne for mimosas during our morning of getting ready, it was so easy for me to reach out and ask them to have some available for us and add it to our bar tab! 3. Ask them about their associate vendors! They have a Day of Coordinator/Planner that does weddings there all the time, so she is very knowledgeable about the venue & best way to do things. They also work closely with a linens company, that was so hassle-free! They had the linens there for us when we arrived, and all we had to do at the end of the night was leave them in a bag at the venue! Both of these vendors were extremely affordable and made all the difference in our day! 4. Don’t second guess it, just book here!! They have two beautiful locations to choose from, & the incredible staff will make your day so stress free and wonderful. You won’t regret it!

ields and cornfields. So cute! Hope to shoot another wedding here again.

of photo opportunities. The prep area in the back of the bar is perfect for storing/prepping food. Staff was responsive and punctual always. We'll definitely use the venue in the future.

were absolutely beautiful. My guests raved about what a gorgeous venue I chose. Everything was flexible so I was able to create the perfect day for my husband and I. Cant thank them enough!

t experience with this venue!

y here!

right to the venue. Highly recommend booking this hidden gem!

ridge, you will need to provide everything else. Bring your own spatulas, spoons, utensils, etc.

reception at.

reception turned out to be perfect ! The ladies that worked the bar were wonderful , nailed our signature drinks, and everyone kept telling us what a good job they were doing and how beautiful the venue was ! We couldn’t be happier ! Thank you!

enue is beautiful inside and outside. I would highly recommend this venue for any of your party needs.

r wedding. We had to hold the ceremony inside and it was still beautiful.

e process less stressful and helped us bring our wedding visions to life.

ing up later. Many guests commented on how sweet and helpful Lorraine was on the day of the wedding as well. The venue was beautiful and fit our day perfectly.

nor, which as you can guess for a bride is very convenient!! I would highly recommend this company to any bride, especially seeing as they have two venues, both reasonably priced and perfect for any type of wedding!

ue. We have loved working with Lorraine and this venue that we’ve had other events here and we are also booked for our daughters first birthday here. We will definitely continue to work with Lorraine for our important events to come. I definitely hit the jackpot when I found this venue. Thank you Lorraine for everything you have done for my family and making our day so amazing.

ped make our day the best! We had many compliments about the location and highly recommend The Old Blue Rooster to anyone looking for a magical venue!

than I imagined it could be ❤️

c vibe too. Our wedding turned out so charming and whimsical, and the event staff was great and very personal. Highly recommend!

nd email me right away. I can’t wait until we get all of our pictures back so that we can share them and everyone can see how beautiful it really is!

k not only with my budget, but with what I would need the day of. Even things I never would have thought of! Jessica was with me the day of and was so helpful if I need anything. Overall- We are completely satisfied with the entire process but especially our day! We couldn't have asked for a better venue.

ful suggestions to personalize everything for us! Everything was perfect for our wedding! Our bartenders were fantastic at our wedding and everything looked so beautiful! Air conditioning for a mid July wedding was a must and the lodge was a perfect space to get ready in! Our photographer, videographer, and makeup artist loved the lodge and the location with all the natural light. I can't say enough good things about this venue and their staff!

ave to buy through them because of their liquor license. Can work with ALL budgets. Wish I could replay my wedding day so I could relive it again at this beautiful space.

dding here! The scenery was gorgeous, there was plenty of space, and the staff was amazing. All of our vendors had plenty of space, there were plenty of tables for our guests and food and vendors. They had linens on site to be rented as well as a drink trough, a drink stand with plenty of drinks and ice, and beautiful decor like a hoop for greenery. I am so pleased!

commodating and worked so hard to make sure our day was perfect. Lorraine was quick to return any calls and texts and made our wedding planning process a breeze. We hired Alisa, our coordinator, for all our day of wedding needs. I'm 100% positive we wouldn't have made it through our wedding day without her. She discreetly handled any issues to ensure that we were fully focused on having the most fun. I will forever cherish our wedding day at OBR and highly recommend this venue to any future brides. You won't regret :)

out and Lorraine always checked in with me and was very responsive with my emails. The staff is very friendly and made everything about the day perfect. I would recommend the Old Blue Rooster to anyone! If I could give it more than 5 stars I would!

staff was so helpful and flexible with our needs. They made sure everything ran smoothly. Highly recommend using this space and working with this staff!

ble to respond to any of my emails within the day I sent it. The venue is beautiful and super affordable. The day we set up, we realized we were missing a table and Alyssa was our go to person for that day and the day of the wedding. She was able to work so well with us and rolled with everything we asked for and even made suggestion that made our day even more perfect. I think it would be hard to find a better, more reliable staff for our wedding. There's no way we could thank them enough!

an. The various package options helped us decide on the venue to fit within our budget needs and the availability of extra items for rental use came to our rescue as well. They were flexible with meeting times and able to keep us on track for everything to run smoothly. Use of a bridal suite was also an option and was very handy for prep the day of and comfortable for relaxing after a very busy day.

favorite thing was flexibility in making it our wedding and exactly how we wanted it rather than having to only select from a list of caterers or vendors. A special touch that blew my husband and I away was that their staff took the time to write a card for us and add it to our box :) You can’t go wrong choosing this for your big day!!!

asked her a million questions and she was always super helpful. We got so many compliments on our venue and wonderful staff members. I would recommend OBR to all of my friends.

orry about the details during the day of the wedding.

uickly. She went above for us! We also used Alissa as our day of coordinator and she was amazing. She handled every tiny detail for us! She even handled a linen problem by going to pick them up for me! I am so incredibly happy with how smoothly the day went and the whole planning process because the blue rooster went above and beyond for us!

t made it tremendously convenient to have my hair and make up girls come to us. We spent the whole day getting ready and enjoying time together instead of worrying about running around and being certain places at specific times. Lorraine, the manager of the venue, was very helpful that day as well. She was helpful the entire journey of my wedding planning. When I needed questions or wanted to go over and look at the venue so I could come up with decoration ideas she was always willing to work with me so I could see the venue. She made the planning a little less stressful because come on now, wedding planning is nerve wracking because you just want the PERFECT wedding. My ceremony was so beautiful and the reception was fun and everyone had a great time. So many people told me how much they loved the venue and how remarkable it turned out. I had an incredible experience at this venue and I would recommend this venue to all of you that are looking at this review 😊

with me and helped me as much as she could with a quick response. They had everything we needed all in the venue the night before the wedding. The venue and ceremony areas are beautiful. We loved everything about this venue and the staff. Also, every venue personnel we had contact were extremely friendly and professional.

coordinated the day of, making sure our vendors were set up and ready to go. The Barn was such a hit with our guests. We received many compliments on our venue. I would recommend the OBR to anyone who would like to have a rustic feel to their wedding, but elegance at the same time. We loved OBR.

would be about one of the bartenders, but it was minor in the grand scheme of things. I would definitely recommend this event space to everyone. It is beautiful, affordable, and Lorraine was so helpful!

PER nice and very convenient! Also, Lorraine was very helpful along the way. Very quick to answer any questions, and made last minute changes for me with no problem!

ecial and unique. From including wine from my family's vineyard, to helping me find an emergency salon when my hair and makeup cancelled morning of, these people were completely wonderful and I could not recommend them more! The ceremony place was beautiful- I was worried about all of the nuts and shells that fell onto the aisle, but they were completely cleared off, as was the rest of the space. The reception space was perfect with lighting and draping fabric- the little details created an incredible, unforgettable picture. Thank you, thank you, THANK YOU for such an amazing weekend!

OBR which is so beneficial & cost saving. Plus they have a lot of wedding decor that you can rent and it's much more cost effective than having to buy all the decor that you only use one time. The venue is stunning and my guests had the best time!! ❤

delight! So easy to work with, I highly recommend Old Blue Rooster.

the cake was. I would highly recommend this venue for your special day! The outdoor ceremony area is gorgeous; it requires little to no decor and seats plenty of people. Plus there are plenty of areas for nice outdoor photos everywhere. The indoor area looked very nice by itself; you only had to add your own little touches to make it beautiful. And they even let you rent a lot of stuff from them so you don’t have to purchase a bunch of things that you will never use again. I also like the “packages” they have; it makes it your choice to do as much or as little as you want on that day.

st texted them and they always answered. I would recommend them to everyone. We were on a tight budget and their prices are great

y fairly priced. Not sure where the negative reviews are coming from, but the staff we worked with were nothing but friendly and helpful!

tiful with the walkway newly paved and the wooden archway at the front. We couldn't have been any happier with our venue selection and would choose it again for future events.

ue, check this place out in person! The photos online do NOT do this place justice! I'll be back next June with an update on how the next year and how my big day goes. :)

elpful with whatever we needed the couple days we were there. The communication throughout the entire process was great. Best of all, this venue is absolutely beautiful and you don't have to spend an arm and a leg to get married. We could easily stay under our budget. I highly recommend this venue for anyone looking to get married!

outdoor wedding and still love it. The outdoor part of the venue originally was all grass which made me nervous but it is now a beautiful cobblestone walkway so if you are worried about it, don't be. It was beautiful and the new arbor that replaced the metal half gazebo thing is gorgeous as well. Lorraine was amazing to work with on every level - she was quick to return texts, calls, or emails and was extremely flexible in every way. We literally changed our rehearsal dinner time three times that night (within like 30 minutes of our original time mind you) and she was very very accommodating. When we were clearly frazzled over setting up appetizers the day of she and her colleague helped my super stressed mother with the process. The two of them were also our bartenders and they were extremely nice to everyone and even extended the bar time last minute because we hadn't even come close to hitting our limit. The bar service itself is super wonderful and the margarita machine they have was a big hit with our guests. I would highly recommend this venue and encourage you to ignore the one star reviews from the disgruntled customers. Lorraine is amazing, the venue is beautiful, that is all.

no one could walk anywhere in the mud. The bride was busy speaking to the caterer, while the manager was tapping her foot and pointing to her watch telling us she would have to charge us for the extra time. I understand it was in the contract but there was no reason for the interruption. Or she could have spoken to the groom/parents. The next day we got a message saying hay had been laid down and they would not be charging us. Wedding day: The brides dress was covered in mud as she walked down the aisle. (If you want a clean dress, this is not the place for you!) The owner used profanity to our bridal party when she approached us during our photography session. Apparently, her wedding manager had not told her we had paid to take photos on the site, so we were kicked off the main site by the bridal suite. Communication was horrible with these people. Profanity was unacceptable. Even our limo driver said he had never had such a horrible experience with wedding venue staff before. I would STAY AWAY from this venue.

mazing and SO quick to respond to texts and calls. She took care of my every need prior to our wedding day! Her staff was extremely helpful on the day of, and were available to answer questions and make adjustments! I would highly recommend OBR to anyone who is looking for a venue with the freedom of choosing your OWN caterer (we had Chipotle!), and for a larger group! I am so thankful we had our wedding here!

dn't allow us to go the night before the wedding to set up and rehears without wanting to charge an arm and a leg for every extra minute we were there past ONE hour!! Now you tell me how it's possible to get decorations up and get the rehearsal done within an hour? With that being said we had to get up early go to the venue and put everything together the day of. When we went to fill the vases up with water for the center pieces , it looked gross because they forgot to mention that with a full running bar the water was straight from the pond! How gross! On top of all that they wanted to charge another arm and a leg for cleaning up the place. If we were cleaning up we had to do everything you could possible think of including moping the concrete floor. I just don't understand how on your special day you can be treated the way they treated my best friend and her husband. Staff was very rude and I would never recommend this place to anyone!

w how to handle negative reviews. My recommendation, in addition to treating your customers with more respect and dignity, is to learn how to be the bigger person and be more courteous and empathetic to the people that are paying to keep your company in business. It's also unfortunate that you respond to your own reviews with a new review in order to cheat the system and try to increase your rating. Poor all around. Good Luck to anyone that books their wedding here. Beware!
