The Black Barn

This family run venue exceeded my expectations! Aaron and Madeleine were incredible to work with and have a real passion for what they do. The venue was beautiful, the staff was fantastic, and I couldn't say enough good things about making the decision to get married here. This was the least stressful wedding I have ever been to... and it was my own! 10/10 for choosing Aaron and his decorative eye. I wouldn't have changed a thing!

Beautiful Wedding Venue!

From first viewing to our wedding Black Barn and their staff was amazing! They put so much time and effort into making the venue beautiful and made us feel so special during the planning process and the day of. The bridal suite and grooms garage are both perfect spaces and make for a stress free morning as you don’t have to worry about getting to the venue. The staff made set up easy and Madeleine ensured everything ran smoothly during the wedding! Couldn’t have asked for a better location for our wedding!

Customer service at its finest.

There are no other words to describe this venue and its owners other than....WOW, WOW, and more WOW.
Beauty at its finest!!!!!
Myself and my husband watched this venue come to life, right from the blueprint vision to the final reveal of "The Black Barn".
We saw Mrs. Madeline's vision on paper and knew this spunky farm girl was onto something specular, and oh boy!!!!! Did she ever produce.
The Black Barn and its team are genuine home-grown people.
From Aaron's attention to detail, his zest for beauty and his gentle touch, this man has your day covered.
The Black Barn team simply love what they do, and it shows through right from the first consult to the final minutes of your big day.
They made my fairytale wedding come to life without a single flaw.
My guests were just as in love with this venue as we were.
The black Barn is one of the most enchanting venues in Alberta.
You will not be disappointed in the venue or its operators.
They are all gems.

Above and beyond

ABOVE & BEYOND is how I would describe our experience with the Black Barn venue. We had our wedding in September 2022 and from the moment we first contacted them up until the wedding day, they have gone above and beyond in all aspects to make our day special. After conducting research on all of the venues in the Edmonton area, the Black Barn stood out to us because they offered more than just a venue, they offered an experience. From the four hours of complimentary wedding planning, day of coordination, prompt communication, use of their decor and the immense amount of extra services included in the price we had to go with Black Barn. Aaron, the day of coordinator did most of the decorating with such an eye for perfection and class, the bartenders that we hired from them were creative and made fun cocktails and shots for all of our guests, the bridal suite was gorgeous and filled with natural light, and they even had coffee made for us upon our arrival in the morning. We wanted a champagne tower right after our ceremony, and Aaron had everything ready for us. Throughout the evening they made sure the space was tidy and helped our DJ transition to the patio for our first dance. For those guests who didn’t want to dance inside the barn, they brought out portable fire towers so that they could relax on the patio all night. At the end of the night, they cleaned up everything, stacked our extra alcohol and even boxed up leftover decor that could be reused. With the Black Barn, they will make your vision a reality. My husband and I live in British Columbia, and had to plan our wedding from one province over. It was an absolute breeze because of working with the Black Barn. We can not recommend them enough. The venue is full of beautiful landscaping, a classy patio, elegant decor and wonderful staff.

Beyond what we could imagine for ourselves!

My husband and I were so honoured to be the first wedding at the black barn. To say that the owners and staff are kind and caring is an understatement. They were flexible with our timeline and made sure the space looked stunning. This is in addition to a beautiful space that would have been absolutely perfect without any decor at all. If you want a rustic touch while still looking elegant and somewhat modern, this venue is a great choice!

Amazing venue and experience

I am thrilled that Black Barn will be the setting for our upcoming wedding in July 2021. It will be so exciting to be among the first couples to take our vows here—especially since I grew up on a farm.  Also, the wedding planner has already given us so much help and guidance and excellent suggestions. It’s been so reassuring and has taken away a lot of the stress related to wedding planning!

We have already spent time walking around the site and imagining our wedding photos with a background of bright yellow canola.

Thank you so much, Black Barn.  See you in July!

Planning made easy!

My fiancé and I have just signed with Black Barn Events - let the wedding games begin! What a relief to get our first choice of dates, not to mention quick and friendly answers to our (million!) questions. It was important to the two of us to choose a family-based business and we are so glad we did, because the Black Barn folks seem almost as excited about our nuptials as we are!

We were looking for a rustic chic venue that would accommodate our outdoorsy and retro wedding ideas and Black Barn was enthusiastic and even gave us a few more ideas.

I'll be sure to post another review after our wedding next summer; meanwhile, I highly recommend giving Black Barn a call if you're planning your wedding and want to make it a seamless, easy process!

Black Barn wedding venue

I knew there was something special about the black barn as soon as we got there for the first time. The beautifully landscaped yard, the seasonal florals, the warm yellow lighting and elegant chandeliers, the rustic look of an old barn, plus the uniqueness of it not being bright red in color, and the floor to ceiling windows that you can watch the sunset from all contribute to this wedding venue being the most romantic venue you'll ever find.
Ontop of the charm this black barn has, you'll learn that the owners are a wonderful family who will put the cherry on top of your "wedding sundae," so to speak. Well organized, and mixed with many talents, the owners will make you feel like youve known each other for years and host the best party of your life.
