The space where you get married is so much more than a pretty backdrop. Nothing cemented that fact in my mind more than pulling into Barnwood the day after our wedding to finish collecting our things from the farmhouse. My eyes started glistening the moment I caught a glimpse of the giant willow tree where we had shared our vows, and the overwhelming, wonderful memories of our day started pouring in. The space becomes such a big part of your life when you choose to live out such impactful moments in it. Just like the setting in any other story, it provides the foundation for all the events to come and an anchor to help your memory recount it all again later. I strongly encourage everyone planning their wedding to pick a place that supports their own life’s story- a place that feels right, rather than a place that only looks beautiful. Julie & Dave have created a space that fits our story so well, and I can easily imagine it working for most other people in the Madison area. Barnwood is a perfect embodiment of Madison itself: an equal balance between small town charm and big city convenience, filled with some of the most wonderful people you will ever meet. Our ceremony was surrounded by some of the oldest and most impressive trees we’ve seen anywhere (and we love hiking), but at the same time our guests were able to stay at a very nice Holiday Inn only 6 minutes away that included free shuttle service. Our family & friends from up north were able to sit outside by the fire as they’re accustomed to, while our family & friends from cities enjoyed the HVAC and wifi indoors. It is simply amazing how well Barnwood was able to make everyone feel welcome. But then you the meet the owners, Julie and Dave, and you start to understand. They are just amazing people, and have managed to capture so much of themselves in their venue. Talking with them was so much fun. But even if you don’t jive with their personalities (somehow), you have to be impressed with how much care and effort they put into making Barnwood a special place. Dave has personally planted hundreds of trees on the property, and we saw him mowing the multiple acres of lawn himself. Their family makes most of the wood tables & decor that they let weddings use for free. Julie was at our rehearsal helping us figure out our plan and where to go. This list goes on and on!! It was nothing short of inspiring to see how involved they were in ensuring every aspect of our wedding went well. It’s seriously challenging to come up with negatives. I think our only issue might have been the acoustics in the barn- we had a live band and it was a bit loud & boomy (it’s hard to turn down the volume of a drummer). But 2 of my top 5 favorite moments from our wedding involved the overwhelming eruption of cheers & applause from all our family & friends, so I don’t think that actually counts as a negative. All-in-all, I cannot believe that we were ever seriously considering other venues for our wedding. Barnwood feels so right for us, and gave us everything we could have asked for. It felt like actual magic was occurring that day, but so much of that magic was just the hard work of all our vendors. Barnwood not only provided an excellent stage for them to showcase their efforts, it also directly included some of the hardest working magicians of them all. We just cannot thank Julie & Dave enough for helping create the best day of our lives, and such a wonderful setting for our memories.

The venue at Barnwood Events is absolutely beautiful. The staff and owners were incredibly helpful and accommodating and made the entire wedding planning process painless and worry free. Julie and our Day of Coordinator Kayla were always on top of any hiccups or issues that arose throughout the months before the wedding as well as the day of the wedding, even driving to pick up flowers that had been forgotten the morning of the wedding! The venue itself is so pretty and inviting, and the staff did such a wonderful job helping to set up and take everything down at the end of the night. After the wedding we received so many compliments on our venue and the overall experience from friends and family which made it even more special. We are so grateful we were able to celebrate our special day with Barnwood Events!

The venue fit what we wanted perfectly. The weather held out and getting married under the willow tree, with wonderful fall colors was beautiful. Julie was great to work with throughout the whole process. We had hired a wedding coordinator through the venue, however she ended up getting sick right before the wedding. The extra set of hands was missed but luckily my bridal party stepped up and helped set up and take down. Since Julie was wearing many hats the day of the wedding, the bartenders ended up serving some drinks before the ceremony so everyone was inside the venue at the reception site instead of outside at the ceremony site. Everyone thought the venue was beautiful and had a really fun time.

Julie, Dave, Ellie and the Barnwood’s team were so reliable, friendly, helpful, hard-working, communicative, and overall caring. This meant the world to Isaac and I as we had our reception there! They took us in and treated us as if we were family! There are so many reasons why we went with Barnwood from the start (electric car parking, huge parking lot, beautiful venue, caring staff, lovely property, ionizing air cleansing system for our loved ones afraid of Covid — you name it)… but there are even more reasons why we would have our most important day/reception there all over again. We are so thankful for Julie and her team for hosting our event. There is no better space than this. They made our day a dream.

Beautiful setting for both ceremony and reception. You would think the owners have been doing this for decades; they are so organized, kind, and make everything a breeze when wedding planning can be anything but. Their list of preferred vendors is all you need - we got our catering, photographer and flowers from their list (we did our own music hookup and dessert). Bartenders are fantastic and our nieces and nephews really enjoyed playing bags outside. Very reasonable price (we had our wedding on a Thursday so that saved us a lot but we could have also done a Friday or Saturday) and you get incredible service, rooms to get ready, and SO MUCH SPACE to move around and party!

My wife and I could not have asked for a better location than Barnwood to host our wedding! Dave and Julie were so kind and welcoming when we first toured the venue. Their excitment for Barnwood helped fuel our own excitement and help us visualize ourselves getting married at this beautiful location. There are multiple locations that you can choose for your ceremony depending on your preference, we choose the beautiful giant oak tree out front. The weeks leading up to our wedding Julie and the coordinator that we hired though Barnwood, Taylor, were so willing to answer all of our questions and helped us tremendously leading up the wedding day. We opted to rent the attached \"farmhouse\" which was a super convient option for the guys to all get ready and have a place to hangout before the ceremony. Barnwood also has contracts with some local hotels for shuttles which prevents the hassel of your guests worrying about driving back to their hotel after a long night. The day of the wedding went so smoothly, thanks to Taylor. My wife and I knew we were in good hands and that we didn't need to stress at all because Taylor handeled everything with our various vendors. We loved everything about Barnwood and you will too!

Julie, Dave, Alyssa, and the whole Barnwood family and staff made our wedding an absolute dream. They were so kind and helpful throughout the whole process and made sure we had everything we needed. We loved their extensive decor inventory and the staff assistance with setup and tear down is invaluable. Not to mention their bartenders make fantastic drinks! They all clearly know what they’re doing and it couldn’t have been easier for our vendors to all coordinate and get what they needed. We also can’t recommend Alyssa and (other Barnwood coordinators) enough for helping make our ceremony and reception so smooth. We felt like we were being taken care of by family. Thank you so much!

Dave and Julie (co-owners) have something really special at Barnwood. The decor included on-site made it stress free to plan our wedding from out of state. Julie is very responsive via email and helped with all of our random questions from beginning. We toured 5 venues in Madison and Barnwood was the clear choice. The entire property at Barnwood is great but the reception area is breathtaking! We rented the farmhouse on the property for our extended family which was a great option to keep everyone close during the weekend. Dave took photos for our engagement session and photos during the wedding to complement the photographers' photos. Ellie, our day-of coordinator through Barnwood was great at giving us ideas and helping create a vision for the big day that we couldn't have designed ourselves. Hosting our wedding at Barnwood was hands down an amazing experience!

Barnwood was the perfect wedding venue! From the first time we viewed it, we knew it had everything we needed to make our wedding day special. Dave & Julie were such a pleasure to work with and our day-of coordinator, Ellie made sure everything ran smoothly on the date of loss. I can't say enough about how beautiful the venue is. Highly recommend Barnwood!

Barnwood is a wonderful venue for so many reasons. The venue itself is so beautiful that very little decoration is needed. Barnwood has many decor items (center pieces, table numbers, chalk boards, card box) and it makes a wedding incredibly easy to manage and plan. They have indoor and outdoor space for the ceremony and a variety of arbors to pick from. They do an excellent job of being able to customize the day to your style and needs. Additionally, the staff are wonderful. They set tables, decorated the arbor with our provided flowers, managed the wedding party entrances during the ceremony, and checked in with me to ensure I had all the support I needed. They have a wonderful venue, wonderful amenities, and wonderful staff; I could not recommend a better venue for a wedding.

Julie and Dave (owners) are kind, personable, accommodating, and amazing to work with. They were very responsive to all of my questions and emails throughout the entire wedding planning process and helped the big day go so smoothly day of. The modern barn venue and grounds are well taken care of and doubled as great spots for pictures! Although it’s close to downtown Madison, you don’t hear all the traffic and really have your own spot. They have their own onsite parking lot and partner with two hotels (Sheraton and Holiday Inn Express) that provide shuttle transportation to the venue, making it convenient for guests. They also have A TON of gorgeous onsite decor you can use, making decoration planning easy. We loved the several gorgeous outdoor ceremony spots to choose from as well as the ability to have a backup rain plan indoors (which we almost had to use and they were ready!). Thank you Julie, Dave, and the entire Barnwood Events family for all of your help and work in making our big day run so smoothly!

THIS is the venue to have a wedding in Madison, WI! It is a BEAUTIFUL new building with state of the art everything and you can make it what ever style you want. My daughter's medium-sized wintry wedding was enclosed in views of beautiful snow-covered trees . The reception was in the adjacent large room already set up with tables, the DJ and a huge, stunning bar. No one needed to step outside. Catering is so easy in the large kitchen provided. You also get perfect, comfortable rooms for the wedding parties to get ready in. There is a huge screen to run photos. We also used it to watch the NYC ball drop on our NYE wedding. Another worthy mention is the the owners, Dave and Julie Wood, put in a top notch air filtration system. It never felt stuffy, smelled sweaty (we all danced for hours), and just felt good to know of the great air circulation due to the current covid variants popping up.We cannot thank Dave and Julie Wood enough for all their patience and kindness through the whole process. They run such a classy business and they care so much about their clients. It felt much better to work with them than a venue who hires employees who may not pay the kind of attention to details that the owners would. Our wedding was approx 150 people. We know of weddings there for many more (and less) and its so pretty in the summer to have the ceremony outside. Oh, and I have to mention the rentable farmhouse. Family with young kids stayed there with local babysitters. They were right across the driveway from the venue in a home with a kitchen. So easy!Couldn't have asked for a better experience at Barnwood and will recommend to everyone!

Dave and Julie have built a beautiful space with enough elegance that you can use as much or as little decoration as you desire! The flexibility of the space was really helpful as we made last minute adjustments to accommodate ever-changing restrictions. The space is well equipped to host a full wedding day from start to finish with plenty of space to set and reset as needed.

Julie and Dave made our experience a breeze and extremely enjoyable! They were great communicators and were always available for any questions we had. They provided everything we needed and went above and beyond to make sure we had the best experience! The venue is stunning, staff is great and service provided is professional. I would highly suggest this venue and staff to everyone! We had an incredible day and we owe a lot to the venue and staff who helped make it happen.

We had our wedding at Barnwood in July and we couldn’t have been more happy. Julie, Dave and Alyssa are amazing to work with. They worked with all of our vendors and when the day came, it was absolutely perfect. Our original venue canceled our wedding 3 months before the date. We ended up going with Barnwood and I’m so happy that we did. It is a beautiful venue! Our guests raved about the barn. They thought everything was beautiful and they especially liked the bar. I have already recommended Barnwood to some of my engaged friends for their wedding.

Barnwood was the absolute perfect space for our wedding - everything about the venue was spot on! Barnwood was gorgeous indoors and provided a spacious yet intimate space for all aspects of wedding reception. The outdoor space was phenomenal too and allowed for guests to play lawn games and there were gorgeous spots for photos on site. It was also such a delight to work with Julie and the rest of the Barnwood staff. She was communicative and helpful, and truly went above and beyond to ensure that every detail of our day was spot-on (she even hand made candied lemons for our signature cocktail!!) Barnwood is an absolute gorgeous venue in a great location with thoughtful and kind staff! We are so lucky that we selected this venue for our special day!

Julie and Dave were awesome hosts for our wedding. We could not have asked for a more beautiful venue with such great people. Julie and Dave built this Barn from the ground up. When we first decided to have our special day with them, the Barn was no more than Tyrrell covered walls and an incredible vision. We had no doubt that Julie and Dave would have the place in tip top shape in a short 8 months. They not only had it built and ready for use, but also had so many important details covered to make our guests comfortable and add to our excitement.From the gorgeous craftsmanship of the bar to the scenic indoor porch area, this venue will blow your guests away. I had people all night telling me what a wonderful place the Barn was. Not to mention its perfect location! All of our guests stayed at the Sheraton (all from wayyyy out of town). This was a quick 3 mile shuttle ride, which was just perfect for getting guests to cocktail hour on time and getting everyone home safe that night.This was an absolutely amazing place to spend our day. Julie and Dave had the Barn open for us early to get ready. The Bridal suite was perfect for the salon to travel to. The girls at Ecco Salon could not have been happier with the set up for getting all 7 of us \"done up\". The Trolley found the location easily to pick us up for the ceremony. We grabbed lots of great pictures indoors and outdoors, with a great rural feel. Maybe the best way to describe the atmosphere would be classy and elegant with rustic undertones. I would highly recommend this venue for ANYONE. Having your wedding with Barnwood Events will not disappoint.

Julie Wood (Owner) I'm so excited to take on this new adventure with my husband Dave and my family to serve you and your guests! Both my husband and I have been entrepreneurs and have run businesses so we look forward to sharing our beautiful property that we have enjoyed for the past 20 plus years. Dave planted many of the trees you see on the property over 20 years ago and I dabbled with the wildflower & gardens on the property. My experience running events at the UW-Madison for the past 12 years has given me the experience and lessons learned to help you create an event as special as you!
