Nestled in eight picturesque acres, Vale Royal Barn & Inn offers a magical setting for outdoor weddings, blending rustic charm with natural splendor. Owner Valerie Johnson describes the venue as “a place where couples can truly make their day their own.” With exclusive weekend access to the property’s country house, couples and their guests are invited to immerse themselves in an atmosphere of serenity.
What makes Vale Royal stand out? Its variety of outdoor spaces, each offering a unique backdrop. “Ceremonies can be held on the river dock, in a wooded grove, the garden courtyard or the back field,” Valerie says. “Each space highlights the natural beauty of the property, creating a stunning canvas for any wedding theme.” Guests will also find charming features like a historic 1836 barn preserved from demolition, moved from the original Vale Royal Farm which was located near the corner of Bennett Lake Rd. and Old US 23. And, a covered bridge on the park-like property is perfect for unforgettable photos.
The venue’s attention to detail extends to every aspect of the celebration. Tables, chairs and outdoor benches are included in the rental, while guests can enjoy lawn games, a petting farm or even ride a mechanical bull. As the evening winds down, bonfire pits beckon loved ones to gather under the stars. “We strive to make every moment magical,” Valerie shares.
Even inclement weather doesn’t dim the charm. “We have beautiful indoor options to ensure every wedding runs smoothly,” Valerie adds. One memorable event featured a groom arriving at the river dock in his bass fishing boat, showcasing the venue’s unique appeal.
With its rustic elegance, exceptional amenities and thoughtful design, Vale Royal Barn & Inn offers an extraordinary experience for couples looking to celebrate their love amidst breathtaking natural beauty.
