My spouse and I met during Hampshire College orientation, and we graduated with many fond memories from parties and concerts held at The Red Barn. Returning to the venue ten years after first stepping inside, with the express purpose of getting MARRIED, was equal parts exciting and overwhelming. Thankfully, our wonderful coordinator, Ella, was with us throughout the planning process, pre-wedding rehearsal, and the big day itself, eager to hype up our excitement while taming our overwhelm. Considering the fact that we were planning from out of state, the level of support from Ella and the rest of The Red Barn team was absolutely invaluable. The staff was fantastic, the food was delicious, and the venue was beautiful. 10/10, would absolutely recommend The Red Barn for anyone looking for a wedding venue in Western Massachusetts.

Amazing!! Our guests are still talking about the wedding!! Magic! 5-star service. Where to even start?? From day one our coordinator, Victoria, was amazing and so responsive. My requests and emails were probably a full-time job. On the day of, she helped set up decor and the escort cards. She was my right -hand woman during the event like grabbing my wrap during photos, always asking if I ate or drank water. She brought me tea and waters during the night. She kept the party on schedule and helped move the night along seamlessly. She worked collaboratively with all my vendors. She helped fully execute our vision. When there were some snags with the vendors products she did all she could to fix the issue. The wait staff and bar staff were absolutely wonderful. They were so sweet to our family and friends. They looked after my elderly family members which we really appreciated. They checked in with me to see if I needed anything. At the end of the night, Ann and others kicked it into high gear by helping us, very gently, pack up everything and load the cars. We know they didn’t have to. Above and beyond. And wow, The food was amazing with delicious gluten free options. Everyone raved about the food… still talking about it. The seasonal, farm to table menu was outstanding. We highly recommend the ale braised beef and salmon. Absolutely get one of the speciality drinks. We did the barn brew.The grounds and barn is so magical with the lights and the added garland outside makes it even more special. We really didn’t have to worry about added any decor. They have such affordable packages for any financial budget. Reviewed on 14-01-2024

Everything was so amazing that I don’t even know where to begin. Our experience with the Red Barn and all of their staff far exceeded our expectations.

We cannot recommend The Red Barn highly enough! We were lucky enough to have Ella as our coordinator and she was an absolute DREAM to work with. From the time we booked until the end of our perfect day she was there keeping us on track and solving problems that had not even existed yet. She did an amazing job taking our decorations and making the space come to life and was incredibly flexible and efficient when the weather decided to take a turn for the worst at the last minute. Despite all morning being beautiful and sunny, Ella was still concerned about the chance of rain so she set up the ceremony space BOTH inside and outside. This genius move allowed us to decide where our ceremony would be held literally as the bus was pulling in with our guests. Our wedding day would not have been nearly as perfect without Ella! The space itself is beautiful and having the tent over the deck gave guests the perfect place to cool down after hitting the dance floor. Our guests are still talking about the food. You seriously do not expect meals at a wedding to be THIS good. The bar staff also get a huge shoutout, they were friendly and worked so quickly there was hardly ever a line. If you are considering booking The Red Barn for your big day we 100% recommend them. Reviewed on 30-11-2023

We live in another state and I cannot stress enough how helpful the Red Barn team was throughout the planning process with us not being in close proximity to the venue, or any of our family/friends/wedding party. The in-house catering made our lives a lot easier too but on top of that, the food was incredible! Our guests are still raving about the short rib. Our day-of-coordinator was Victoria and she was an absolute pleasure to work with. She was on top of it through the planning process, kept us on schedule day of, and took charge of whatever I needed her to!Of course, the venue is gorgeous overlooking Mt Holyoke Mountain Range but the team is what really makes this place shine.

My husband and I got married at the Red Barn in early September and had a magical ceremony and reception. Our coordinator, Brittany, was supportive and communicative every step of the way. On the actual day, she was such a calming presence and somehow able to anticipate what we needed even before we said anything to her! The entire staff was wonderful too — so friendly and professional. The venue was breathtaking. We had the ceremony outside, under the tree, which was spectacular, but the barn was also beautiful with twinkling lights and the perfect ambiance for dinner and dancing. The bridal suite was also very comfortable for getting ready prior to the wedding. We had an amazing experience and highly recommend choosing the Red Barn and working with Brittany for your special day! Reviewed on 14-09-2023

We looked at a few places but they were much too expensive. My husband found The Red Barn on the Knot; we went and had a tour and ended up booking it two days later! It has everything you could possibly want without breaking the bank. Although it fits the “rustic barn” category, it is also very classy and elegant. The old wooden floors paired with the beams and the white lights are just a dream come true. Cocktail hour was on a beautifully renovated deck. Our ceremony was out by the big, beautiful “ceremony tree”, which was surrounded by fields of tall grass with mountains in the background, all of which was gorgeous for photos. During planning, we attended a food tasting at The Res Barn, catered by Seth Myers catering, and it was delectable. The food that was served on our wedding day was equally, if not more, delicious.

Our ceremony was outside by the big oak tree with the reception inside the red barn. The bridal suite is an amazing space with plenty of room for the whole bridal party (plus extras) to get ready. We had the hair and makeup artists come to the venue and it worked out great. Brittany was a fantastic wedding coordinator, always responding quickly to emails - no matter how many you sent in a day :). And she was there early the day of the wedding to help set up everything. She's very organized and helpful, but most importantly friendly. She never made it feel like you were a crazy bridezilla. I would definitely recommend adding the lights to your package, it made it feel extra special inside. Highly recommended as a wedding venue! Reviewed on 17-11-2021

Jen Grabowski(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 23-10-2021 I got married at The Red Barn over the weekend and it was AMAZING. If you want a barn venue with amazing indoor/outdoor picture opportunities, look no further than The Red Barn. The staff was great to work with, especially our coordinator Katelyn. She made sure every detail was covered and was always available to answer any random question I had. One thing I loved about the Barn was the ability to make it my own. It was already such a beautiful spot to get married, but having the opportunity to bring in personalized decor (and having Katelyn handle set up exactly as I wanted it) made it that much more special. The food there is amazing - all i heard were great things about the apps, main dishes, cake and the ice cream bar :-). Getting ready at the Barn was awesome -- the space they have for you is so big. You have your own little kitchen area too, so bringing in food + drinks is so easy. Honestly, I have nothing but great things to say about this venue. I highly recommend checking them out.

Eloped during 2020 and ended up postponing the larger wedding a year, and finally celebrated it in August 2021 at the Red Barn. The venue was fantastic from every stage. Our coordinator was Brittany and she was always very responsive and kind, especially when we had a lot of last minute changes. The day was seamless and it gave us the opportunity to truly enjoy the event with our guests. Red Barn made so many things happen behind the scene to ensure that. Brittany was fantastic during the wedding, handling so many pieces that I thought we would have to juggle the day of. Red Barn bartenders and catering were fabulous as well - so sweet. Food was delish and we loved having the shortcake bar in lieu of cake.And then there's the venue itself. The bridal suite was the perfect spot for my partner and I and family/friends to hang before the event. The barn was perfect for our ~65 guests - comfortable, elegant, and charming.

Everything from the set-up to the food was perfect. I also loved getting ready in the newly-renovated bridal suite. It's super comfortable and made for great pictures! Even the things that we had concerns about turned out to be non-issues. For example, our guest count (120) was towards the upper limit for the space and we were worried that the barn might feel crowded. Luckily, our guests had plenty of room to dance and move around!

My search immediately started for one within a 2 hour range from our home and through many emails and calls I finally dwindled it down to visiting 3. Immediately after visiting the Red Barn we both knew this was the one. Not only are the grounds incredibly beautiful but they seemed to be the most stress free at the best value. My process started with my coordinator Bridget who was awesome and about halfway through I learned she was going to be leaving and I became incredibly nervous about who I would work with and if they would be as a great as Bridget. The transition was very smooth and i shortly after started working with Brittany. Brittany was amazing!!! You would never know that she was new to the Red Barn. She always had an answer for me and always responded to me right alway. Any requests I had or one of my vendors had, she would always help accommodate. During my wedding weekend this team was amazing. I never had to worry about anything and my guests were well taken care of. The venue has such beautiful areas to take pictures and to put up decorations. The food and drinks were great and all our guests had great things to say.

Catherine Elliott(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 07-06-2019 The Red Barn is a fantastic place to get married. First of all, the team there will make your wedding planning process so much easier without having to hire an independent planner. Isabel helped us early on and Emily took over closer to the event, and both were incredibly responsive and were invaluable to making the day take shape.Inside the Red Barn is a gorgeous venue but the real draw of the place is a majestic old oak tree that most ceremonies, ours included, are held under. Many of our guests remarked on how centering and awe-inspiring this tree was, and it truly provided a perfect anchor for an outdoor wedding. Cocktail hours typically take place in a covered porch that spills out onto the lawn, slowly bringing your guests indoors for the reception. Our guests loved the ability to be outside when it was nice and bright but to be able to retreat instead into the cozy barn during the reception. A number of guests continued to mill around the porch and grounds as dancing got started to have conversations in quieter spaces or just enjoy the outdoors.An added bonus is that the Red Barn partners with a catering company that provides all food and drink, and they also provide linens, plates/cutlery, and tables/chairs (we rented nicer chairs than the basic package provides, however). The barn offers lights that can be strung up indoors (additional fee) and works with a number of partner florists and other vendors. All of this helps to streamline planning and ensure that you get items that work well with the space for minimal effort.My wife and I are both so glad we went with the Red Barn for our special day!

B H(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 30-09-2017 We loved The Red Barn SO much. I will be highly recommending this venue to any new bride in Western Mass. Not only was this venue the perfect location for that New England fall wedding I was dreaming of, but the staff went above and beyond to ensure our day was flawless.I could not have asked for a better day of-coordinator than Bridget. She was extremely helpful, patient and kind throughout the entire process, but especially the day of the wedding, when it was pouring rain in the morning and I started worrying about having the ceremony outside. She immediately relieved all my stress when she explained that she was just going to set everything up inside so we could get married in the barn if necessary, but we could wait until up to an hour before to make the final call. By 4pm, the rain had let up, so we decided to proceed outside and they immediately wiped dry all the chairs up by the tree and rearranged the barn so it was ready for dinner and dancing and I didn't even have to think about it. Bridget and her staff had it all handled.Besides the amazing staff and how accommodating they were, the food was absolutely delicious (every guest told us how much they enjoyed dinner) and the venue was absolutely beautiful. The tree was a perfect backdrop for our ceremony and the surrounding views of the mountains were just breathtaking. And at night, those twinkly lights in the barn were truly magical - I will be reminicsing about how lovely our wedding was for a very long time. Reviewed on 05-10-2017

Heather Denno(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 19-09-2015 Our experience at the Red Barn was more than we could have hoped for, for an exceptionally affordable price. Our guests have not stopped calling us today complimenting the ceremony by the tree, the elegance of the barn, and most importantly, the food!! The food was exceptional!! We ordered the beef tenderloin that could be cut with a butter knife it was so tender. The mixed green salad with beets and feta was to die for. The salmon was perfectly cooked and the side of acorn squash was delicious, not overly buttery and cooked to perfection.Our experience was positive from the second the Red Barn was contacted. Isabel and Bridget, with whom I worked to coordinate things mostly via email, were responsive, and exceptionally timely in responding. They answered all questions asked and they were both very accommodating. Most importantly, the venue was flexible in terms of what I was looking for, pricing, and any changes that needed to be made.Isabel and Bridget were kind, respectful and presented with excellent demeanors. When I was setting up, Bridget answered all questions that were asked and was as accommodating and professional as she was via email.We would highly recommend the Red Barn for your wedding. Particularly, if you are looking for something elegant, intimate and beautiful that is accommodating. What I particularly enjoyed most as the bride was that it took little to no decorating for the venue to be beautiful. All we needed were the overhead lights. I had centerpieces I made and did my wedding on a budget. People were raving about how beautiful it was. It was the barn. If I had decorated, I felt like it would have been too much. The barn stands alone as a beautiful place to spend one of the most special days of your life.The only thing we were thinking is that we would have liked to have been offered the leftover food from the buffet, because there was much remaining. Mostly, we would have liked this because it was SO good, we would have hoped to have it for left-overs today. ~Heather and Dave, April 23rd, 2017 Reviewed on 24-04-2017
