The
CHARM
More than a venue.
It’s an experience.
The magic is in the details…
We aren't just a venue; we are your partners in celebration. You’ll experience the feeling of the history in our hand-hewn beams, the ease of a perfectly prepared space, and the comfort of knowing every detail is coordinated on your behalf. From the first look on the veranda to the final dance in the barn, we provide the foundation so you can experience every single moment fully.

Timeless - Picturesque - Inviting
Our 19th century restored barn and event venue is close enough to be convenient (just 20 minutes northeast of Auburn, IN) but far enough off the beaten path to feel secluded and private. Our picturesque venue offers a unique and charming atmosphere for your special day. The natural wood beams, chandeliers, and twinkling lights create a warm and inviting ambiance that will make your event truly unforgettable.
Our venue is designed to accommodate both indoor and outdoor events. On your wedding day you could say “I do” surrounded by lush greenery in our meadow, or in the cozy comfort of our beautifully decorated barn. We have a variety of floor plans to accommodate your guest list. Our experienced team will work with you to bring your vision to life, and will take care of every detail so you can relax and enjoy time with loved ones and friends.
While primarily a wedding destination, we can also host corporate parties, class reunions, fundraisers, family holiday gatherings, or just about any other event you can dream up. If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to reach out. We’d be happy to help make your experience as special and worry-free as possible.
