We had our wedding at the Barley Room in October and it was wonderful! Beautiful venue and the price point especially for the area is great. The bridal suite was perfect to get ready in. We loved being able to choose all of our vendors and make the space our own. Clai and Ann are very easy to work with. We are so happy we chose to have our wedding here :)

  • Up to 150 guests
  • All-inclusive
  • Indoor & outdoor
  • Starts at $3,625

You’re not looking for overly formal or a wedding experience like everyone else’s. You want a space that feels warm, inviting, and comfortable where guests can relax and celebrate from dinner through the last song. You’re drawn to laid-back elegance, personalized touches, and a classy-casual atmosphere that feels welcoming, not stuffy. You want flavorful, comforting food that gives guests choices while keeping the mood fun, social, and easygoing. You appreciate a local, family-run business and a team that is approachable, organized, and easy to work with — people who guide you through the planning, communicate clearly, and make everything feel less overwhelming. You want your wedding to feel like a joyful gathering, not a production. Great food, genuine hospitality, transparent pricing, and a comfortable atmosphere matter more to you than rigid traditions. You want your guests to leave feeling cared for and ready to rave about what an incredible time they had.

As a newly engaged bride-to-be, deciding who to work with is an overwhelming experience. There are SO many options and wedding expos.. phew! The Enchanted Forest's all inclusive package helped take a huge amount of stress off of my shoulders. Knowing that the venue, catering, linens, tables, cutlery, servers, bartenders and chairs were ALL taken care of... it was the peace of mind I needed to be able to really enjoy being engaged and enjoying the time leading up to the big day. I recommend this venue to anyone that wants to know that you'll have everything you need, without coordinating with 10 different vendors to make it happen. Thank you Steve & Laurie!

As the Mother of the Bride, you want everything to be beautiful and meaningful for your daughter—while still being able to relax and truly enjoy the celebration. I was so grateful to experience exactly that at my daughter’s wedding. Working with Kari as our planner was a wonderful experience. She made the entire process feel easy and fun, while paying close attention to every detail that ensured the wedding ran seamlessly. I joined both video planning consultations, and her well-organized, thoughtful approach made each meeting productive and enjoyable. Most importantly, Kari delivered on everything she promised—and more. Her husband, Mark, is an exceptional chef who created the most delicious food. Along with his friendly and professional staff, he treated us to a lively Italian feast at the rehearsal dinner and a truly sumptuous dinner on the wedding night. The food was unforgettable. Throughout the evening, we received countless compliments on the wedding—from the atmosphere to the service to the incredible meal. The venue’s gazebo is especially magical—a wonderfully romantic setting that feels perfect for photos and dreaming about the future. One look at the photos and you know you’ve discovered a truly special place. We will cherish these memories for many years to come. Thank you, Kari and Mark, for creating such a beautiful and unforgettable experience!

Our event ran smoothly and their staff exceeded our expectations. I highly recommend getting one of their coordinator packages because it will help you and them plan your big day. Megan Westrup was our coordinator and she made sure every single detail was taken care of, she also made a few fun suggestions that made our event unique and special! One of our many favorite things was that they have the getting-ready suites onsite which was a big plus for us and our wedding party. We also got their DJ service and Terry and Preston were amazing! My main concern was having a DJ that could incorporate both of our cultures (American and Mexican) and they totally got our vibe. Our guests spent the whole night dancing!

Milford Hills Hunt Club was the perfect venue for our wedding day. We primarily communicated with them over email which was always prompt and detailed. The outdoor space was gorgeous and made for a beautiful ceremony backdrop. The indoor space is on the smaller side but worked well for our wedding of about 150 guests. Heidi, the on-site coordinator, was phenomenal - her organization and communication really allowed my husband and I to relax and soak in being newlyweds. The food provided by Milford Hills was delicious and having the ceremony, reception and catering all handled by one vendor streamlined the planning process.

We got married at Mercantile Hall on 11/2/2024, and it was an absolute dream! The coordinator packages are worth every penny—Stephanie stepped in during the final weeks and went above and beyond, she and the staff even brought drinks to the head table and our parents during dinner. The in-house services are so convenient, and the new getting-ready suite is gorgeous and perfect for a relaxing morning. The entire team was incredible throughout our two-year planning process—fun, professional, and detail-oriented. Every vendor had told us how amazing they are to work with, and they see why as they executed our day flawlessly. The venue is stunning, spacious yet intimate, and our guests haven’t stopped complimenting it. Merc. Sound handled our DJ, and Nate was fantastic! **Bonus for pet parents: Merc is pet-friendly, and our pups were so welcomed, making the day extra special. Mercantile Hall exceeded every expectation and made our vision a reality. Worth every dollar—highly recommend!

My husband and I got married at Western Lakes Golf Club 5/4/24 and it was incredible. Food was amazing, staff were very friendly. The only downside for why I took off a star was because of the day of coordinator provided with the venue. She was great leading up to the day of the wedding but on the wedding day I saw her twice and then never saw her again. She never introduced herself to my husband, never made sure we were lining up for the ceremony or anything. Never checked in on us. I’m the one that noticed we should be getting lined up which should have been the coordinator doing it. But overall, it was a great experience.

We came across this venue and from the moment we walked in the doors we were in awe. From the old ticket booth to the beautiful wood bar, the stage and the stunning chandelier you can see from the outside, it is so very special. Everyone including our vendors couldn’t stop talking about how great the venue was. The owners were also great to work with and could tell they loved their venue and it’s rich history. Bonus you get a great bridal room to get ready, a quaint rehearsal area having it the entire weekend was so appreciated!
