A signature space at Southall Meadows, our 100-year-old tobacco barn is a rustic elegant backdrop with lots of opportunities to make it your own.  Spanning 4200 square feet, the event barn is a breathtaking option for both ceremonies and receptions, with its rustic elements and original details. It sits next to our modern event hall, giving you lots of flexibility to use the space in conjunction with the event hall and the countryside surrounding the barn. As Southall Meadows is a working family farm, it is appealing to know that the space has long served a real family, and has a history that those who marry here will continue to build on.

Romantic Indoor Ceremony Space

Most couples searching for farm wedding venues lean towards this rustic elegant style of event space for the reception – as is often the case with couples who book with us at Southall Meadows. Our historical tobacco barn is often set up for dinner as well as used as a cocktail space. Couples typically take full advantage of our outdoor spaces, yet the barn is another option for a romantic indoor space to say ‘I do’. It has plenty of space for seating, meanwhile, the grand doors can be used as a rustic backdrop – decorated with fresh florals. However, couples are also welcome to use it with the doors thrown open so that their guests can be graced by a breeze. This is also a great option for those who are hosting a short ceremony or would like a more minimal setup so that they can seamlessly shift into reception mode.

Dreamy Barn Wedding Reception

The interior of our barn wedding venue is a dream, oozing charm. The interior showcases the magnificent architecture of the time, including a vaulted ceiling and beautiful wood beams that tobacco once dried from. One of the primary benefits of a barn-style wedding venue is that it requires minimal decorations! The barn does feature elegant chandeliers and bistro lights, that cast a warm glow come night. Couples are welcome to host an elegant cocktail hour on the adjacent lawn, followed by a classic barn wedding reception. Or shift your guests to our modern event hall. For a stunning grand exit, throw open the doors and make a run to your getaway car beneath the light of sparklers or glow sticks!
