About

We are a rustic, prairie style wedding venue situated on 8 acres near the historic city of Fenton. Close to US 23 but secluded in the woods and surrounded by a large river flowing all around our property, you'll find our scenic gathering place. Our private estate includes a bridal suite, a covered bridge, a 3 bedroom, 2 bath guest house and a mid 1800's Livingston County barn we saved and had moved to our property. You'll have exclusive use of our estate for three days, allowing you plenty of time to decorate, hold your rehearsal dinner and celebrate with family and friends at a much slower pace than traditional banquet halls. The natural beauty of our property is the perfect backdrop for photographic opportunities!

Occupancy is 150.

Rental Price is: starting at $10,000. Includes tables, chairs, linens and napkins. Please visit our website or contact us for a complete list of amenities.

Best venue ever!

Valerie and her staff made sure our day was perfect! They accommodated every request and even stepped in when we forgot something! Everyone was VERY nice and fun to work with.
The on-site Inn/Guest House is adorable, very well decorated, clean and super cozy.

5 stars all the way

This location and the owners were both beautiful. Vale was so easy to work with and helped with anything I needed. The price included so much and were always there to help. We could not have asked for a better location for our wedding and we are still being told this was our guests favorite wedding attendance.

Literal Fairytale

Absolutely the most beautiful wedding venue I've ever been to. What a dream. With multiple different ceremony locations to choose from (shaded, beautiful covered bridge area, courtyard, dockside, and more) and a stunning pre-lit barn complete with a chandelier and bar, outdoor fire pits, lawn games and more, it was such a perfect day. Everyone one of my guests were blown away by the beauty and simplicity of it all. It is a DIY venue, so you are able to make it completely unique, with your own spin on it - you get the wedding YOU want. With that said, Valerie (the owner) is so helpful and willing to assist with all the fine details. You have access to the barn and inn for the whole weekend (Friday-Sunday) which is extremely helpful for set-up tear down stress and time. We had our rehearsal dinner in the courtyard on Friday night and it was gorgeous. Tables, linens, chairs, arbors, and bench seats for the ceremony, are all included in the price of the rental, including a two-night stay at the Inn. Such a cool idea. The Vale Royal Barn also has parking attendants and golf-cart assistance to those who can't walk around the property. Valerie has really thought of everything and takes pride in her venue, as she should! There is a list of preferred vendors you can use, which is extremely helpful, but you are not forced to go with them. You are able to hire whoever you like. I cannot say enough positive things about the Vale Royal Barn & Inn. If you have a vision of the most gorgeous outdoor wedding - THIS. IS. IT.
