When wedding venue shopping, we looked at a few barn venues and Hoosier Grove Barn took the cake. It offered not only the desirable barn space, but also an old schoolhouse and farmhouse, all in one location! They provided a list of vendors for every area of a wedding we needed, and all the vendors we used from the list were amazing. Vicki and her team made the wedding as smooth as it could’ve possibly went. From set up to take down, everyone was extremely helpful. Our guests had nothing but nice things to say about our bartender, Brian. He remembered people’s drink orders as they went to the bar. Our host, Amy, helped navigate my two year old son, who was our ring bearer, during the entrance to our ceremony. She also took great care of my wheelchair-bound grandmother during our reception. The entire team helped put together a day/night that we will remember forever. I highly recommend Hoosier Grove Barn to anyone looking for a wedding venue! Reviewed on 17-11-2023

The barn is absolutely beautiful with minimal need for decor! There is a decor package that I highly recommend for ease. Very stocked bar with lots of different options as well. Vicki and the entire team were so helpful through the planning process. They helped guide us with what they have seen be successful, and what hasn’t, but also keeping in mind what we wanted! The bar staff and event staff were incredibly helpful all day. As the bride and groom, we never were left without water, our dinner or a drink. Thank you Hoosier Grove team for the beautiful venue and amazing team! Reviewed on 06-11-2023

We chose this venue for the gorgeous outside ceremony space, so when rain was on the radar for our wedding day, we were disappointed. Not for long though, because HGB and our wedding coordinator Vicki sprang into action to keep everything running beautifully. Our indoor reception was just as gorgeous as it would have been outside, the room was flipped quickly, and we had the wedding of our dreams! During rehearsal and the wedding day, Vicki kept everybody on track and on time. In working with her in the months and weeks leading up to the wedding, so much of my stress was alleviated because I knew we were in great hands and that things would run smoothly. The rest of the HGB staff were just as amazing. Our bartenders were fantastic and our drinks were delicious. We received so many compliments on the venue space, too. I am so glad we chose them for our big day. Thanks HGB and Vicki! Reviewed on 31-10-2023

This is an excellent venue and an excellent team!We had Vicki as our coordinator. Any time we emailed a question she would email right back and answer it, and any time we wanted to meet in person to go over more detailed questions she set up a meeting no problem. Day of, Vicki and the rest of the team were ON TOP OF IT. You might not think about this beforehand, but no matter how supportive your family and friends are, every single person in your wedding party/immediate family has a pre-existing relationship with you, and they likely have their own concerns. Having someone like Vicki, who is ONLY concerned with you and your day is extremely beneficial when the stress kicks in. Maybe your sister wants to take more pictures and your friend from out of town wants to chat and your mom wants to fix your hair but your friends want to do a toast together - Vicki will be there to ask you for what YOU want, and if it doesn't align with whatever else is going on, she'll make sure it happens for you!The entire rest of the staff at the barn is ALSO on top of things, and there were many times where I asked a coordinator who wasn't working our wedding questions and they were just as willing to help too! I was happy with the look, price, and included bar in the venue, but ultimately it was the service on the day of (and prep ahead of time) that left such a good impression. I can't recommend them enough! Reviewed on 23-10-2023

As someone who has zero wedding planning experience, the folks at Hoosier Grove made th process so easy and stress free. The ladies there were professional, incredibly kind and knowledgeable, and truly seemed to love weddings. They accomodated everything I asked for and were incredibly responsive, even through all my million questions 4 weeks from the big day. Day of was amazing. Vicki had everything handled like a true pro, and I didn't have to think of anything. The venue is incredibly affordable (especially if your family likes to drink) and GORGEOUS. Great for an intimate wedding under 100 guests and incredibly beautiful during fall. Reviewed on 18-10-2023

Don't think about it another second, BOOK YOUR WEDDING HERE. If I could give them 6 stars, I would. Their pricing was so reasonable compared to other venues. Vicki and Mallory were truly a dream to work, so accommodating, patient and detail oriented. They made the whole process easier. We loved being able to have our ceremony and cocktail hour outside and then our reception inside. The space is absolutely perfect for 100 guests. Their decor package made everything so simple and seamless, along with their get ready space. We've gotten so many compliments from family and friends on how much they loved the venue - warm, welcoming, cozy, intimate were just a few words used to describe the venue + the staff.

Hoosier Grove is the ultimate wedding venue. It was the first and only venue we toured, because after we met the staff and felt the warmth of the property, we knew it was where we were supposed to be married. Throughout the planning process, our Hoosier staff could not have been more helpful. On our wedding day, we were blown away by the attention to detail and kindness they showed not only to us as a couple, but to all of our guests. We cannot recommend Hoosier Grove enough!

I organized and planned my son's wedding since he lives out of town and Hoosier Grove Barn was a delight to work with. The location is simply beautiful. We had an outdoor wedding in the garden and it was such a wonderful event. The team decorated exactly how we wanted it and they were there with us every step of the way. The barn itself was breath taking and every guest I spoke with commented how pretty it was. It is a fantastic location for anyone that wants simple yet elegant. The morning of the event I was a little freaked out about getting everything done (we had an early wedding and only had 2 hours to set up). I shouldn't have worried because the team knows exactly what they are doing and it was all done on time and exactly how I pictured it. The entire team was wonderful to work with and everything went off without a hitch. I highly recommend this location to anyone who asks. Reviewed on 05-10-2023

we had a wonderful experience with hoosier grove barn! our favorite thing about the venue was being able to have parts of our wedding both indoors and outdoors! the garden space was stunning for our ceremony and felt very quaint, and we loved the charming rustic feeling of the barn. we also loved having a space to get ready and the room was big enough for all 10 people! we got the total decor package and loved how everything turned out and it made it much easier for us to set up and tear down. every staff working the event was very friendly and attentive to us! we felt the day went very smoothly and we only learned about minor mishaps after the fact! we wish we remembered to announce our fire pit because only a few guests knew about it since it was outside the barn. big shout out to mallory for helping us with hanging up our arch flowers, our coordinator katie for keeping us on time, vicki for helping with the planning and decor, and tricia and vicki for all of their help at the reception!

We got married at Hoosier Grove Barn 8/25/23 (4 days ago) and I cannot get over this venue. My guests are still talking about the venue/staff and barn. HIGHLY recommend this venue, incredible drink package. The bartenders made incredible drinks (we had a signature cocktail Paloma and Wisconsin Old Fashioned) and our guests said they were some of the best drinks they've ever had. Vicki was incredible throughout the planning process and you can absolutely tell her experience shines through. She made our wedding dreams come true and was so responsive to our requests. We had our ceremony in the garden which was STUNNING! Cocktail hour was on the campus lawn complete with corn hole and jenga. Reception was in the barn and it is just stunning, the decor that comes with the barn is magical. We had our hotel block in Chicago and hired a charter bus to take guests out so you guys can have it all too! Can't say enough about HGB. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!! Reviewed on 29-08-2023

For example, shortly into dancing they came up to me and asked if I wanted to bring out the left over appetizers for a late night snack and I was totally on board! I hadn't thought of doing that before, and they stepped up to make my night that much better!! My family and friends commented to me as well with how impressed they were with the even staff--for being so courteous and thoughtful!Pricing wise the barn is fair, even a bit of a bargain, considering the level of open bar you'll receive!! The barn itself if perfect for 100 guests, not too big where it feels empty, but not too small where it could feel crowded!! Plus the whole interior and exterior of the bar is fantastic for photo-ops!! The neighborhoods nearby are somewhat challenging for photos, but most decent photographers should be able to work around them to give you some stunning photos!!Overall: I'd recommend for any bride and groom looking for a beautiful location, GREAT service, and fair price!!!

Vicki helped not only with day of coordination, but with all the planning that led up too, and even helped me bounce ideas of off here since my now husband is in the military, and wasnt always around.

Kelsey Quaresima(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 13-10-2018 My husband and I got married on October 13th, 2018. We decided to have our wedding at Hoosier Grove barn after taking a small tour of the barn and the rest of the facilities on site a year prior to our wedding. We knew right away Hoosier Grove was going to be the perfect place for our dream wedding in the fall. The barn provided a beautiful intimate banquet room where we held the reception and part of cocktail hour. Our cocktail hour was held outside in the area between the barn and the garden where we got married, but due to cold weather staff assisted with escorting everyone inside of the barn to finish up cocktail hour. The staff did a wonderful job setting up tables and helping decorate both inside and outside. This venue was wonderful because it provided many options to get married on the grounds of the barn including the school house, garden, barn, or numerous places outside on the grounds. My husband and I chose the garden to have the ceremony which was surprisingly warm for the middle of October thanks to the outside fire pits provided by the barn. During cocktail hour the staff was so helpful with keeping the food that we provided hot and cold and also bringing the food out and setting it up for us. Hoosier Grove barn is a great choice if you are looking for a venue that allows you to bring your own food for cocktail hour without going through a vendor. Hoosier Grove also allows you to supply your own vendors instead of picking off of a narrow list of vendors (although they do provide a vendor packet). I also really liked how the bar had name brand and top shelf alcohol and a wide variety of beer which I found very unique. My favorite part about Hoosier Grove Barn was that is was very affordable and did not have any hidden fee's. The packet they provided was very straight forward and broke down how much everything cost (including gratuity costs). The staff at Hoosier Grove Barn were friendly and more than helpful with planning and preparing the wedding of our dreams!! The only negative I have to say about this venue is that it is your responsibility to clean up after the reception which can be a little bit of a hassle at the end of the night.

Emma Baum(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 23-08-2019 Hoosier Grove Barn was the first place we looked at for our wedding, and even before looking at other venues, we knew it was the one. We had our ceremony in the garden outside, which was so intimate and beautiful (and makes for amazing pictures after dark!). We got SO many compliments about how elegant, rustic, and clean the barn looked inside. One of the selling points for us was the use of the outdoor space, which we used for outdoor games and a s'mores pit at night. They even had a loft area available inside, which we used for Mario Kart :) Hoosier Grove is open to almost any type of decoration or addition, and are very accommodating for any type of wedding you may have.Vicki and Mallory were very helpful with questions before the big day, and Vicki was on top of everything the day of. After all the stress of putting everything together before the wedding, Hoosier Grove made the actual wedding day run so smoothly, we could finally relax and enjoy everything!

A bartender and all of the beverages, including premium liquor, is included. We even had a “specialty” drink added for our wedding theme at no additional cost.Mallory and Vicki were both wonderful every step of the way helping us in the beginning with recommendations for local hotels with free shuttles for our guests to/from the venue, florists, caterers, DJ’s, officiants, photo booths, and hair/makeup artists. Throughout the planning process they immediately answered our endless questions, allowed us to spend time at the venue to take measurements and test out equipment (we shared a video during the reception), and even offered additional ideas for our theme. Their enthusiasm was contagious!The day of the wedding flew by flawlessly!

Mallory goes above and beyond the responsibilities of a day of event coordinator and truly will do anything in her power to make your day the most amazing day of your lives. Our wedding was VERY DIY and when we booked the venue a little less than a year out from our wedding date we had NO IDEA the amount of prep we had signed ourselves up for. Mallory held our hand through early planning steps and truly was a Godsend to have around in the weeks leading up to the big day (PRICELESS to have there ON our wedding day). She was instrumental in guiding our family and friends who were helping us out with decorations and dj-ing through the process of putting on our wedding, and her staff was no less amazing. We got nothing but constant compliments about how well put together everything was and how beautiful the property and the barn were.Aside from INCREDIBLE SERVICE and STAFF, Hoosier Grove Barn was by far THE BEST VALUE for a rustic-modern barn style wedding in the Chicago Area. You would be hard-pressed to find another venue of this caliber that provides everything they do for their price point.

There were severe lightning and thunderstorms on our wedding day so the staff had to set everything up inside; ceremony, cocktail hour and the reception and everything was amazing! None of my bridal party was at the venue to put me in my dress for our first look pictures (they were still getting hair and makeup done) but Mallory, the coordinator, helped me get in my dress. She was truly amazing! Every email was answered in a short amount of time, all of our questions and concerns were answered and they made everything stunning and perfect. We LOVED everything about Hoosier Grove Barn. Amazing staff, amazing service and very, very reasonably priced! We wouldn't change a thing about our experience.. The venue was beautiful and staff was fantastic! We would highly recommend! Reviewed on 20-10-2017
Meredith Chase(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 16-09-2017 The Hoosier Grove Barn is absolutely one of the BEST venues in the Chicagoland area! The service provided by the staff there is simply outstanding. The setting is beautiful and timeless. Our guests have been just raving about how unique (and fun!) our wedding was.From the moment we met Leslie at our first appointment, we knew this venue was different than other barn venues. We could tell after speaking with Leslie that he really understood what it would take to put on a flawless and seamless event. He takes a lot of pride in what he does.The flexibility with outside vendors allowed for us to stay on budget but not compromise on quality. I was pleased to find out beautiful chairs, colored linens and napkins, 5 hour top shelf bar, and an Event Coordinator was all included in the rental price of the barn. Mallory was our AMAZING wedding coordinator. She was professional, patient, and extremely knowledgeable when it came to planning our event. From start to finish, she was there every step of the way. We were so lucky to have her. I highly recommend every wedding couple looking for a unique and intimate venue take a look at the Hoosier Grove Barn! Reviewed on 04-10-2017
Kiersten Swartz(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 24-06-2017 We had our wedding on June 24th and couldn't have asked for a better venue! The barn has always had a special place in my heart because of all the community events held there in my home town. The campus is well-maintained, the schoolhouse is lovely, and the barn is beautifully lit inside. It's just so charming and romantic- all of our guests loved it!But I think what really sets Hoosier Grove apart from other venues is their flexibility and professionalism. Their coordinating staff is in constant communication ironing out details up until the big day (we were even planning from out of state!). They allow you to decorate in your own style (as much or as little as you want) and don't limit your catering options. They let you use their AV equipment (no rentals!), the package includes an open bar, and they set up the tables to your specifications. They offer suggestions and do everything they can to help you bring your vision to life.It really is an amazing and unique venue and we couldn't have asked for a better experience!!

Erin Jackson(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 25-11-2018 We got married at Hoosier Grove on September 2, 2017. Our wedding day went so smoothly thanks to the helpful staff who were on top of things all day. We received many compliments from our guests about how friendly and helpful all the staff members were. From the wedding coordinators, to the bartenders, and the custodial staff- they were all wonderful! We ultimately decided on having our wedding here due to the great price and everything that is included in that price. We realized how good of a deal it was after doing our research on similar venues. The only cons of this venue is that the actual barn doesn't hold that many for the dinner portion so if you are planning on having over 100 guests you will have to purchase a tent as well. Also, since our wedding was on a Saturday, we didn't have the option to decorate the night before so, that all had to be done all the morning of which was a little hectic. However, we were made fully aware that that would be the situation before booking so there were no surprises. It was also nice that my bridesmaids and I were able to get ready in the loft area where I was able to oversee the decorating and everything. Overall, the entire day was beautiful and we had a blast!

Annie Safranski(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 11-08-2017 BEST WEDDING VENUE EVER!!! We had our wedding at this location last week and I just cannot rave enough about how amazing it was. The location was BEAUTIFUL, the staff was friendly, and so SO helpful. Leslie, Vicki, Mallory, Donna, and all of the staff were amazing from start to finish, and our guests were raving all night, and still are about how great of a night it was. People were even taking selfies with the bartenders because they were so cool! Literally not one thing went wrong on our big day, and we owe that all to the team at Hoosier Grove Barn. I would recommend this venue to anyone and everyone I know getting married! And you just cannot beat the price, especially in the Chicagoland area! Reviewed on 22-08-2017
Rachel Druschel(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 08-07-2017 The Hoosier Grove Barn staff made our wedding a stress free day! We met a few times prior to the big day to build a time line, and then our amazing coordinators Mallory and Vicki were there the day of to ensure everything went smoothly. This is the perfect venue for having your entire wedding at one location. We had the ceremony in the garden, cocktails outside in the courtyard, and the reception in the barn. The barn (and entire campus) is BEAUTIFUL so we hardly needed to buy additional decorations - we just bought enough to add a personal touch. THANK YOU Hoosier Grove Barn and staff for helping to make our wedding an amazing day!! Reviewed on 22-07-2017
Anonymous (bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 16-06-2017 Hoosier Grove Barn was an amazing venue! They were very flexible with changes and helped every step of the way for planning. The guests loved the beautiful barn and outside grounds. We had the ceremony on the school house steps and it was a perfect setting. The bartenders and on-site staff were super friendly and helpful and made the night run smoothly. I cannot say enough good things about this place! :) The only downfall was that there isn't a specific bridal suite, and while the loft is perfect for getting ready, but there isn't a place to lock up belongings for the night.

Jackie Baker(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 17-06-2017 We do not even know where to begin thanking the staff at the Hoosier Grove Barn for all of their hard work and dedication to make our wedding day the greatest day possible; they are a truly exceptional staff as well as an amazing group of individuals.Throughout the process, we felt as though we were working with family; Vicki and Mallory were so hands-on and patient; whenever I had a question, which was frequently, they would immediately respond in full-detail.The day of our wedding went seamlessly; we did not have to worry about any details which was such a relief. We wanted to have our ceremony on the steps of the schoolhouse, and it started pouring rain an hour before the ceremony time. Vicki and Mallory ran around outside in the rain, communicating with the appropriate people, to be sure that the other vendors waited until it stopped raining to conduct the ceremony. Sure enough, we held the ceremony outside just like we had dreamed of doing. The venue itself is stunning and unique; we are still receiving compliments from guests about how beautiful the property was. Overall, working with the staff at the Hoosier Grove Barn enhanced the experience of getting married; they all made it such a fun and stress-free process. We cannot recommend this venue enough!

Monique Medina(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 06-05-2017 Highly Recommend!We got married on May 6th 2017 at Hoosier Grove Barn and it was simply a wonderful day! I couldn't be happier with how everything turned out and having our wedding on the beautiful grounds of HGB was just perfect! First of all I want to thank the wonderful wedding coordinators who made our day happen- Mallory, Leslie and Vicki were helpful, friendly, super accommodating, idea filled and reassuring that the day would be great- and it was!! I went to the barn many times to get ideas on how I wanted it set up and every time everyone was so helpful. Our weather for the day originally wasn't looking too good and we had to make a last minute decision to rent a tent for the ceremony so we met with Leslie and Mallory and went thru the logistics of setup and \"the look\" and we decided to not do the rent over our ceremony site but instead to put the tent on the lawn as a backup plan and I'm so glad we listened because we ended up luckily having a beautiful sunny day and were able to have addtl seating in the tent for people to avoid the sun and our Groomsmen hung out there prior to the ceremony and it just turned out great! For the best bang for your buck I highly recommend Hoosier Grove Barn - our bridesmaids got ready in the barn Loft area, it was perfect for hair/makeup and mimosas :) we had a group of people help with our table and decor set up, Mallory was always around keeping us up to date, there are so many options to have your ceremony at on the grounds - we chose their newer garden area and it was just so perfect! Picture taking areas are endless and our guests had space to linger and walk around and enjoy the area! Making room for the dance floor was done in the blink of an eye and none of the guests were too bothered - the sound for the DJ was good and the Bartenders were even better! I heard nothing but good reviews from my family and friends about the service , servers and the bartenders keeping those drinks flowing haha! We had just the best time and it was a beautiful great day at a wonderful wedding venue- I couldn't have been happier with how everything turned out- thank you so much Hoosier Grove Barn!!Sincerely,Monique and Jordan Peterson Reviewed on 12-06-2017
Renea Falvo(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 20-05-2017 We had our wedding on May 20th and everything was perfect from the time we first looked at the barn to the day it was perfect. The staff is great to work with and very accommodating. Leslie, Vickie and Mallory everyone was great! We had to change the ceremony from being outside to inside the day off the wedding due to rain and cold weather, ended up being better than we expected in the school house. All of our guests kept talking about the barn as well. Hoosier Grove is a great place and I would recommend to anyone. Reviewed on 07-06-2017
Keri Frederick(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 26-05-2017 After getting married at HGB last night I needed to wake up this morning and tell everyone how wonderful it is here and how helpful, accommodating and flexible the staff is. My planned outside ceremony was changed to inside at the last moment due to weather and they pulled it all off. Looking back there was no reason for the worry and stress leading up to the day because they had it all together! If i could do it all over again I wouldn't change a thing! Thank you, thank you, a million times thank you to Leslie, Mallory, Donna, Vicki, and everyone else that had a hand in preparing for this day. The bar staff was excellent! Brian took care of everyone and my guests complimented on how interactive they were and remembered what they wanted! It was better than I could have imagined! Reviewed on 06-06-2017
