About this venue
Amazing, photogenic, the vibe here is relaxed, be who you are, have fun and celebrate life. This amazing huge barn built in 1947 with golden chandelier overlooking the head table is in it's own class. A very unique features of the barn is the second floor overlooking the head table for a gallery type feel. Outside is the flower garden with pergola where the outdoor wedding can take place. Then capping the evening relaxing by the gas firepit watching the sunset with the string lights overhead. Stay, relax and get prepared in your own bridal suite in the three bedroom farmhouse built in the 1890's as the gentlemen get ready in their own groomsmen quarters. One amazing aspect for the wedding package is it’s a standard three day booking. Families arrive on Friday and check out on Sunday. This gives them time to relax and take the whole experience in. Plus the time is spent making their wedding their own. This is the place for imagination and creativity to really shine.

Beautiful
From the moment my wife toured the venue she fell in love, and knew it was the place where we wanted to hold our wedding. The setting was breathtaking, the whole atmosphere felt like we were at a family farm and every single detail was impeccably maintained. The staff was beyond amazing: professional, responsive, and genuinely invested in making our day perfect. They worked seamlessly with our vendors and helped everything run smoothly from start to finish.

Dream Barn Wedding
My husband and I had our wedding reception at Englebrecht Farm last September and had to change many details last minute due to the pandemic. Chris was extremely flexible and understanding of our situation. He helped us safely plan our dream wedding and made sure everything went perfect for us. The barn is original, rustic and absolutely beautiful. You can really make it fit your vision with your decorations, lights, etc. You get access to the barn and farmhouse for the entire weekend of your wedding which takes out a lot of the stress and time constraints that usually occur. I can’t say enough good things about this place and the people who run it! If your looking for a rustic wedding venue in the area that is just down the road from a brand new hotel and several local businesses for your guests to enjoy, I highly recommend Englebrecht Farm!
