Welcome to our Barn

What started as a family dream has grown into a place where other families start theirs.

Tall Oaks Barn sits on land that was owned by the same family for over 100 years. When we decided to open our doors to weddings, our goals were to keep the character and charm, and to create a space where people could slow down and celebrate what matters most. At Tall Oaks Barn, we believe in treating our couples like family. We’re here to keep you calm, solve problems before they arise, and make sure your weekend feels as joyful and stress-free as possible.

Together we’ve poured our hearts into restoring the farmhouse and bringing new life to the original red bank style barn. Out here, things slow down. It’s easy to enjoy the open skies, warm light, and time with the people who matter most. We can’t wait for you to experience the peace and beauty that make this such a special place.

Very accommodating...

“We had the pleasure of having our daughters wedding reception at Tall Oaks Barn.  It was beautiful, unique and truly perfect.  Bob and Lindy are very sweet and easy to work with.  They are very accommodating and devoted to making sure everything is perfect.  We were able to go out as often we wanted to make plans and preparations. Our entire experience was absolutely wonderful.  This place is a hidden treasure and many guests commented on how amazing this venue is. It is a family home with a big heart which opens its doors to anyone looking for something special. When you love what you do you make a good job of it and this is why Tall Oaks Barn is so amazing. “

Fantastic to work with...

“We had our wedding ceremony and reception at Tall Oaks Barn in the spring of 2021 and there is no other place in our area that can compare, in my opinion. I loved absolutely everything about our experience. We were allowed ample time for setting up and decorating so I did not feel rushed at all. I was able to enjoy every moment. Having our ceremony and reception at the same location/venue was IDEAL and mentioned over and over by our guests, who appreciated not having to travel or waste time to start enjoying the festivities! Our guests were able to begin enjoying beverages and the nacho bar we provided while we were getting photos taken and mingling. Our guests absolutely enjoyed the country atmosphere, and our decorations and details pulled everything together perfectly to make it the wedding of our dreams. Lindy, Alyssa, and Lauren are fantastic to work with and they truly made us feel welcome in every sense. If you are considering Tall Oaks Barn for your event, I whole-heartedly give it 5 stars.”

Wonderful people...

“Tall Oaks Barn is absolutely stunning. Perfect for any special day. The owners went out of their way to ensure my best friends wedding day was perfect. They were all around wonderful people who have worked so hard to create a beautiful venue. You will not be disappointed. “
