    Ballroom. I'm not a fan of barns as wedding venues. We never considered one.

    Aww no I'm sorry to hear that! It can be wild how expensive ballrooms can be!

    Totally agree! Both have their own styles to them, it just depends on which feel you are going for!

    Ballroom. I am a huge Audrey Hepburn fan. I want that elegant and timeless feel

    I’m kind of in between those, style-wise? Haha! Everyone will be in a ballroom-esque room for the reception for my wedding! It’s a country club so very pretty open windows

    Ours has a little bit of both?? We picked a rustic looking ballroom venue. The barns are so expensive but we love the laid back feel!

    Ballroom. Period. The barn is for animals. The fact that its even a trend now makes me crazy.

    Ballroom all day every day! Our reception is in a rustic ballroom with chandeliers and arched windows. Barns are pretty far from our style, we never considered a barn at all.

    Surprisingly stuck between the two... I could see us in either one... Which has made it hard for picking the perfect venue.

    I'd prefer a barn, but sadly there are none in my area. There are ones it other counties and far off cities, but none in a close enough drive my us and our guest. Ballrooms are nice, the place I want is a hall, and it's really nice. Just waiting for the coordinator and I to get it nailed down
