Malachi Ratliff(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 07-10-2022 Red Barn Chapel will forever hold such a special place in my heart. Originally, looking for venues was so stressful to me, because no place felt personal or special enough for what I was envisioning. I had dreamed of my fairytale ‘happily ever after’ wedding day since I was a little girl, it had to be perfect! And the moment my mom and I drove down the long lane leading up to this sweet barn, we knew this was the place. Outside, it has a homey and quaint charm.. with its classic red and white colors surrounded by picturesque farmland and little pond. And inside, you step into a whimsical, romantic, cozy space—perfect for an intimate wedding. I do not say this lightly… but my wedding was everything I dreamed of, and I am so grateful for this endearing place to cherish in our memories and photos for the rest of our lives.

Gigi Ratliff(other)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 07-10-2022 Red Barn Chapel is a bargain and a blessing!!!!!! The barn drew me in from the moment I saw it a stone’s throw away. The scenery was incredible in every direction and the rolling hills, sweetheart swing, pond, breathtaking sunsets and charming paths all provided multiple photo opportunities for my son and his bride. The large outdoor covered porch area was so pretty and convenient for the rehearsal dinner the night before the big day. The bathrooms were spacious and clean and large enough for the groomsmen to get ready in. The kitchen was large and provided great space for food prep. The bridal suite was private and the perfect space for the wedding party ladies to change in and store personal items. The barn and grounds were even to walk on and easily wheelchair accessible with parking for same. The charm and beauty inside were simply magical. The fireplace added a special glow and warmth for the chilly October wedding. The facility is so well decorated and organized, you literally could save yourself a ton of money in decor alone. I could go on and on but this is a must see if you’re considering a wedding and/or reception here. The owners and the manager were amazing and extremely accommodating. Our family and guests loved the venue and are still commenting about how lovely it was. 💝 Reviewed on 01-12-2022
