AN AUTHENTIC BARN WEDDING VENUE IN SOUTHEASTERN WISCONSIN After four generations in the same family, The Barn at Back Acres Farm is finding new purpose and meaning as a wedding and event venue. Our venue offers an indoor reception space in the barn with seating for up to 200, your choice of outdoor ceremony sites, spacious grounds with serene views for guests to enjoy, and many amenities. We began this venture motivated by a desire to have personalized, meaningful weddings in our own family—and our farm was the only place with the space and beautiful setting where we could make that happen. As daughter and then son were married here, we realized something: We wanted others to have this opportunity, too. We know firsthand what it takes to create the kind of wedding you want to have, and that it's worth the time, money, and effort you put into it when you choose the right place. And that's not only true for our own family—every wedding we've had the honor of hosting since opening up our farm to the public in 2018 has been unique and meaningful for both couples and their guests. We have a saying in our family, "Old barns tell the best stories." We can’t wait to see yours begin here at The Barn.
