Jacleen Lawton(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 10-09-2022 We got married here in September and had the best day ever. This gorgeous venue allowed us to have our dream wedding while sticking to our budget. Our guests raved about this venue. The scenery is breathtaking. We feel like we found a hidden gem. Alexandra and Beth were very helpful. They gave us recommendations and were there to answer any questions we had throughout the planning process. Would highly recommend having your wedding here!!

Wendi Johnson(other)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 03-09-2022 Our daughter and Son in law researched to find this FANTASTIC Venue! We booked a viewing date in order to work on layout for the wedding. We brought our measuring tape and took photos so we could map out where everything would go. It took a bit of foresight to make sure we had everything we needed when we arrived as it was a 2 hour jaunt from where we live but an excel spreadsheet did the trick. The Barn was lovely and I will attach photos to show you how we laid things out. We had the head table, cake cutting area, tables for guests, a kid zone with kid tables & chairs we brought with us and activities for them, & can’t forget the dance floor area. The Indoor Upper Indoor Bar area was perfect for preparing beverages for the toast. As well as a great place to do cake cutting for our guests. They did just have the one fridge and I will say, this was the most stressful part for me as the mother of the bride. The caterers handled the dinner but we were in charge of keeping the cakes & appetizers cool. I looked into renting a refrigerated truck, but knew we also needed to rent a trailer. So I started to borrow coolers but it was a struggle finding ones big enough for the platters. After pondering for a bit on this came up with this - GOLDEN TIP: My Dad, Brother and Uncle took a trip to Home Depot and got their huge rubbermaid bins, we double packed large ziplock bags with ice and they worked GREAT! YAY! The lower level of the barn was a great place to put the bins that we needed for clean up after. The groomsman area was great and although a little small, it worked for the Groom and his 5 groomsmen. The Bridal suite area was perfect for our needs. We had the Bride, 5 bridesmaids and 7 flower girls so we brought extra table top mirrors with us and it all worked out well. (We did bring a power strip and some extra little white extension cords for curling irons). The outdoor bar area which is new is perfect for serving cocktails and there is a wall behind it with storage behind for coolers. There are only two bathrooms but we had about 120 guests and it worked out just fine. If you had a larger wedding you could always rent a restroom trailer which I have seen used and they are pretty great too. (They usually have 2-3 restrooms and they look like a hotel inside). They recently added a Fire Pit - (Which we brought firewood and made up a smores kit for after dinner.) The fire was blazing and gorgeous!! The Cocktail Hour Area had tables and lighting for our guests and we set up a popcorn bar in this area. The venue has corn hole sets which were perfect for guests to play during cocktail hour. Our Guests were blown away by the Venue and had a great time! Did I say the weather was perfect because it was PERFECT! I have to say, the staff were AMAZING to work with! They knew the stressors that planning and preparing for a wedding can have and were so accommodating to our questions. They were so patient and had everything ready for us when we arrived. We just gave them a diagram of the table layout we needed for the Dinner/ Reception area in the barn. The ceremony area is lovely. The white pews against the green grass and the field in the background with the arch to walk through made for a perfect setting. As our daughter had her dance with Daddy, she whispered in his ear, “This was the perfect day.” Thank you Beth and Alexandra and TEAM!! You all are WONDERFUL and this venue is a GEM!! - Wendi J (Mother of the Bride) Reviewed on 06-10-2022
Cheyenne Corbett(bride)4 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 17-09-2022 This venue is so gorgeous! It is such a calm and private space. My favorite part was leaving the dance with my new husband to look at the stars by the outside ceremony space, taking it all in. Beth and Alexandra are very easy to work with and so helpful. The challenges are lack of refrigeration. We went with a catering company that has worked there before and Beth and Alexandra helped give ideas of what other couples have done for the bar. The bridal suite is gorgeous and barn is beautiful by itself. Highly recommend this venue. Reviewed on 29-09-2022
Melanie Delimat(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 04-06-2022 Absolutely LOVED Hayvn at Hay River!! It is such a beautiful venue. It was everything we were looking for plus so much more. Beth and Alexandra were always there if we had any questions at all and they were both super nice and very helpful. All of my guests loved the location and kept telling us just how beautiful it was! The bridal sweet was absolutely perfect for the bridesmaids and I. It was spacious, cute, and really just perfect. The groomsmen had their own little shack which was perfect for them as well. I couldn’t be more thankful for how wonderful our day was. Reviewed on 06-06-2022

Sophia Kamke(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 14-05-2022 LOVED Hayvn at Hay River!!! It was the perfect venue for our wedding all day long. Super great getting ready areas, a GORGEOUS backdrop for the ceremony outdoors, lots of storage space underneath the barn, and the barn itself- STUNNING! Every guest commented how perfect this place was for our wedding. Alexandra and Beth were super responsive months prior and all weekend long! We are so thankful to have gotten married here. Can’t rave about this venue enough!!!! Reviewed on 06-06-2022

Jayme Holden(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 01-05-2021 Love love loves working with this venue. We originally had a covid date and had to postpone but still wanted to do something intimate that day, and they worked with us in moving out big date and still let us use it that day for a couple hours so we could have our private 10 person wedding. When our 2021 date rolled around they were always on top of things asking if we wanted to come out and measure anything and also met with us to discuss layout of everything! They were very helpful they set up all of our tables, and were available when ever we needed anything. They spruced up a lovely bridal suit with hair stations so it was a really nice big space to get ready. We got married outside where they have a permanent arch in the ground so we didn’t have to make one and it was really easy to decorate! Another thing I loved if they hired a security person who we loved, and that way they kept an eye on anyone or anything if they get to crazy, cause I really didn’t want my dad or someone to have to tend to those things. I loved this space, and all that it had to offer for our day. Nice spacious barn and property! Reviewed on 08-08-2021
