When we first saw the venue we were sold. It is naturally beautiful and needed very little additional decorations. We got married this September and Holly and everyone there was very accommodating and flexible in regards to the pandemic. The venue was also very open and has a lot of outdoor space which made everyone feel more comfortable. They helped us through the whole process prior to the wedding and had a staff member onsite the whole day of the wedding who was awesome. Such a perfect place for a perfect day! Would highly recommend this venue for anyone getting married! -

Couldn’t have asked for a better venue. Not only was everything (and I mean everything) fully detailed and beautiful, but the ladies we worked with were fantastic as well. They helped with all details and acted as wedding planners. Couldn’t have done it without them. We received multiple compliments on the venue throughout the night. It is absolutely worth the drive. -

Vanessa Sent on 12/16/2017I can't say enough positive things about this venue. I booked in December 2015 for August 2017 - and it was TOTALLY worth the wait. -

User2196940 Sent on 06/25/2015My Fiancee wasn't really thrilled about going venue looking. We looked at 4 different places in person after I did the research and this was the only place he said "wow I love it!" This place is beautiful with tons of flowers and a unique barn setting. We are very excited to have our wedding there and are looking forward to the casual atmosphere we can make this (we are having a family reunion style wedding). Love the fact there is room to play yard games during cocktail hour and a fire pit for S'mores later in the evening. They have a rain plan and can accommodate up to 200 guests. This place is perfect for our dream wedding.
Update to review:
We were married here on May 21, 2016. This wedding venue could not have been more perfect for the relaxed, casual wedding we wanted to have. Holly and her team did an amazing job helping us set up and take down everything. They were super responsive to our every need. We have heard nothing but rave reviews from our guests about how cool, unique, and beautiful this venue is. Everything from the venue providing tables and chairs, providing wood for the fire so we didn't have to bring our own to the fish pond where guests could feed the fish was amazing. At the end of the night we were chatting with our DJ and he said he had never been to a wedding venue where the staff was so accommodating and knew their stuff. My only recommendation for this place is to book early. Now that the word is out about how fantastic it is everyone is wanting to book it. Our wedding day was perfect and the best day of our life so far. We couldn't have asked for anything better. We LOVE LOVE LOVE The Barn at Monterey Valley! -
User2221999 Sent on 07/12/2015I found this location while searching the internet for "barn weddings." It was exactly what I had envisioned in my mind. The barn is new and has chandeliers and beautiful details like old wooden mantles, a bar top made of pennies and even a penny dance floor. There are antique looking chalkboards to write the dinner menu as well as the bar menu. You don't need a lot of decorations to make it simple, elegant and beautiful for your reception!
The outdoors is equally beautiful. There are flowers everywhere! There is a GORGEOUS, open aired chapel with white pews and wooden chairs for the ceremony. This was important for me because I had always envisioned getting married inside a church. This was the best of both worlds! They even let you sign your names and wedding date on the wood of the chapel. My husband built a cross that can be added in front of the chapel as well. It's beautiful!
Holly is very flexible and even offered to hang all of our lanterns for us in the barn. She also allows you to provide some of your own food like drinks, alcohol if you desire, and a dessert table. You're able to choose your own vendors - ANY vendors - not ones pre-selected on a sheet. There is great flexibility and the wedding coordinator that assisted with the rehearsal was fabulous! I would recommend this venue without any hesitation. -

The venue was absolutely gorgeous and the staff was very helpful. They were not super quick to get back to me but they all have day jobs! Helped coordinate things I didn't even think of. I loved everything. Will recommend!! -
User2725444 Sent on 08/15/2016While The Barn at Monterey Valley was an absolutely stunning place to hold our ceremony and reception, the communication and customer service of the venue was very poor. The entire month prior to our wedding, we could not get a hold of anyone to answer our questions or to pay our final balance. We finally got a hold of someone a week before our wedding for them to not apologize and give us very vague answers to our questions. We were promised we could have 25 guest tables and the day of the wedding they told us they could only fit 24 tables, so we had to have one OUTSIDE of the reception area. We still have never gotten an apology for the awful communication and the staff avoided me the entire day of the wedding because they knew I was upset. The venue itself is pretty, but that does not outweigh the headache they will put you through!
