Bride
We could not be happier with our wedding day at Blue Dress Barn! The most magical venue, that speaks for itself. Our guests kept gushing on how spectacular the grounds. Amelia (the owner) is extremely responsive and helpful with connecting you with the absolute best vendors in the area. The day of barn staff is so friendly and ensures that everything runs smoothly.
The most beautiful wedding venue!
We got married at the Blue Dress Barn this summer and our entire wedding day was like a fairytale--we still can't get over how beautiful everything was. The greenery and grounds of the BDB are unmatched and our guests couldn't stop commenting on how beautiful everything was. Amelia is helpful and easy to work with and Georgia is lovely as well. The barn staff left the florals up on the arch and in the barn from the night before, which was such an incredible surprise because they were so gorgeous. The getting ready areas for the bridesmaids and groomsmen had so many beautiful & intentional details that made it so special for us. The venue is also well known by other vendors in the area as well since it's been around for so long (23 years!), and so working with our catering staff (Classic Catering), photography (Spencer Penfield) and DJ (DJ Jennefa) was a breeze. If we could do it all over again, we wouldn't change a single thing. We feel so grateful we were able to spend our favorite day with all of our friends and family at this beautiful venue! Thank you, Amelia!
Venue of dreams
From the moment we first spoke with the team at Blue Dress Barn, we were impressed by their thoughtful, warm, and thorough communication style. The venue itself is truly unique - nestled in a gorgeous natural setting that required minimal additional decor to create a stunning, customizable backdrop for our wedding day. On the day of, the staff went above and beyond to ensure everything was exactly as we had envisioned, even setting extra decor featuring our names. We were thrilled to see a recap video they made on their social media the next morning! We will cherish that forever. Blue Dress Barn provided an incredible value, with many local vendor options recommended by the team, and a space so naturally beautiful that we didn't need to worry about overdoing the decor. We received so many compliments from our guests that it was the best wedding venue they had ever seen. We feel so lucky to have celebrated our special day at Blue Dress Barn. Photos: 430Studios
The Best of the Best!
Words truly can’t describe the incredible experience that we had at the Blue Dress Barn! The entire team and staff were so helpful to us leading up to our big day. Their communication is unmatched and they made our wedding day so special. The grounds were GORGEOUS for our October 4th wedding date and everything ran like a well-oiled machine. The employees and Georgia made sure everything ran smoothly from start to finish. We can’t count how many people came up to us and told us they could not believe all of the natural beauty from this venue. It is truly stunning and THE dream venue to be married in. We were on cloud 9 all evening (and still are)! Our guests are still raving about it! Amelia was a dream to work with! Thank you, BDB, for EVERYTHING! We will remember our wedding day and how amazing it was FOREVER!!!
