About This Vendor
Stunning, rustic chic barn wedding venue
Perched on a knoll overlooking a stunning landscape of farmland, the Historic Barns of Nipmoose provide an idyllic setting for wedding receptions and ceremonies. The fully restored Scottish Barn, German Barn and Corn Crib are superb examples of America’s rich agricultural heritage. The three barns (all included in a wedding event) can be used in a variety of different ways. Couples planning a wedding will be excited by the many options which are available. The magnificent barns provide a rustic chic and charming context for celebrations whether elegant or casual, grand or intimate, or something in between. The expansive grounds surrounding the barns, with courtyard, pond and aspen grove, provide delightful opportunities for outdoor receptions and ceremonies. (We are proud of how meticulous we are in maintaining our grounds and buildings.) Our site includes three charming bathrooms (one of which is handicap accessible), a spacious bridal suite, a large parking lot to accommodate cars and buses and a Workshop Barn for caterers. There is a long, private driveway leading to the Nipmoose barns which provides an unobstructed view of hundreds of acres of farm fields. Located in the rustic hills of northern Hudson River Valley, NY, the Historic Barns of Nipmoose are nevertheless within easy driving distance of Bennington, VT, Saratoga Springs, Troy and Albany, NY and Williamstown, MA. Most frequently, the German Barn serves initially as the reception and bar site, and later in the evening, as the dance hall. Dinner is held in the Scottish Barn, while the little Corn Crib can used for memorabilia or as a photo booth. The most popular location for ceremonies is in front of the aspen grove, and in case of rain, inside the German Barn. The Nipmoose barns are owned by The Persistence Foundation, a non-profit dedicated to land conservation and preservation of agricultural heritage. Our site is an outstanding example of adaptive re-use with historic structures skillfully restored to accommodate wedding events. Special features of our site include about 100 oil lanterns hanging from shepherds hooks. These surround the barns and parking area creating a magical aura at night. In addition, all three barns are equipped inside with attractive Barcelona hanging lights. While dining tables and chairs are not included with the rental, we provide a large number of antique/rustic furniture and other items for couples to use as decorations inside and outside the barns. Guests at our weddings frequently exclaim that it is the most beautiful wedding site they have every seen!

The Historic Barns of Nipmoose provide majestic to beauty for all weddings, creating the most dignified and natural place to be wed, where every detail is attended to with great care. The important moment focusing on the wedding vows was perfectly framed & balanced by the well built posts and beams constructions of the carefully built historic barns.

The caterer's, the band, the staff all made the event run smoothly while reaching for the stars.. The Band Everyone says the visit to Nipmoose is a wedding which will always be cherished and remembered.

We absolutely loved having our wedding at Nipmoose and would definitely choose it again if we did it all over. My husband and I live in NYC, and we originally thought that Nipmoose was going to be too far away from Brooklyn. Once we visited and saw how beautiful Nipmoose was, the distance no longer mattered. We were enamored with Nipmoose and the site manager, Connie, and immediately booked the venue. It is absolutely stunning, and the striking barns and grounds made our wedding a truly memorable experience. Our guests and families were absolutely taken with Nipmoose, telling us that they felt like they were in a movie or visiting the shire. My dad in particular bragged to all his friends how amazing it was. Connie and her staff were lovely -- really helpful and kind and so good at what they do! They had sweet details throughout the wedding that made it feel like a truly special event. Connie is very high touch and incredibly responsive, which worked perfectly with our style. She never left us wondering what was happening and helped us personalize our wedding. The nature of the venue means that you will need to hire and find vendors for all the different components yourself. While it provided the level of customization we wanted, it also made our wedding a bit more expensive and resulted in more moving components to manage. We definitely thought the venue was worth the extra work. Connie had a great list of suggestions and good advice as we shopped for vendors, and worked very hard to make sure everyone was prepared for our wedding at Nipmoose. More than all of these things, we are so happy to have found a friend in Connie during our wedding planning. If you have the opportunity to have your event at Nipmoose, we hope you love it as much as we did!

This venue is wonderful for so many reasons! 10 reasons to be exact. First off, this venue is absolutely breathtaking! There are 3 barns you can use for your reception and/or ceremony, and they are so gorgeous and well taken care of. The barns are surrounded by a huge lawn, so your guests will have plenty of room to roam and you'll have so many options to take wedding photos at. The lawn of the venue is framed 360 by beautiful views, including forests, mountains, a small pond, and a flower garden. So no matter what direction you face your guests and wedding photographer can take in breathtaking views. The foliage at fall is so vibrant, our Autumn wedding photos look GORGEOUS! Second, this venue has a ton of useful stuff that is available for you to use however you please (at no extra cost, yay!), and it's all gorgeous! They have wooden tables, stools, benches, crates, and troughs, metal milk jugs, lanterns in various sizes, huge wooden wheels, cabinets and display cabinets and desks, and a bunch of other stuff! They will offer you the list, they will put out for you whatever you choose to use and keep whatever you don't want stored away and out of sight. Third, they have actual bathrooms, nice ones. A lot of barn-type venues don't have real bathrooms, lots of them have porta-potties or nothing at all, so these bathrooms are a HUGE plus. Fourth, they've got a huge parking lot available for use for cars and buses. They've also got golf carts available for use incase you have any guests that need assistance walking. Fifth, they've got fire pits available for rental, which were a huge hit at our wedding! Sixth, they've got a basement bridal suite, so you and your party can get ready on-site rather than having makeup and hair artists come to your hotel then having to drive to the venue all done up. It takes a huge amount of stress out of the day getting ready on-site. So convenient! Plus, because you’ll be on-site getting ready your wedding photographer and videographer can take getting ready pictures of you and your party, which we were so happy to have. Seventh, they have an extra barn connected to the parking lot that is available for use for your vendors. The barn has 2 sections, a garage entrance and an attached prep room. So your vendors can pull their cars/truck right into the building and unload all of their supplies directly into the barn. You can have your caterer prep food in there, or anything else you may need. Your vendors will thank you for the convenience! Eighth, you can have both your ceremony and your reception here, which you can't always do at every venue. It is so much more convenient and less stressful to just be able to transition into your reception immediately. Your guests and vendors will thank you! Ninth, the owner Connie is SO nice, and will work with your vendors and you to make sure everything and everyone is all set before your big day. She actually also has a list available of vendors she’s had at her venue before that she’s had good experiences with for you to take home with you, which makes getting a good start on finding vendors in the area so much easier! She and her staff are so friendly and sweet! It made the entire experience working with them even more pleasurable. Lastly, for all of the LGBTQ+ couples out there. This is a LGBTQ+ friendly venue! Connie and her staff were so welcoming to my Wife and I! You need to book this venue, you won't regret it!! Cannot recommend this venue enough!

We had our wedding here in Oct. of 2021 and it could not have been a more wonderful venue. The scenery is absolutely stunning (especially when the fall leaves are changing!) and the barns provide a fantastic event space - getting to move our guests through the various barns allowed us to provide a different experience in each room, which helped make the night magical. They can set up lanterns all around the property, so you'll have beautiful lighted pathways at night - they also have a few fire pits you can rent (very affordable), which we used so that our guests could make s'mores! Connie and the venue staff were extremely easy to work with - they even sent us a cute little gift after our wedding, which was so thoughtful. 10/10, would highly recommend as a wedding (or other event) venue.

We cannot imagine a more perfect place to have had our wedding. The rustic beauty of the venue is just out of this world – the beautifully preserved barns with fall color and a field of corn husks in the background was exactly what we had envisioned, before we even knew Nipmoose existed. Plus, there’s not one, not two, but three (!) beautiful barns, plus a fourth barn-like structure with bathrooms and space for vendor prep. The problem with most barn wedding venues is that you only get one barn, so there’s usually no attractive rain plan. The peace of mind we got from having a second barn where we could potentially do the ceremony in case of rain was priceless. Barb and Connie were a pleasure to work with, and seamlessly interfaced with our planner and all of our vendors. The crew on the day of the wedding was basically invisible to us, but made everything happen like clockwork. We are so, so happy we got married here. Thank you Nipmoose!

My family and I have had the honor of working with the staff at the Historic Barns of Nipmoose this past year to plan my fall wedding. The planning was mostly long distance and Barb was so easy to work with, and always available to meet me. My emails were always returned quickly. The professionalism, organization, care, and concern that was shown to me is beyond words. With a minor hiccup in my plans, not due to any part of the barns, Barb and Connie were willing to go above and beyond what I had expected of them. They were my calm support through this process. I was always greeted and sent away with a hug. They truly put their hearts into their business. It was a beautiful experience to see the barns through all the seasons this past year. We met the barns with a dusting of snow, then saw the spring blooms, and finally the amazing fall foliage with plantings to compliment every season. The grounds are always kept gorgeous, it really is like all the photos you see on their website. I must say however, to see the place in person is breathtaking, especially on your own wedding day!The day of our wedding was forecast with rain. Ryan was willing to wait until the last moment to decide where to set up our ceremony. I can't explain how excited I was to pull up and see the chairs set up in front of the stunning aspen grove. It was a dream come true for us and all our guests! I must add that my flower girl lost her bracelet and Ryan,our hero, was able to find it for us!

My daughter and son in law were married at the Historic Barns of Nipmoose on September 10, 2016. Nine months prior to this we visited quite a few barns in search of the ideal setting. None of them compared to the beauty of the lovely venue of Nipmoose. The 3 barns are rustic and in mint condition. One of the barns held our sit down dinner. The second, nearby barn was for dancing, the bar, and the band. The third, smallest barn was perfect for family pictures and gifts. The surrounding grounds were well manicured and the scenery was heavenly. Besides the spectacular beauty of this venue the management is worthy of mentioning. We initially met with the Event Manager, Barb. She was very informative, kind, and organized. She had pictures of past weddings as well as an extensive, concise list of highly recommended vendors ranging from photographers, caterers, wedding planners, florists, and accommodations for the guests. We met several times prior to the wedding and the orchestration and cooperation from Nipmoose's management was commendable. Also, the caterer and wedding planner played significant roles in making this wedding such a positive experience. The intricate working parts all came together creating a wonderful wedding. However, if this wedding was at a setting other than Nipmoose it would not have been as beautiful as it was. Nipmoose's setting, upkeep, and management truly made this wedding perfect. I highly recommend the Historic Barns of Nipmoose for any wedding and/or party setting.

I can't say enough about Nipmoose - this review is long but hopefully helpful to someone out there! My husband and I live in Brooklyn, and after he proposed we spent months searching for a wedding venue, it was by far the hardest part of our process. We considered venues in Brooklyn, upstate, all around the tri-state area, and either because of their ambiance, the staff, or the price point, none of them felt right. Then one of our friends (a wedding planner) suggested we check out the Historic Barns of Nipmoose. From the second we turned into the long, tree-lined driveway, and took in the magnificent views, we knew we had found someplace special. A far remove from even the smallest nearby towns (Hoosick Falls, Troy, or Bennington - the latter of which is where we ended up staying with our guests), the place had exactly the kind of secluded beauty we were looking for. We could immediately see how the space would complement what we intended to be a tasteful but lo-fi wedding. \r\rAs a designer, the historic barns were incredible to stumble upon - they are works unto themselves. Connie Kheel and her team have painstakingly restored these amazing structures to a gorgeous condition. The detail and craftsmanship of these barns are amazing to withhold and needed almost no frill or decoration to be wedding-worthy. I found the less you did to them the more beautiful they were which is a reflection of a truly special place (and saved on cost!). \r\rThe few modern updates that have been made to the barns have just the right blend of amenities and historic charm - for example the bathrooms are totally updated and impeccable but with the spirit of the history and barns in mind. \r\rI can't write this review without mentioning Connie and her team. It was really after meeting Connie that we fell in love not just with the place, but also with her and the staff - it was then that knew we had finally found our place. Connie and Barb were awesome to deal with throughout the process, so incredibly down-to-earth, lovely and practical - a majorly refreshing change from the typical wedding industry nonsense - and we really came to form a bond with Connie, I can't say enough about her.\r\rThanks to all of Connie and Barb's help and support, the afternoon and evening of our wedding day were even more perfect than we could have hoped for, and we had nothing but rave reviews from our (admittedly biased) guests. There was a brief bit of rain right after our vows, but the guests made good use of Nipmoose's red umbrellas and were able to sit out the shower outside, sipping cocktails, in light that gave us some of the most beautiful photos from the whole weekend. As the sun set, almost every single guest I spoke to mentioned the incredible 360 views to us, I really can't do the views justice in this review - you'll have to go see them for yourselves. The fire pits also proved to be an especially big hit, as did the German Barn, where we had our epic dance party. \r\rTo sum up, after our wedding I had more people tell me that Nipmoose was one of the most special wedding venues they had ever been to than I could have anticipated. The place really made an impact on everyone there. It is beyond special and I recommend anyone considering checking it out to make the trek - it's worth it!
