Sugar Barn
About Sugar Barn
The Sugar Barn sits on a 45-acre estate, alongside its spring-fed flowering Lily pond, wild orange ceremony grove, rustic Groom’s cabin, private shooting range, reception courtyard, private runway with helipad, and an abundance of beautiful moss-covered oak trees! Inside the main barn you will find our grand hall where you can dance on a cloud under twinkly chandeliers, throw your bouquet from a Shakespearean style balcony, and stage your first touch behind the door to the light flooded Bridal Suite.
Along the north side of the venue, you will see a field of sugarcane, hence the name “Sugar Barn”
The Main Barn –
The Sugar Barn was skillfully designed by its owners, and built by the Amish in 2022. This unique building is not an old converted barn but a beautiful new Montana Douglas Fir structure, giving the warmth and character of a country venue, with all the commercial amenities you need to hold a successful and comfortable event. With its high-efficiency air conditioning, comprehensive sound system and backup power generator, this is no ordinary barn!
The Grand Hall –
As you enter The Grand Hall of the barn, you will notice the soaring 45-foot ceiling and a floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace with a beautiful accent mantle, milled from sunken cypress which is over 2,500 years old. A dazzling central 8-foot crystal chandelier, and surrounding smaller chandeliers, add beauty and elegance to the rustic feel of the venue. A grand timber staircase winds up to a spacious balcony overlooking the spotlit dancefloor. From here, the newly married couple will make their first grand entrance together! The Grand Hall can comfortably seat 250 guests.
The Lily Pond –
As guests first arrive at Sugar Barn, they will approach a beautiful spring-fed fountain pond with flowering water lilies, turtles and jumping fish. They will walk across the 120 ft bridge over to the picturesque ceremony area whilst taking in all the beauty of the lush landscaping!
The Ceremony Grove –
The Ceremony Grove is an enchanting, magical wedding setting. Surrounded by giant Oak trees with Spanish moss, and wild oranges peaking through the woodland. The double entrance gates are closed once all guests are seated, in anticipation of the Bride’s grand appearance and walk down the aisle. The large purpose built altar, with a choice of feature wooden backdrop, creates the perfect framing in which vows are exchanged. This beautiful outdoor space also features a modern restroom facility so your guests have no excuse to peek inside the main venue until the reception!
The Groom’s Cabin –
Located down the path from the Ceremony Grove is the Groom’s Cabin; an air-conditioned hideaway offering a secluded spot for groomsmen to gather, dress, have lunch, and relax before the wedding. Equipped with a refrigerator, foosball table, poker table, rocking chairs on the porch, and restrooms with a shower next door. There is also a private shooting range close by that can be hired for the wedding morning…
The Bridal Suite –
The stunning 1200 sq ft upstairs Bridal Suite is filled with natural light and provides a beautiful space for the Bride and Bridesmaids to prepare hair & makeup, take photos, and make wonderful memories. Key features include a private restroom with shower, full-length and light-up mirrors, an 8 ft makeup counter, and a gorgeous blue antique settee. There is also an elevator to the suite making it accessible for everyone. The sliding barn door to the Bridal Suite also acts as the perfect place to stage a ‘first touch’ moment…
The Reception Courtyard –
The Sugar Barn’s east side opens to a 3200 sq. ft. outdoor entertainment area. Adorned with twinkly market lights and framed by wooden planters containing fresh herbs used in our kitchen. A stone fireplace provides a rustic photo backdrop and the view of the lilypond and sugarcane fields completes this atmospheric setting. This majestic courtyard serves as an idyllic spot for a cocktail hour between the ceremony and wedding dinner. It is also the perfect place for a sparkler and/or helicopter exit!

The oversized Bridal Suite, flooded with natural light and beautiful furniture. The dazzling chandelier in The Grand Hall which overlooks the dancefloor and twinkles on the couple during their magical first dance moment!
What does a typical wedding day look like?
The typical wedding day starts with the Bride & Bridesmaids arriving and heading up to the Bridal Suite to start their hair and make-up. The Wedding Coordinator and Venue Manager finish off setting up any personal decor that has been dropped off. The Groom & Groomsmen all arrive and use our private Shooting Range before having showers and preparing for the day ahead. The photographer will take some ‘getting-ready’ photos before the guests arrive and are escorted to the Ceremony Grove. When the procession is ready to begin, the wedding party gathers in the Courtyard to assemble, and walk across the footbridge over the pond to the Ceremony Grove. The Groom then makes his big entrance to the ceremony by Airboat!!! He then escorts his mother down the aisle, followed by the rest of the bridal party. The gates to the Ceremony Grove are then closed in anticipation for the Bride’s arrival. The Bride is escorted across the footbridge by her father and pauses outside the gates. The signal is given, the music changes, the gates open, and the ceremony begins….! After the ceremony, the wedding party and family gather for photos, as the guests walk across the bridge to the courtyard for the cocktail hour. Next the guests are seated inside The Grand Hall as the Bride & Groom sneak around the back of the Barn and go up the secret staircase into the Bridal Suite. The DJ announces the Bridesmaids & Groomsmen who are watched by the Bride & Groom from the balcony above. The Bride & Groom are then announced and they make their grand entrance down the stairs and onto the spotlight dancefloor where they are surrounded by fluffy white clouds and they have their 1st dance as a married couple. The other ‘1st dances’ follow, speeches are given, and dinner is then served. Once dinner has finished, the cake is cut and the party begins! At the end of the night – the Bride & Groom make their exit through sparklers in the Courtyard, and they then get whisked away by Helicopter to their hotel or after-party!
What other types of events does the venue host?
The Sugar Barn has the capacity to host events of up to 300 guests, so we also do Award Ceremonies, Corporate Events, and Live Music nights. We also host all kinds of smaller events like Baby Showers and Birthday Parties.
How do I secure my wedding date?
After you have toured Sugar Barn and selected your date, we send you through a proposal and contract to sign. Then the deposit which is typically 10% of the total payment is due within 5 days.
Do we have to choose vendors from your preferred vendor list?
To ensure a flawless experience we highly recommend that you choose from our preferred vendors who are part of our team. These professionals have received stellar reviews from previous families and are familiar with the location and working with each other. We do now offer a ‘Partly Inclusive’ Package where you can bring your own Photographer, DJ and Florist if you already have a favorite professional who is not part of our team.
