Clients reviews about Briar Barns Event Space

If I could give this venue and it's owners 10 stars I would. My daughter got married there in August of '22. The outdoor ceremony site is stunning, exactly what she dreamed of! The reception and bar area is perfect for the amount of guests we had (140) and even though it was a sunny and warm day, the barns were not stuffy or too warm with all the openness and air flow. They even brought a portable air conditioner to the bridal suite so the girls didn't get too hot. We've had SO many compliments! There are so many beautiful areas in and around the venue for photos also. It's a photographers dream! There really is no other "barn" venue that compares, great job Denhams! ~ Cynthia B

I was one of the groomsmen in a wedding this past weekend. Tammy and Darryl went above and beyond for everyone at this wedding. I always run warm, and on multiple occasions they went out of their way to check and make sure I was comfortable and didn’t need anything. They treated everyone of us with this amazing hospitality and felt like a member of the wedding party by the end of the event. I have been to and a part of many weddings. This was by far the best experience I have had to date with a wedding planner and venue. I recommend this venue to anyone looking to get married, they do an amazing job and are truly awesome people! P.S. I bought myself one of those Costco (Yeti) fans 😉 ~ Logan B

Briar Barns was the perfect place for our magical day. We had an October 14 wedding with 118 guests that planned for outside but moved to inside ceremony day off (loved it)! The reception space was perfect for a big dance floor and comfortable seating! The decor was beyond any expectations, the ceremony space is intimate, the bridal suite is romantic, and the grounds are enchanting. Tammy and her husband were absolute gems to work with and our day went smooth without a hitch! We even had a cold and rainy day, and they managed to keep up dry and warm. Absolutely recommend! ~ Maddie P

We absolutely loved having our wedding at Briar Barns! This place was absolutely perfect for what we envisioned. The folks at Briar Barns were wonderful to work with as we planned a wedding from 3 states away in a pandemic. They made our planning process so much easier! We were blown away by the professional yet extremely friendly way they run their business. It felt like we were working alongside friends to create the perfect wedding day. All in all, we couldn’t be any happier with Briar Barns as the place we got married! ~ Jacob T

We had our wedding here in late June and LOVED IT! All of our guests loved our venue. It was beautiful, the staff was extremely kind, genuine, and helpful. I would highly recommend using their decor and having them set up & clean up even though it is an additional fee. Worth it! My only note would be that they can accommodate 200 but we had 160ish which was perfect and I think it would feel VERY cramped at 200. Other than that, this place is just whimsical and warm. Can’t recommend enough! ~ Lily S

We had to move our wedding date 3 times due to COVID and were in frantic search for an outdoor venue 3 months before our final date. We were frantic that we would not find something we loved as much as our first venue. Then we found Briar Barns. Tammy and her team were a dream to work with. From the beginning they blocked our date ASAP, jumped right in to take over all the changes, offered all their recommendations and expertise to help make our day more than we could ever have dreamed of. They answered all my questions quickly and helped to put all my worries at ease. The venue is stunning and well maintained, some of the prettiest bathrooms I have ever scene. The Briar Barns staff was so friendly the entire evening and felt like they were part of the family. They worked so well with all our vendors. All our guest kept coming up the entire night asking where we found this place and how much they loved it. I can not thank Briar Barns enough for saving our day and making it more than we could have ever hoped and dreamed of. It was a true blessing. ~ Paige R

Tammy, Derral and crew were great! Every time we went to the barns leading up to our wedding we were greeted by their personable, professional, and passionate personalities. As a bride & groom peace of mind was everything to us and these two brought it. We were able to share our vision with Tammy with only a few photos using her decor package she ran with it and wowed us. Briar Barns is truly a Sparta gem and we are so proud to see the way this team continues to make this venue so special. ~ Micaela K

10/10 beautiful venue! Tammy & Marissa were so great to work with. Along with the venue, they offer a huge variety of decor you can rent fpr your special day. We had our wedding last Friday and our guests could not stop raving about how absolutely stunning this venue is. There is free parking onsite, as well as a lovely loft for the bride & bridesmaids to get ready in, and a fun tent setup for the groom and groomsmen. ~ Bri R

I just got married here and it was such an amazing experience from start to finish! The owners were super sweet and easy to work with, always wanting to bring your vision to life. Everything was absolutely beautiful and I did not feel worried about things looking good. The variety of packages was nice as well since we opted to use our own decor. Highly recommend to anyone looking for the rustic outdoor wedding! ~ Jenna H

By word of mouth, we heard about Briar Barns and decided to check the event space out, and boy were we glad that we did! It had everything that we wanted: outdoor ceremony site, indoor ceremony site (in case of rain), and a beautiful barn to hold the reception. Tammy and her husband are wonderful to work with and Tammy was so helpful and did a wonderful job answering all of our questions. Thank you so much for hosting our special day! ~ Anna

We worked with Tammy and her crew at Briar Barns in May of 2022 and really appreciated how organized and well appointed everything was. From a caterers perspective it doesn't get much better than this. We truly felt like a team and were all working towards the same goal of providing our mutual client with a fantastic wedding day. Cheers to the Briar Barns crew for making our lives so much easier :) ~ Abigail S

Tammy's vision of Briar Barn allowed me to have my perfect wedding. The venue itself is absolutely gorgeous, and just being there makes me feel happy, special, and at peace. Both Tammy and Darryl and very laid back, personable, and helpful. They'll help you in any way needed through the whole wedding planning process. And you can tell they they LOVE what they do. I would recommend Briar to anyone. ~ Kaila W

A beautiful setting for a wedding and / or a reception! There is a man cave and a dressing area for the gals . The seating arrangement is large and beautifully lit with twinkle lights. The bathrooms are modern with a rustic flair. The owner was very accommodating and friendly. It's in a convenient location with ample parking. The reception I attended was magical! Briar's is the best barn west of Marne ! ~ Tami B

Recently had my wedding ceremony and reception here, and it was such a dream! The space is beautiful and has so many beautiful places for photos. Tammy and her team did an incredible job decorating and helping the wedding day go smoothly! They were so accommodating and helpful and ensured that every little detail was perfect. I cannot recommend them enough! ~ Mikayla B

The team at Briar Barns was so easy to work with! Planning a wedding amidst changing covid times brought frustration, but they were flexible and worked with us every step of the way! Tammy especially was very helpful and knowledgeable, and patient with my questions and requests. They were great at communication and we are so happy with how everything turned out! ~ Allison S

Great spot for a wedding ceremony and reception! The staff/owners are friendly and were hanging around helping answer questions during setup and teardown. Plenty of indoor space and the outside trails and parking were fine too. I liked the marriage of the rustic barn with the more modern patio area. Lots of fun to be had here if you need a quality spot for a celebration! ~ Nathan M

We held our wedding and reception here in October 2024. When we first visited Briar Barns, the venue immediately felt like "the one" to host our event. Not only is the venue rustic and beautiful, but the owners and staff are amazing - going above and beyond to help make our day a success. Highly recommended. ~ Jason B

We recently had our Wedding Ceremony and Reception at Briar Barns and we couldn't have asked for a better day. Tammy and the entire Briar team were a joy to work with. I would highly recommend the day coordinator service along with the decor rental. It made planning so much easier and kept the day stress free and fun. ~ Emily K

Absolutely breathtakingly beautiful. I went for a tour and had no choice but to book it for my wedding. If you're wanting a barn wedding I'd recommend touring. Pictures don't do it justice. Tami was amazing and overly helpful and made sure my day went well. I would 100% recommend looking at this venue. ~ Mallory M

Wow! I attended a wedding here this past weekend. The venue and various spaces are absolutely stunning. Truly so beautiful and charming. The barns couldn’t be more perfect. The owners are also the nicest and most helpful people in the world, they are the BEST! This is such a special place. ~ Shaylyn S

What a gorgeous venue! And the owners are so kind and helpful. I was impressed at the number of fans that were placed all around the barn to keep guests cool on a warm summer day. When the sun went down the barn became even more magical with the chandeliers and string lights! ~ Michele W

I got married here about a week ago now and it was such a seamless experience. I genuinely loved the venue and the owners and they made my wedding day perfect. We toured the space last year in June of 2024 and started the planning process but then my life was turned upside down and we moved to California. The packages they offer are life savers. For example, we chose the decor package in I cannot tell you how much that saves me in stress and headaches. They have an extensive collection in their decor, and they can make it happen. I supplemented with some of my own things, but they truly brought together my vision. The communication was top tier; always responded in a timely manner. I also had the day coordinator and I loved it. It helped me stay in the moment and the entire day. I also appreciated this because I'm out of state. When it came to the decor appointment and 30 day walk through they had all the details, all the questions down to a T. They worked with my mom and MOH and made sure everyone was on the same page Overall, the venue is gorgeous, all the staff was so friendly and it may seem small, but they all knew my husband and I's name and addressed us. I felt secure that they would do what needed to be done. I 100% recommend Briar Barns ❤️ ~ Kira F

Loved it! Made my niece's dream come true about the kind of wedding she wanted. Only thing I wish was different was getting the food and having to be exposed outside in the rain. Just wish it was covered better. The downstairs was decorated so beautifully. Had a very good time. ~ Cynthia R
