I just wanted to write to let you know how much Jaocb and I appreciated all you did to make our day perfect on Friday. The efficiency and kindness of the staff was amazing! I received many compliments about how beautiful the Hay Loft is and we couldn't agree more.

We had the most wonderful experience with The Hay Loft I knew right during our initial tour that we were in great and capable hands. But the day of, where do I even start?! Every single member of the staff was so kind and helpful! They made sure everything went off without a hitch! It was so amazing for myself AND my family AND my wedding party to simply enjoy the day! The attention to detail was second to none, well maybe second to only the amazing communication we had with them throughout our entire booking and planning experience! I cannot recommend this venue more and I will scream it from any rooftop or mountain top I can forever! Thank you so much everyone! ❤️

“We just wanted to say a big thank you to all of you for making the wedding last Friday so memorable and perfect!  Your attention to detail and professionalism was very appreciated. Tim’s ability to wrangle a crowd through the serving lines so quickly was amazing, and definitely helped get us back on track timewise. The bartenders did a great job keeping up with the “demand”. You made it so easy to just enjoy our day, knowing you had things handled so well.  You guys are the best!”

Our guests couldn't stop gushing about how beautiful the venue was and how much fun they had. The team at The Hay Loft always got back to us within 24 hours whenever we reached out via email, which made the whole planning process a breeze. I highly encourage all future brides and grooms to consider The Hay Loft for a barn venue – you won't be disappointed!

“Got married here June 2021 and had the most perfect day! The space was perfect for what we wanted and our guests really utilized all of the space. We had pretty perfect weather and everything went very smoothly! We had about 250-270 guests and everyone fit on the top level of the barn very comfortably. The staff was incredible and helped out so much! All of our guests raved about how great of a time they had!”

- Rebecca Alvarez

My husband and I just got married at The Hay Loft a few weeks ago and they are absolutely amazing to work with! Not only is it a beautiful venue but they have amazing staff, picture perfect grounds, can hold a large capacity of people, are very accommodating, and have been very responsive and easy to work with throughout the entire process! I highly recommend for anyone looking for a barn venue wedding!

“We had the most amazing Indian wedding at the Hay Loft Barn. It is a very beautiful venue, and really does not need a lot of decorations. Nevertheless, we converted it into an Indian palace. Tim is truly a wonderful person, and is so easy to work with. His staff is very professional and performed their duties quietly and efficiently. We thank them all for giving us a lifetime of wonderful memories.”
