Everyone should get married here! We had an absolutely perfect wedding day with zero problems or drama- all thanks to owner Jana Padgett and coordinator/planner Ashley Thompson.
Jana is one of those people you run into so rarely, who truly loves her work and seems born to do it. Jana built the Barn specifically to be a wedding venue, and it shows. She has thought of everything. The bride's room is huge and comfortable, with every amenity you could want or need. You have your own private bathroom, seating for five people to get ready at once, with two hairdresser's chairs also. Mirrors everywhere. She's even got special wiring, so you can have hairdryers and flat irons running all at once without worrying about a short.
The boys have their own space with a TV, games, a humidor for cigars, and plenty of room to get ready. If they're bored, Jana will let them fish near their house before the ceremony!
Jana was present personally throughout our rehearsal and wedding day, solving problems and making sure everything ran smoothly. She had a special planter outside, where the guests walk in, that she had planted fall colored flowers in to match my theme! I could have cried.
Another example: I had an orange frosted cake that showed up more of a neon orange then the burnt orange we had aimed for. I heard nothing about it. Jana just asked permission to add some greenery, then turned the lights down in that corner and it honestly looked perfect. I would have never known if a bridesmaid hadn't spilled the beans the next day.
The highlight of the Barn is definitely the floral chandelier. Jana got up their and filled it with faux flowers that my mom and I bought a few days before my wedding, then got up again day of to add real roses provided by my florish (BouqYard, another incredible wedding vendor!). Jana also went out and cut fresh greenery from the woods around her house to decorate the loft and other areas.
And Ashley, their in-house coordinator is an absolute gem. I also hired her as my planner, and she felt more like a friend by the time of our wedding. She helped with every decision, and seemed to know just about everyone in town. When I selected a baker that she didn't know, she asked around with all her connections to make sure they were legit. We actually hired most of our vendors based of Jana and Ashley's recommendations. They are so serious about weddings and will not recommend someone who is anything less than perfect and professional.
I could go on and on. We didn't do anything day of. Ashley, Jana, and Theresa with Bouqyard set up and broke down all our decor. Oh, did I mention the Barn has a massive decor closet that's included in the price of your rental? Yep, I didn't buy a single candle, jar, easel, or scrap of fabric. Jana and Bouqyard had everything. Jana's staff was so wonderful. Someone made sure we always had a drink in our hands, that we were always where we were supposed to be, and that we were always having fun!
I'm getting a little emotional just thinking about how lovely, warm, and kind everyone was. I really felt so taken care of throughout the entire process. There is no other venue in the state that compares. Jana and Ashley, you are both so wonderful and I will be thankful forever for how joyful and easy you made our wedding. Jana, my mom still wants to be your best friend! To everyone else, please book a date before the rest of the world realizes what they're missing out on!
Though my fiancé and I chose a different venue, I highly recommend Jana and her team at The White Barn. Jana was kind during our thorough tour of her venue, and her professionalism continued as she sat and talked us through our questions. I am confident that those who choose The White Barn at Padgett Place will have an excellent experience and an unforgettable day.
Our daughter who lives in Birmingham chose the White Barn for her wedding which was held this past June. Our family lives out of state, but Jana was truly so kind, patient and full of advice to help us find the best vendors and make decisions that allowed our daughter to have the wedding she had hoped and dreamed of. Jana patiently answered all of our questions, always was a calming voice, and was determined to create exactly what we envisioned. What an absolutely beautiful day for our family...so many people said it was one of the best weddings they ever attended, and without a doubt, that is because of Jana and her team. A shout out to Theresa from Bouqyard as well, for creating the most beautiful flower arrangements and between Jana and Theresa working together...we had a perfectly beautiful day!
Tyler and I could not have asked for a better venue or wedding team. Jana, Ashley, and the white barn team went above and beyond for us. If you are looking for a wedding venue, look no further because this one is the absolute best. I could forever see myself hanging out with this group. The venue is beautiful and they are constantly updating it and making it prettier, if that’s even possible. Jana thought of everything when building this place. We love you all so much and couldn’t have asked for a better wedding day!
As the mother of the groom, I had the pleasure of working with Jana (owner of The White Barn) and her wonderful crew. From communication before the event, to set up and decorating, to the ceremony and reception, and even the clean-up, Jana and her staff were incredible - always kind, courteous, and professional. The venue itself is gorgeous, with so many beautiful locations for photos.
They made our son’s wedding day absolutely perfect. I can’t recommend them enough.
My son and new DIL were married at White Barn in November and it was everything we could have hoped for and more. Jana and her staff go above and beyond to make the experience dream worthy. The venue is beautiful both inside and out and is set Up perfectly to host all the vendors. I could not be more pleased at the way everything went from the minute we walked in until the end of the evening. I highly recommend The White Barn and would encourage anyone looking for a venue to check them out. 10/10!!
I booked with Jana September 2021. everything after that was a yes. her team is incredible, she has truly built a fantastic venue, and goes above and beyond for anyone who walks through that door. i’ve said this since the day after we got married back in oOctober of 2022. if i could relive my wedding i would, truly would hold every event in my life if they would allow it. Jana & Ashleigh made my dream wedding day become a reality!
We booked the White Barn for my daughter’s wedding last summer, when they were preparing for their first event. We fell in love with Jana and the venue at that first meeting and knew it was the place for us! BEST DECISION EVER!!! The barn and grounds is absolutely stunning, and they keep making it better and better! Jana and her girls were attentive and helpful every step of the way. And wedding day was beyond amazing. They went above and beyond to make sure the day was perfect and as stress free as possible. We are beyond grateful for them, and they have become friends for life!
I booked the White Barn back in April of 2021 before construction was even completed. I took a leap of faith and I am SO glad I did. It was immediately evident that Jana (venue owner) put her heart and soul into this venue, even before it was finished being built. She thought through every little detail and it showed!! Throughout every step of the planning process, Jana and her coordinator Ashley went above and beyond to make sure all of my needs were met. They were always readily available for all of my questions, and worked SO hard on my wedding day to make sure everything was absolutely perfect for me. Between putting together decorations, coordinating with vendors, helping out elderly family members…. they took care of absolutely EVERYTHING. I genuinely cannot recommend them enough- I highly recommend touring this venue because once you do, you will fall in love with the venue itself as well as the people. I am so thankful for Jana and Ashley and now consider them precious friends!!!
