    The venue is beautiful, with a mix of historical charm and modern features (including the beautiful, renovated reception room) and the benefit of being 3 minutes from the lighthouse for pictures. But what made it really worth it, for us, is how much help with planning the team gave from day one. They helped keep us on track throughout the planning process, had a great team of partnered vendors that we could choose to work with (taking some of the decision burden off us), and were very clear about the entire timeline for the wedding day. Most importantly, this translated into a seamless and very organized wedding day experience. We didn’t have to worry about us, or our guests, having to “fix” things throughout the day as everything was taken care of. They were also one of the few venues that were willing to accommodate our very low guest count of 30 people. This venue may not be the right place for people who are foodies and expecting a 5-star meal, but the food was tasty and hot the day of and our guests seemed happy, so for the price, I’d say it was well worth it.

    I cannot understate how happy I am with my experience at Barker House. The planning leading up to the wedding was easy and streamlined. The day of the wedding was stress free and wonderful. Would choose them again in a heartbeat for a reasonably priced, perfect wedding day.

    The Barker House by Wedgewood Weddings was a very simple and comfortable venue. I personally hate weddings and all the BS that comes with them so Barker House was perfect for me! They have preferred vendors so a bunch is included depending on what package you buy! They are also extremely competitive with their prices so you don't feel like you are completely getting screwed. With that in mind you do get what you pay for so if you are looking for a high end wedding this is not for you, but if your looking for an overall great process with minimal stress than I would 100% recommend using the Barker House!...one negative I will mention is use an outside vendor for photobooth, theirs is not good.
