About this venue

Nestled along the river in the Blue Ridge Mountains is a scene from your dream wedding. The venue itself is a dreamy post-and-beam style barn with elegant touches. The barn sits on over 100 acres of private, natural beauty where mountain tops, river bends, gardens and watercolor skies become the backdrop to your big day. The barn boasts its own beauty with soaring 30-foot ceilings, Swarovski chandeliers and romantic string lights; you must see the barn to truly appreciate the stunning aesthetic. As you get ready for the most beautiful day of your life, relax in separate party dressing rooms with plenty of seating, excellent lighting and mirrors. A stone patio adjacent to the barn is where many memories will be made with evening lighting and a built-in bar. A beautiful, wide aisle flows from the cocktail area to the ceremony site. At the end of the aisle, a gorgeous pergola meets you at the pond where you can see and hear the steady stream of the fountain.

    BNR venue has seen to crossing their "ts" and dotting their "i's" it takes the whole day to the next level..... When choosing a venue, its good to know that you will be working with professionals experienced in weddings and the venue! Paula, Beth, and Caroline are a dream to work with. Given that we've been servicing this venue since they opened, I believe we're qualified in our assessment! and

    I would recommend the Barn on New River 100 times over. This place is truly magical! I cannot imagine having the most special day of our lives at any other location. The owner is amazing and so incredibly attentive throughout our entire process. This place exceeds all expectations!

    This is hands down the best venue in the blue ridge mountains (coming from an Ashe County local couple)!! This venue is so stunning and needs minimal decoration to make it feel elegant and classy but still have a relaxed atmosphere. Paula is filled with so much wedding knowledge and provides a list of recommended vendors, which would be great for those who are not local. Paula is quick to respond to texts and calls and always eased my mind. The bridal suite, groomsman room, and honeymoon suite were so convenient to have right on site. The cabin on the farm was clean, spacious, and has everything your family/friends need. Mark, Paula’s husband, works so hard during the week prior to the wedding to maintain the landscaping and beautiful dahlia garden. I would also highly recommend using Caroline Orcutt as your wedding coordinator (add on service). She is beyond organized and makes sure everything runs smoothly the day of your wedding. She is quick to response to emails, texts, and calls. She also gave us tons of suggestions that would fit in our budget. We could not recommend this venue more and thank the Domske’s and Caroline for all they did for us to make our day so special!!
