The barn wedding trend hasn’t changed much over the years. Instead, this venue style continues to alter itself by offering up a flexible space to couples who can create their own venue however they want.
Here are just a few reasons why you should consider hosting your wedding at a barn.
Barns Offer up A Ton of Space
If you choose to host your ceremony and reception at the same venue, a barn setting is a perfect place. You can have an outdoor ceremony and bring the party inside for dinner and dancing.
Barns Offer Brides A Blank Canvas
You can pair any color scheme with the natural walls and floors found in most barns. And, the high ceilings and open space allow for any decor your heart desires.
If you’re going for whimsical feel and look, you could hang string lights or lanterns.
Barns Can Be Rustic, or Luxurious
We all know what to expect from a ballroom, hotel or country club wedding. With a barn setting, you’re able to decorate it however you like (pending the venue). Which means you could add string lights and balloons for a more traditional feel. Or, you could bring out more of the rustic, countryside feel.
Your wedding venue should match your personality, and that’s exactly what a barn venue can do.
There’s History Here
And, historic venues are a hot venue trend for 2018! Why not fit in two types of venues into one?
“This year, we are seeing couples lean toward a traditional, timeless look or an urban, eclectic look.” Abby Gallagher of Blue Orchid Events & Design in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, “Couples are looking for a unique venue.”
Barn venues offer couples the space to decorate and host all of their family and friends for the wedding ceremony and reception.
The Landscape Offers Endless Photo Opportunities
Open fields, sunsets, and flowers, rustic background, or under the stars. With a barn wedding, you’re able to find so many backdrops and settings that will ensure that your big day is one to remember.
Barn Weddings Have More Fun
More couples are looking to create an experience for their guests. Of course, we should all expect to have a fun evening out at any wedding celebration, but a barn venue offers more space for guests to roam indoors and outdoors.
There’s just something about a barn wedding that tells your guests they’re in for a good time.
And, the barn venue offers up opportunities that you may not find at a venue in the city, such as fire pits, yard games and animals roaming the fields.
