About

On WeddingWire since 2015

Century Barn is a wedding venue nestled among the rolling hills of Cavan, Ontario. The seven-generation estate run by the Stewart Family offers the perfect place to host weddings, corporate events, and community functions. With permanent fixtures and amenities, it is much more than a barn. Spectacular sunsets, hayfields, spring blossoms, summer breezes or fall foliage await to impress discerning visitors.

Facilities and capacity

Century Barn can hold a maximum of 140 guests and is available throughout the week for weddings and other special events. The venue has several spaces to host the nuptial celebrations. Outside, couples are welcome to the ceremony garden next to the barn for the ritual service. Afterward, the pair-of-honour and guests can enjoy a cocktail hour and hors d’oeuvres in the outdoor courtyard. Inside, a furnished loft and lounge area is an idyllic setting to enjoy a toast. The Grand Barn also serves as a reception area for a night of dinner and dancing or an alternative ceremony space should the weather turn. The venue is complete with a bar, including a fridge, a freezer, and taps. A wedding suite is open to the nearlyweds inside the barn, fitted with floor-to-ceiling mirrors, a flushable washroom, and electrical outlets. To facilitate outside caterers on the day, the venue has a preparation pad with lighting and water access for an exceptional gourmet experience.

Services offered

Century Barn only hosts one event per day, offering exclusive access for the celebrations. On the day, the venue attendants are available to orient vendors, greet guests and direct parking for seamless event execution. The DIY bar service gives couples the freedom to work within their budget and customize liquor selections for their guests. A booking with Century Barn also includes the use of their tables, banquet chairs and various décor pieces, so there is one less thing to worry about. If the barn's collection does not suit your fancy, several excellent local vendors will have what you are looking for at competitive prices. The service offerings available include but are not limited to:

  • Indoor and outdoor lighting
  • Assortment of tables
  • Padded banquet chairs
  • Vintage wine-barrels
  • Lawn games
  • Exclusive use of the property for wedding photos

The Dream Wedding!

My husband and I just got married at Century Barn and it was the most blissful and PERFECt experience. They made our wedding day AND planning feel like a dream!
You can feel how much love and attention has been put into every aspect at Century Barn. When the vendors and the CB team work so in sync, you know they have that special touch that makes everyone feel welcome. The owner Brooke, our coordinator Seanna, the CB team and all the vendors made our wedding a magical dream, they went above and beyond when the rain was cutting it close for the ceremony but with a window of clear skies, they made a glorious and dry ceremony happen! (Even blow-drying the tree leaves to avoid any delayed droplets!)
We loved every step of the planning process, and are honestly sad that its over! As the bride, I fully took in the day and enjoyed every moment without any stress because of the trust I had in them, and they worked so well to make it seamless. We adore the connections we made with everyone and know that they will give 110% for the next couple and so on!
Without a doubt, this is your sign to get married at Century Barn! And I highly recommend working with the vendors they work with; Katie Shaw from Born To Be Photography, Chef Aaron from ACCatering, DJ Lex and DJ Lynz, and Mike Gibbs the Florist.
My husband and I had our dream wedding here, and we trust that many couples already have, and many more will!

A Flawless Day

We are absolutely thrilled we chose to have our wedding at Century Barn in October of 2024. It is a stunning venue and no detail is overlooked. From start to finish their team was nothing less than exceptional. They made the entire process easy and stress free, and you can tell they really care about their clients. Their professionalism is also reflected in the vendors they choose to work with, all of which were just amazing. Overall, choosing Century Barn for one of the biggest days of our lives is one of the best decisions we've ever made.

September Wedding at Century Barns

We couldn’t put into words how amazing the entire team at Century Barns was for our wedding. They have truly mastered how to make planning a wedding as stress-free as possible. Brooke and Joon are some of the most friendly and kind humans and we fell in love with both the venue and the staff instantly. We had the pleasure of working with Kim and Christine, who understood our vision (even better than we did) and executed it flawlessly. If you’re even considering having your wedding at Century Barns, just do it!! You’ll have zero regrets!

Dream Come True

Getting married at Century Barn was an absolute dream come true and we cannot say enough good things!! From our very first inquiry both the staff, and the space itself were incredible.

The venue itself is truly stunning. The gardens around the barn are impeccably kept, the ceremony space offers fabulous views, there are lawn games and a firepit space for guest entertainment. And the inside of the barn is dazzling with all the twinkling lights, and well appointed features. They have done everything up so nicely, including the bridal suite. We received so many compliments from our guests and photographers about how beautiful the venue itself is.

The staff - 12/10 recommend working with this dream team! Brooke has such a warm, bubbly personality she honestly sold the venue as much as the space itself did for us. And Seanna, our co-ordinator, was so patient, so thorough, so on it!! Every question or concern was addressed quickly and efficiently. The day itself ran super smoothly, despite some bad weather pivots. The team worked incredibly hard to ensure our experience was the absolute best it could be and that we were never left wanting or stressed. Even our guests commented on how kind and helpful all the staff were. They truly bend over backwards to ensure client satisfaction.

There is an almost-all inclusive package you can opt for - but I will mention that we did encounter a few upgrades along the way that added some originally unanticipated costs (i.e. gold cutlery, hanging extra drapes, heaters for inside the barn). All entirely optional however, and were worth the extra expenses in our eyes.

I could go on raving about Century Barn for ages - but I will end it with this. This place is magic. The people who work there are dream-makers and you cannot go wrong by choosing to say "I Do" here. THANK YOU CENTURY BARN!!!

Stunning venue with an incredible team!

We couldn't say enough wonderful things about Century Barn as a venue and the entire team we worked with (Brooke, Joon, Seanna, Kim and Christine). Brooke is the most welcoming and lovely person we could've worked with and made sure that absolutely everything that we could've wanted happened. She listened to our ideas and found a way to make it happen. We had a little hiccup with catering (our fault) and Brooke was able to come up with a solution that saved us so much stress trying to figure out. Kim was an absolute delight to work with as well. She listened to everything we had to say and had our backs the entire time, as an added bonus she did a fantastic job on all of our signage! I couldn't say enough nice things about the entire team at Century Barn. They all worked so hard to make our wedding day so special and we will be forever grateful. If you you're on the fence on whether this is the venue for you let me just say that the barn is stunning, no matter where you are in the space your photos will turn out amazing! Without a doubt I would recommend anyone have there wedding here, the venue and team are incredible to work with. To the team at Century Barn, thank you times a million!!

Perfection!!!

We couldn’t have asked for a more perfect day!! Beyond our expectations! The venue was amazing all the coordination leading up to our day was seamless. The amount of options for the vendors in our package exceeds our expectations. We couldn’t have asked for a more seamless easy process. Even when things shifted on the day of the wedding they were ahead of everything and made our day effortless and perfect. We had so many compliments on how amazing our wedding was and we couldn’t have done it without century barn and their team. Special thank you to brooke and seanna!!

A dream come true!

I literally don’t even know where to begin with writing this review about Century Barn and the entire team involved.
From our initial visit touring the venue and meeting Brooke, we knew immediately that this was the venue we were going to choose. Her warmth was felt right away and we could not stop talking about her the entire way home. She is truly special.
Brooke, Joon, Kim and the rest of their team treated us like family and walked with us the entire time while planning our wedding. From touching base with us and keeping us on track, to scheduling meetings, being just a call, text or email away, they are a dream team. The amount of support and love we received from Century Barn was everything we could have ever asked for.
When Brooke introduced us to Kim, it was as if we had known her for years. She is kind, patient, and supportive. She is the best coordinator, taking so, so much off our plates and doing it beyond our expectations. We love Kim!
We are so, so thankful for Century Barn and everyone involved. Our wedding day was picture perfect and came together like a dream.
Century Barn will forever hold a special place in our hearts, as will Brooke, Joon, Kim, and everyone else who is lucky enough to be a part of their team.
Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for being who you are and for making our wedding feel like pure magic.

100% Recommend!! AMAZING Place/Staff

Where to even start!! We knew the second we walked in there, this was the place.

The Grounds of this property are the most beautiful place with the rolling hills in the back ground, the well taken care of flowers,
the stunning Barn that makes everything worth it.

Starting with Brooke making us feel like family right from day one, she truly will try and move mountains to give you what you need. From finding dog sitters, all the way to the trusted vendors.

Moving on from Brooke, we had Kim as our wedding planner. Who we met about 11 Months before our wedding. She Was always on the ball sending out emails confirming the details we need to complete and time lines to get them done in. There was no stress going with them!! Planing seemed like a dream. At one point we thought we were forgetting something with how easy the process was.

On the week leading up to our day, They Made sure we had the support and the comfort that everything was just the way we dreamed it.

On the day we showed up and they were not only able to nail the wedding of our dreams but and absolutely blow it out this world.
Taking the curve balls we threw at them too.

The Team is 100% An amazing team and work so well together. The only thing were sad about after the wedding was the fact that we don't get to work with this amazing group of people again.

Thank you so much Brooke, Kim, Seanna, Joon & Christine.

Best Wedding Venue

We had our wedding here in June of 2024 and can't say enough good things about Century Barn. Kim, Brooke, and the entire team at CB were a joy to work with and made the planning process smooth and enjoyable. The barn and the property itself is beautiful, and is the perfect setting if you're looking for a rustic, simple, yet elegant wedding venue.
