This guide walks you through what a Black Barn wedding weekend looks like and why so many couples are choosing this experience over a one-day celebration.
Why a Wedding Weekend?
Your wedding is more than a single moment—it’s a gathering of your closest people, a milestone in your story, and a time you’ll never want to rush. A wedding weekend creates room for deeper connection, quieter moments, and a celebration that unfolds naturally.
A weekend experience gives couples:
More time with family + friends
A relaxed wedding morning
Space for a rehearsal dinner or welcome party
Time to decorate and personalize
A calmer, more enjoyable celebration
A chance for everyone to settle in and truly be present
Friday: A Warm + Welcoming Start
Most couples begin their weekend by:
Holding their rehearsal onsite
Hosting a welcome dinner or casual gathering
Decorating or prepping the barn
Enjoying a peaceful night at the farmhouse (if included)
It’s the perfect way to ease into the weekend and set the tone for the celebration ahead.
Saturday: Your Wedding Day
On the morning of your wedding, there’s no rushing between locations or squeezing everything into a tight timeline. With the property all to yourself, the day unfolds with ease.
A typical Saturday flow includes:
Slow, relaxed morning in the farmhouse
Hair + makeup onsite
First look or private vows
Ceremony at your chosen location
Cocktail hour on the lawn or around the barn
Reception inside the barn
Sunset photos across the property
Dancing under the stars at the outdoor dance floor
The rustic barn and open landscape work together to create a celebration that feels warm, intimate, and beautifully you.
Sunday: A Sweet Send-Off
For couples using the farmhouse, Sundays often include:
A simple brunch
Gift opening
Family time
A relaxed morning before checkout
It’s the perfect way to close out your celebration without rushing out the door.
The Farmhouse: Your Weekend Home Base
The on-property farmhouse adds comfort and convenience to your weekend. Located just steps from the barn, it’s ideal for:
Getting ready
