I only have one nice thing to say about this venue, and that it is beautiful truly inside and out. I just got married there a few weeks ago and could not stand the staff except for Pete the barn manager he was nothing but nice and helpful. The rest of the staff were very fake, snobby and pushy , and one thing that review above me is dead on is they only care about money! They are so ridiculous in over charging for every little thing, They charge 4,100 to rent the barn and literally that is all you get, the night of my wedding I got almost 1400 in extra charges for going over my time, and the price to rent all the chairs and tables, and they even charged me for using the little bar(you would think that is included) and to use the ice machine! They never once told us about that extra charge and the prices for the tables and chairs weren't what was stated in my contract. But Friedman is money hungry and he gets the final say in everything. All week we got to at least deal with Pete while setting up and he was so pleasant and helpful. However on the day of my wedding, Christine, who was only supposed to be there to help with any questions I had, turned into a wannabe wedding coordinator/bridezilla. She was constantly up my butt asking questions, seemed very fake, and constantly rushed everything! And me and my groom were not the only ones to notice her. The bridal party despised her, she made us feel like little kids and she was the scolding mother. Also at the end of the night while me and my Groom were waiting for our ride she took everything out of the private room(that had my dresses,wedding cards, and purse) and dumped them by the door and said we had to leave. No where in the contract did they state the bride and groom had to vacate the barn by a certain time. And we were also told last minute we would have to clean everything up that night if there was a Sunday wedding(they just had started doing them after we signed our contract). It was so funny the way Lois said "luckily for you" there is no Sunday wedding so you have til Monday to get it cleaned up. And when you clean up you have to literally leave the place the way you found it, spotless. So you pay 4100 for a barn to literally just rent the space. And the day after the wedding I talked to over ten guests who called to ask what was up with her. We found out that she was throwing away alot of people's drinks when they walked away from the tables, and all the guests said their drinks were full. I did mention something to Rob Friedman and he got so angry and violent with me, so I said I am done having any further contact with him. Rob Friedman thinks he is GOD! He owns the Jazz Cafe,Beaumont Inn,Friedman Electric and Friedman Farms, so he has a big chip on his shoulder. I am really regretting not just using another facility in the country just because I am so disgusted at their pricing for everything. I would have saved alot of money and frustration! read more
