IMAGINE YOUR WEDDING AT
OLD CARTER BARN
Getting Ready – your day starts here!
You start your wedding day in our warm, luxurious bridal suite. With 4 hair and make-up stations, an adjoining sitting room and private bathroom, it is your sanctuary—a place to breathe, laugh, and savor the anticipation of your day.
Don’t forget about the Groom!
The Groom’s room, in a former stable, features rustic and refined elements, as well as direct access to a private yard- perfect for hanging out with the guys! Masculine elegance meets modern comfort. This is where the groom and his closest friends can relax, share stories, and prepare for the moments ahead. It’s more than just a room—it’s his last hang with the guys before taking the leap!
The Ceremony begins…
Imagine saying your vows on the shores of a beautiful lake, with sunlight filtering through, painting the perfect backdrop for your love story. The Lakeside Ceremony space is breathtakingly beautiful. This is where forever begins.
The reception begins- Cocktail hour by the lake
After your vows, treat your guests to a cocktail on the adjoining stone patio- appetizers, cocktails, music, surrounded by the peaceful setting of Lake Carey!
Guests can be transported up to the barn in our Model T shuttle.
A Magical Dinner in our 150 year old barn
Our historic 150 year old barn, restored in 2022, features over 4,000sq feet for your reception. Step into our dining barn, transformed to suite your personal style. Dance the night away in the adjoining barn with a dance floor and bar, mezzanine. A space that combines rustic charm with luxury and elegance, designed for dining, dancing, and celebration.
Dance the night away
An epic party after dinner in the adjoining reception barn, a packed dance floor with great lighting, a fire going outside in the fire pit, lawn games, and sparkler exit (we make all that happen!)
