Services Offered
The Whitewood Barn offers couples the following services for their wedding day:
I know there has been some negativity going around about this venue, however I feel like those posts were posted based on heated emotions and didn’t tell the whole story. In my and my husbands opinion Whitewood Barn is the perfect wedding venue for a rustic chic type of couple. Chris and her family we’re very accommodating and provided great recommendations such as our photographer @pinkskyphotography and Ryan at RAD Media. They made our day feel special and when it unexpectedly fell cold, they made our guests feel at home and cozy with our homemade cider. They went to great lengths to ensure everything ran on time and to make sure my husband didn’t see me until I walked down the isle. From helping me “fluff” my dress to my liking and making sure the groomsmen put the boutonnières on properly they were there every step of the way to make our day perfect.
When we signed the agreement and made the deposit, it was very clear that it was non refundable, which we were completely fine with! This is how businesses survive! Ensuring they have profit to keep up with the maintenance of this beautiful venue. If it was easy everyone would have a whitewood barn. Due to the unfortunate COVID-19 pandemic, I can see how some people may be frustrated about not getting their money back. However, knowing Chris I can guarantee she has been trying her best to make accommodations based on the available dates. Please don’t forget that behind these venues there are families that are trying to desperately keep their businesses intact! So please be kind and support this venue.

The best day!
I can't express enough how happy we are that we chose to have our wedding at The Whitewood Barn. The venue is PERFECT and Chris & Jeff are the most amazing people. From the minute we showed up (at 7am haha sorry Chris) they were so accommodating and attentive. Every single detail of our day was perfect. Not only did they welcome my SEVEN bridesmaids and I into the bridal suite, they welcomed us into their home! We couldn't be happier with how our day went! So much so, we are already trying to decide how soon is too soon to renew our vows haha. Thank you again Chris & Jeff for hosting our wedding. We had the best day!

Wonderful Wedding
I had the pleasure of being the first wedding held at the Whitewood barn. From the beginning everything with Chris the owner and her husband was great from their communication, to delivering on the vision for my wedding day and support and care on the day of was fantastic. We received so many compliments on our wedding and the venue itself.
We spent all day in the bridal suite with my ladies while we got ready, we drank mimosas, sat on their patio and had a wonderful lunch.
Our ceremony was outside in a beautiful clearing of trees, it was magical.
Our cocktails were outside of the barn, where our guests were able to get drinks, play games and mingle while we took pictures.
Then there was the barn for the reception, it's pure beauty and made decorating so easy because the venue it's self it so beautiful!
Chris had also partnered with the Wyndham Garden Inn and our guests received great service, rates, breakfast, and shuttles to and from the wedding.
We used Strong Bartending for bar service. They were great, fast professional, and so much fun. Chris Strong (bar tending) and Chris (Whitewood barn) worked so well together and prepared everything so well for the wedding day.
I highly recommend this venue to anyone want to host any event. Chris truly has pride in her venue and delivering phenomenal service!

They are attentive and efficient and ensure that all of the big and small details of your day are taken care of. With the professional, yet relaxed atmosphere they create most of my stress was eliminated. Truly beautiful people, inside and out.

This venue is THE venue!
We had our wedding at The Whitewood Barn this past March, and we couldn’t be more pleased with the experience. The owners are amazing to work with, and the venue is absolutely beautiful. We’ve had nothing but fantastic feedback from our guests. I would choose this venue over and over again!
