It is so well taken care of by the owners and it shows! Mirela and George went above and beyond to make our day special and exactly how we wanted it. They are both so genuinely kind, and you can tell they are passionate about what they do. George was our officiant and did a perfect job. He met with us beforehand and went over the ceremony with us a few times leading up to the wedding to make sure it was exactly what we wanted. Our day was truly perfect and ran so smoothly, thanks to them and their amazing assistant Grace. I cannot recommend the Historic Blum Barn enough!!

There is a reception area downstairs but it wasn't available. The church had a back entrance that we could push a wheelchair through. I wasn't sure if the reception area had a ramp or way to accommodate a wheelchair. The parking lot is small but there was neighborhood parking.

My husband and I were married here a week ago today, and it was truly a dream come true…read more My husband and I had decided on a small romantic wedding with only immediate family present and our two closest friends present. Christine was absolutely wonderful. She was patient and answered all of my questions, she made the whole process so much easier for us. The pictures do not do her home justice, and I loved that we were able to customize every detail about our ceremony. With the lighting and beautiful stained glass windows we got a lot of beautiful photos as well. It still almost seems unreal. If you are looking for an intimate wedding, and just want to keep it simple and classy, this is absolutely the place to go!

Came for a family wedding in September…read more Tucked away within a neighborhood. Beautiful outside especially the grounds with flowers and landscaping. Inside is very bright but stark. What once was an auditorium held the reception and it was pretty with high ceilings but again lacked much character. A ton of white everywhere. So brides/grooms need to bring in a lot of lighting and decorations to make the place theirs. Food was amazing. Buffet style. Food was hot and plentiful. Bar tenders and staff were friendly and attentive. Made great drinks! Bathrooms were updated and clean. Small cramped parking lot that was tricky to navigate. Wasn't that clear where to enter or how to get to the ceremony in the patio area. Overall, enjoyed ourselves.

I can't say enough positive things about my experience here with Chris and Mary. The facility…read moreitself was stunningly beautiful, but what really makes this place amazing was Mary and her unwavering support. I could visibly see my bride and mothers shoulders relax after meeting Mary for the first time, a few weeks before the wedding. Mary had all sorts of supplies we could use (all for free) and really knew her stuff. During our rehearsal, Mary instructed everyone to come to her on the day of the wedding. Not me (the groom), not my mother, not the bride, but her. She played the QB and handled everything. Guys, and girls, in a world where couples getting married are nickled and dimed for every little thing, this place is the opposite. Never once did Mary say something like "Sure, we can do that for an extra fee". Everything was "Oh sure, here's what I have, what do you think?" You can tell both Chris and Mary really enjoy their work. I have nothing but glowing comments to say about them and their facility. I would recommend them a hundred times over if I could. Go with them and their facility, you won't regret it.

Thank you so much to Oakwood Community Chapel for making our Wedding Day everything we had hoped…read morefor. We had to postpone our Wedding due to the pandemic which caused us to have to find a new venue. The minute I called Anne Marie she was ready to help. She helped us plan our new Wedding with only 2 months left till our day. She took our romantic, elegant vision we have had the past 2 years and made it come to life at her Chapel. What made our day even more special was that I got to say "I do" to my Groom in the same church my parents said "I do" 34 years ago and also the church I grew up going to with my parents and grandparents. We have been through so much with planning a wedding during a pandemic but the second we decided to change our Venue to Oakwood Chapel our anxiety and stress simply was gone because of the way we were treated by Anne Marie. Everything about our Wedding day was magical and would not have happened without Anne Marie and her team. We are forever grateful
