With screen doors and a stone patio facing the Sheepscot River, guests enjoy cocktails overlooking the water. A fire pit near the water rounds out the evening with guests enjoying the outdoors while sitting in our adirondiack chairs or next to the fire.

2017's Most Stunning Barns Across The USA
There’s something pretty wonderful about a wedding at a barn. You’re often away from the city, hidden from the world, and surrounded by nature. The sun stretches its beams in full during the ceremony and the moon watches over the festivities of the reception. It’s a really good deal. We love all kinds of barns, from peaceful forest scenes in the Pacific Northwest to sprawling lawn offerings in the South. There’s a storybook quality to them and it always seems like the most welcoming atmosphere and spirited celebration around. That’s why we put together the latest edition of this annual collection. Make sure to check out the previous editions of our favorite wedding barns in America as well, because it seems like that’s where the best times happen.  By: Jake Kilroy
