    We had our wedding at The Barns at Wesleyan Hills on September 27th, 2025, and it was hands down the best day of our lives. From the moment we arrived to the moment we left, we were so well taken care of—saying everything was perfect is truly an understatement. Our day-of coordinator, Sean, was absolutely incredible. He was thoughtful, attentive, and seemed to know exactly what we needed before we even did. His calm and caring presence made the day flow seamlessly, and we couldn’t have imagined doing it without him. The entire staff was beyond kind, professional, and genuinely invested in making our day special. The food was unbelievable, the atmosphere was an absolute dream, and every detail came together perfectly. The Barns team supported us every step of the way during the planning process, always finding time to answer questions and accommodate our needs. We are endlessly grateful to The Barns for helping us create a day that we will cherish in our hearts forever. If you’re considering this venue—don’t hesitate. It’s pure magic.
