We had an amazing experience with the Barn at Blackstone National! Kate was our coordinator, and she was super helpful throughout the entire planning process. She was quick to answer any questions we had and very detailed in her responses. She was also understanding and flexible with changes we needed to make leading up to the big day. On the day of the wedding, the barn team did an incredible job setting up all of our decor exactly the way I had envisioned it and working seamlessly with all of our vendors. I had a private reveal before everyone else arrived, and it was truly everything I could have asked for! We also received many compliments on the food, and the barn team was very prompt with every part of our timeline, including serving dinner. The venue was the perfect size for a 100 person wedding, with two bars and plenty of space to spread out both indoors and outdoors, so there was never a long line to get a drink. Kate also included multiple little touches that didn't go unnoticed, like making us a plate of hors d'oeuvres (we didn't get a chance to have any during cocktail hour), driving us around in a golf cart to take photos, and bringing a towel for my lap to protect my dress from my flowers during the ride. She even gave my 10-year old stepson some extra chocolate chip cookies, as that was a big part of the wedding that he was looking forward to. Lastly, my bridesmaids and I loved getting ready in the Putnam room, and our hair & makeup artist said she'd rate the space an 11/10. There was so much room for the bridal party to get ready, tons of natural light, and we could even go outside on the patio to take pictures. Everyone at the barn made the day really special and memorable. We had the best day ever and would highly recommend the barn to anyone looking for a wedding or...

When we were searching for a wedding venue, we wanted a place that felt intimate, timeless, and effortlessly romantic, and we found all that and more at The Barn at Blackstone National. From the moment we first toured the property to our last dance, our experience was absolutely perfect.
The location is incredibly convenient, yet once you're on the property, you feel a world away. The grounds are stunning, providing the ideal backdrop for a wedding where everything happens in one beautiful place. We started with our ceremony in the beautiful outdoor space, followed by an amazing cocktail hour, and then moved into the reception barn. The barn itself is simply gorgeous, and its timeless charm was the perfect canvas for our vision.
What truly elevated our day was the phenomenal staff. They are a well-oiled machine, and our coordinator, Jocelyn, and her team were simply incredible. They were there for anything and everything that came up, providing a sense of calm and assurance throughout the entire day. We never had to worry about a single detail because they had everything under control.
And let's talk about the food! The chef prepared a delicious meal that our guests are still raving about weeks later. We've received countless compliments on the quality and taste of everything. The chef's commitment to excellence was truly shown when she even made fresh cookies for our dessert display after feeling that one of the desserts from our bakery vendor had gone bad. That attention to detail is something we will never forget.
For couples who want an intimate, romantic, energetic, and timeless wedding, we would recommend The Barn at Blackstone National time and time again. They made our dream...
Read moreWe recently had our wedding in July at The Barn At Blackstone National, and I can't recommend it highly enough. This venue is an absolute gem—what we loved about it most was our ability to fall in love with it by itself, simply stunning even with no decor. The ambiance was both elegant and rustic, creating an unforgettable atmosphere that our guests are still raving about. One of the standout highlights was the food. It was nothing short of amazing, and our guests couldn’t stop complimenting the delicious food. It was presented beautifully, too! Also- the Barn has the BEST chocolate chip cookies you’ll ever taste and I recommend trying them regardless of what you do for your wedding dessert. What truly made our day so seamless and stress-free was our incredible wedding coordinator, Kate (Kate the great or the GOAT as well called her). From start to finish, Kate was phenomenal. Her organizational skills were impeccable, and she paid meticulous attention to every detail, ensuring that everything went off without a hitch. Kate's personable nature and deep knowledge of wedding planning made us feel completely at ease. She was patient and responsive, always ready to address any questions or concerns we had. On the wedding day, she conducted everything flawlessly, allowing us to enjoy every moment with confidence and comfort. We truly are so grateful to have had the opportunity to work with everyone at the Barn, but especially Kate. If you're considering The Barn At Blackstone National for your wedding, and especially if you have the chance to work with Kate, you’re in for a truly exceptional experience. We are incredibly grateful for the beautiful day they helped us create and would recommend them...
