If you’re dreaming of a rustic wedding venue, a barn could make for the perfect setting!  The Barrie - Muskoka - Collingwood region boasts some of the most amazing barn wedding venues in Ontario.Naturally beautiful landscapes inherent with farms offer a relaxing atmosphere for outdoor cocktails, lawn games and your first dance under the stars. Once you move into the nearby barn for dinner, you can wow your guests with all the rustic charm of a venue with exposed beams and raw textures. 

Many of the barn venues I've listed below offer amazing accessories such as chandeliers, authentically rustic farm props and luxury dining chairs to set the ideal vibe.When it comes to creative photos with my couples, I often play it simple and let the property speak for itself. Imagine a slow stroll down a country road or dragging a cooler with your bridal party out into a big open field.  I've had some of my favourite shoots at barn venues around these parts.
