A Barnwood History
Barnwood was established in 2020 as a premiere event space. With
offerings in Weddings, Corporate Events and Other large gatherings
it was designed to offer exceptional guest experiences.
Stop The Car!
There was a For Sale Sign in the
front yard...
We (Julie and Dave) had driven
by the property many times. Julie
commented if it ever goes up for sale
we should buy it! And there it was,
a For Sale Sign in the Front Yard.
What’s even more crazy is that the real
estate broker was the best man in our
wedding!
We Bought The Farm!
In 1995, sold our house and moved to the country...
The existing farmhouse
is a side by side duplex.
We renovated to t our
growing family. The farm
had a small red barn we
used for storage of our
tractor, lawn mower, and
other garden supplies.
This is now the site of your
wedding venue.
Saying “I Do” to Barnwood
Working The Land!
Dave has planted thousands of
trees...
Both Julie and Dave have a passion
for nature and the outdoors. Julie
expresses hers in creating more and
more gardens. Dave expresses his
through planting more and more trees.
He has planted thousands of trees
turning the property from a corneld
to a woodland nature preserve!
Sharing It With Others!
From nature eld trips
and scout outings...
As the property became more
wooded and more wildlife found
their homes here, we wanted
to share it with others. We had
school eld trips, scout outings
and even camp outs.
Current Chapter!
Sharing our experience
and our property to
make your event special...
Dave has years of corporate
marketing experience and has
run a successful business since
2004. Julie has been teaching
young entrepreneurs and
planning corporate events since
2008. With their 2 grown sons,
they started Barnwood Events in
2020 to serve as the backdrop
to make your event as special as
you.

Tessa and Jake
May 2023 - Heather Maves Photography
“We got married on May 20th and I am condent in saying
that Barnwood Events is the most incredible place for a wedding.
EVERYTHING about the venue, the people running the show, and
the beautiful facilities is top notch. We cannot thank Barnwood
enough for all they did for us to make our day absolutely magical. I
wish I could relive the day over and over again!
Special shout outs to Dave, Julie, and our day-of coordinator Ellie
for the hours and hours and hours of time and energy they put in
to help make everything go perfectly. Jake & I and our families will
always be able to look back on this day and enjoy all the memories
that went with it. I would recommend Barnwood Events and their
team to anyone! THANK YOU!!”

Leona and Caughey
June 2023 - Sable Park Photography
“Julie, Dave, Alyssa, and the whole Barnwood family
and staff made our wedding an absolute dream. They were so
kind and helpful throughout the whole process and made sure
we had everything we needed. We loved their extensive decor
inventory and the staff assistance with setup and tear down is
invaluable. Not to mention their bartenders make fantastic drinks!
They all clearly know
what they’re doing and
it couldn’t have been
easier for our vendors to
all coordinate and get
what they needed. We
also can’t recommend
Alyssa (and the other
Barnwood coordinators)
enough for helping
make our ceremony and
reception so smooth.
We felt like we were
being taken care of by
family. Thank you so
much!”

Brody and Shannon
August 2023 - Ebby L Photography
“My wife and I could not have asked for a better
location than Barnwood to host our wedding! Dave and Julie
were so kind and welcoming when we rst toured the venue.
Their excitement for Barnwood helped fuel our own excitement
and help us visualize ourselves getting married at this beautiful
location. There are multiple locations that you can choose for
your ceremony depending on your preference, we choose
the beautiful giant oak tree out front. The weeks leading up to
our wedding; Julie and the coordinator that we hired through
Barnwood, Taylor, were so willing to answer all of our questions
and helped us tremendously leading up to the wedding day.
We opted to rent the attached "farmhouse" which was a super
convenient option for the guys to all get ready and have a place
to hangout before the ceremony. Barnwood also has contracts
with some local hotels for shuttles which prevents the hassle of
your guests worrying about driving back to their hotel after a
long night. The day of the wedding went so smoothly, thanks to
Taylor. My wife and I knew we were in good hands and that we
didn't need to stress at all because Taylor handled everything
with our various vendors. We loved everything about Barnwood
and you will too!”
