Sweet and classical

Our wedding was at "The Barn" we discovered this venue by attending wedding expo our wedding planner highly recommend!!!! Great way to see some venues.

What a perfect venue all in one for our wedding. We had the option of our ceremony on the beach (yes please), also included tables/chairs/arbor- set up and break down included. Plenty of room to move around, big dance floor, great for mingling. We also had a bounce house in the back and still enough space for kids to run around.

Ps. Love the fact they include a prefered vendor list, I found helpful when I need a photographer, and DJ. Super helpful

Beautiful May Wedding

We had a wedding on May 6th for my son Austin and his beautiful bride Tori and we could not have had a better experience. The venue was great and Nancy was absolutely wonderful to work with. So helpful and pleasant. She went far beyond the call of duty. I would advise any couple considering having a wedding at this venue to definitely go with these people. Thank you to all for making this such a memorable weekend.

It all started with a bike ride!

We are your hosts, Tara and Gerry. We married in 2016, with both of us bringing together children from previous marriages. As a newly married couple, we wanted to tackle something new together - something we could create - something that would hopefully make a difference in our community. So, we went for a bike ride!

One beautiful Sunday afternoon, as we rode our bikes down the beach road, we observed several tents scattered along the route. We soon learned there were six wedding in progress! The idea for Haven on the Banks and Keeper's Galley was born!
