About

Willow Creek Barn Events is a farm wedding venue located in Alisa Craig, Ontario. This rustic-style setting provides ample room for hosting the soon-to-be-weds’ nearest and dearest. Featuring a provincial barn and enveloping grounds with ample features such as a creek and a pond, memorable and enjoyable occasions can be held here.

Facilities and Capacity

From the outside, Willow Creek Barn Events immediately captures the imagination and draws the eye. Set among green spaces and a great deal of countryside elegance, it exudes bucolic charm. With indoor and outdoor event areas, the happy couple and their guests are welcome to choose a space that best suits their preferences. For the all-important ceremony, the to-be-weds can say “I do” in front of a sheltered altar that is accompanied by tall trees. Here, chairs or benches can be arranged either side of the grassy aisle as the couple are joined in matrimony. When decorated with wedding signage and florals, the space comes alive. The couple can take a turn around the grounds as they enjoy photo opportunities, while the rest of the wedding party enjoys some adult beverages. For the cocktail hour, the bar provides somewhere suitable for everyone to come together and mingle as they soak up the ambience. As the day progresses, the barn offers a cozy and bright place for raising toasts and delivering speeches. When tables are laid out with Chiavari-style chairs, it is ideal for a sit-down meal. Overall, between 50 and 180 people can be accommodated at this property, making it suitable for intimate or grandiose celebrations of love and commitment.

Services Offered

Willow Creek Barn Events can host ceremonies and receptions, making it appropriate for couples who would like to have all the festivities in a single location. Couples are free to personalize the property to fit in with their desired theme, so they can bring their own decorative items or choose from the varied inventory on offer. A dedicated wedding planning service is also available for those who require assistance bringing their big day to life appropriately. What’s more, the venue offers the assistance of two bartenders who can serve up a variety of drinks for the newlyweds and their invitees to savour.

History

Boasting a barn originating in the early 20th century, this property has a rich history which makes it fitting for couples relishing a long future together. Before it was taken over by current owner Kim, it was not fulfilling its full potential as a rustic wedding retreat. Today, it plays host to romantic and memorable festivities, and it has been doing so since 2017.

Do. Not. Book.

My honest opinion of Kim (the owner) and her lack of unprofessionalism is just too much to explain. Instead I will share the timeline of events of my interactions with Kim.

August 2022: sent an email requesting package info and to book a tour.
Sept 2022: sent 2 followup emails and messaged the instagram page. Finally received a response after the instagram message. Booked a tour for Sept 24th. Upon arrival at the venue, we were stuck waiting 20 minutes until we finally found someone. Her husband noticed us walking around and asked what we were doing there. Explained that we booked a tour. He went inside and came back a few minutes later. Kim was in the shower and had forgotten we had an appointment. Eventually she came out and gave us a brief tour. At the end we chose our date, gave our contact info, paid a deposit, and was told that a contract would be sent to us.
Oct - Dec 2022: sent several followup emails and text messages asking for our contract. No response from Kim.
Christmas 2022: decided we weren't comfortable moving forward with our booking and texted Kim to cancel.
Jan 2023: received a reponse and our refunded deposit (which took about a week to be sent)
Feb 14, 2024: recieved an email from Kim "apologizing" because she had double booked and was canceling on us. No phone call. Just this email:
"Hi Melanie
I have been trying to get a hold of you. I did not get a contact number from you at the time of the tour. This is my fault :(
I have a terrible problem.
There has been a huge mistake. Your date has been double booked!!!!!!
In the 7 years I have operated I have never had this happen.
I am so sorry. I will return the deposit ASAP
I am so so sorry!!!!!

Kim Vlasman"

Thankfully we canceled and made other arrangements for our wedding. Please do not book with this venue. It's not worth it.

The best day of our lives!

We celebrated our wedding at Willow Creek Barn Events this past weekend and it was truly the best day of our lives. The atmosphere of Willow Creek gives off a vibe straight out of a fairy tale. Our guests enjoyed taking photos on the grounds and were blown away by the sight of the inside of the barn. The owner Kim is truly such a wonderful person. She makes sure that your day leading up to the wedding is ready to go, and runs smoothly from start to finish. When we went to set up the day before she had already done so much for us and when we came back to clean up the next day all the decor when down, packed and ready to go making it a very stress free morning and allowed us to just continue on a high from the magic of the day before. Kim also made wonderful recommendations for our vendors which resulted in the most magical and beautiful photos by Adam Goarley, a delicious meal that was raved about from all our guest by Caradoc Sands and the best DJ from Schwartzentruber music had so many of our guests dancing the night away and telling us after that it was most fun wedding they have ever been too!
Please note this is a venue where you will need to do all the booking of vendors and making decor on your own but Kim will be there to help you if you need. If you are looking for a venue where it would be all inclusive this would not be recommended. As a bride I enjoyed doing all the planning and coordinating and DIYing decor all on my own so it worked best for us. Willow Creek Barn Events was truly the best choice for our dream wedding. Don’t think twice! ✨

Amazing experience!

Willow Creek was the absolute perfect venue for our wedding & working with Kim + her team was a dream! It was truly a perfect day - everything ran so smoothly, thanks to Kim! She was always available leading up to our August wedding to discuss details and give advice/recommendations for vendors, scheduling and those little details you don't think of - which we greatly appreciated! The grounds are stunning, with tons of opportunities for beautiful photos. We loved having the ceremony by the creek and reception in the barn. And our minds were put at ease with built-in contingency to move the ceremony to their covered deck, if the weather didn't cooperate. Our guests also appreciated that the barn is accessible with ramps.
We're so grateful to Kim & Willow Creek!
