If you’ve ever attended a wedding at Oakhaven then you know of at least one ceremony site, but did you know that we offer multiple places for you to have your wedding ceremony? Our Grand Dutch Barn, Signature Oak Tree and Manor Gardens are where most ceremonies take place and each one offers a different atmosphere for your wedding day. Let’s look at each one and you decide which best serves you and your guests for your special event!
Signature Oak Tree
As our most popular wedding ceremony site, our Signature Oak Tree is more than 100 years old and provides the perfect amount of shade, if you choose the right time of the day, for those hot summer weddings. This ceremony site is perfect for those couples who are looking for an outdoor option with stunning views and possibly a more traditional feel, with old church pews that can seat up to 150 guests. With the wedding party entering the ceremony through our wooden double door hut (draped in blooming roses, depending on the season) you can be assured everyone will be in awe of the scenery this space has to offer and of course the gorgeous couple will be the icing on the cake!
Manor Gardens
Although Oakhaven is considered a farm venue, we love having our Garden Gazebo as the perfect ceremony site for those couples who are looking for something a little more intimate and romantic. You can find colorful blooms and different plants throughout the year, making this setting perfect for any time of the year. Your wedding party will follow the stone pavers, past our stunning fountains and right down the aisle to their place beside the bride and groom. Not looking for a “rustic” atmosphere for your ceremony? The Gazebo is perfect for you!
Grand Dutch Barn
While our barn is used as our main backup plan in case of weather, this option isn’t to be slept on as your 1st choice for a ceremony location! With ceilings 18 feet high, panoramic windows with views of the pastures and a stunning floor to ceiling stone fireplace as your ceremony backdrop, you will absolutely leave guests stunned at how beautiful your ceremony truly is inside this warm and welcoming Dutch barn.
Introducing The Crown
And last, but certainly not least, we are so excited to introduce to you our newest ceremony location: The Crown
Have you ever thought about getting married in the middle of a field with family and friends surrounding you? This location is exactly that! We think this ceremony site fits perfectly for those later fall and early spring brides as there isn’t a shade source for guests or wedding party, but the stunning views make up for it. We can’t wait to see more couples utilize this space for their wedding day and just know that it’s going to be a perfect addition to the farm!
