    Grove and the Barn at Briar Barn Inn far exceeded our expectations. I’ll admit, I was nervous that the space would be too small to accommodate our 90 guests but there was more than enough room for everyone. Our day of coordinator, Julia, was so on top of everything and put as at ease. We completely trusted her and she made sure everything went off without a hitch. The food and drinks at Grove were also wonderful we chose the short rib, salmon, and agnolotti and our guests were raving about them. We highly recommend!

    I cannot put into words how much we loved our wedding with Grove at Briar Barn Inn. We were so impressed with EVERYTHING the venue and inn had to offer throughout our entire planning and wedding day experience. We got married on 12.31.23 - New Year's Eve! Both Grove and Briar Barn Inn were beautifully decorated for the holidays - our guests described it as magical and like a Hallmark Movie! I highly recommend booking out the entire inn (if your guest count allows for this), because it was so convenient to have every room filled with our favorite people. Our guests loved and appreciated the convenience of staying onsite. The rooms were so nice, too. Overall, the venue fulfilled my dream of a charming, elegant, cozy, barn wedding. Our guests couldn't stop raving about the food and drinks after our wedding. The bartenders brought our specialty cocktails to life and the dinner selections were unreal. 11/10! Alyssa Tamlyn-Hayden (our assigned wedding coordinator) was so great! She was so incredibly helpful, answering all of our questions promptly and being the most helpful human ever on the actual wedding day. She was quick with guidance and recommendations. We felt so well taken care of on our special day. Thank you, Alyssa!! I could go on and on about Grove at Briar Barn Inn, but just know, I wouldn't have wished my wedding were anywhere else! Thank you everyone involved! - Jackie & Matt

  • Perfect wedding!
