    Wonderful venue

    Barnett On Washington was the perfect venue for our wedding. Joe was super easy to talk to and made sure I had the wedding of my dreams, even with last minute requests. The venue was definitely one of my most favorite - the space was beautiful and the staff was so attentive. It was worth every penny, and I would highly recommend Barnett On Washington to any couple looking for a wonderful wedding venue.

    Bride

    Barnett On Washington was the perfect venue for our wedding. From the very beginning, their team was incredibly responsive, helpful, and provided constant check-ins to ensure we felt supported throughout the planning process. On the day of, they went above and beyond to help us with an unexpected emergency, and everything was executed perfectly. The space itself is absolutely stunning - beautifully decorated with a classic, timeless style that our guests raved about. We received so many compliments on the venue and the staff as a whole. Barnett On Washington truly helped make our special day everything we could have hoped for and more.

    The Best Venue

    The Barnett was the BEST choice for a wedding venue. It is so beautiful and all of our guests adored it. You barely have to decorate because it is so pretty. It is small and intimate and the stairs were perfect to have our wedding party come down. They have both an indoor and outdoor bar and had fantastic bartenders. There is a secure parking lot and they do offer valet as an add on. Working with Joe was seriously the best. He is so helpful and makes the process so much more fun.
