I want to share my experience that I had at this wedding chapel June 13 2026. I spoke to Jennifer I…read morewanted to speak to her about her behavior during and after the ceremony. She was rude and condescending during the whole ceremony. I understand it's 45 minute ceremony we were advised 50 per person if we had additional guests after the initial package. Which we all were aware and most people don't carry cash so we had credit cards and some people had cash there was 13 extra people.She talked about not having enough staff we didn't complain ...I said you seem upset she said I think it tacky to have to take several credit card payments..It's NOT her job to have to take multiple payments for our wedding!!! Who says that to her guests and paying customers with a nasty attitude!!!! This is your business and you're upset you're collecting 500 plus dollars. There were no other customers there and we were her last customers...Jennifer the owner was TERRIBLE she used the word tacky so many times. I felt if we were another race it would have been different I also said we're NOT tacky and that she has POOR customer. So I'm wondering if this what she thinks about people of color and she kept saying YES I'm frustrated I advise Jennifer if you're frustrated the paying customers should NEVER know how you feel...It's funny a lot of guest felt the same way saying she was very rude...She expressed it several times...Yes I'm upset. I advise how I felt in a positive way she was the aggressor.Just a fyi when you mistreat your customers we should NEVER know how you feel as a customer most people never post the good experience but the bad experience all of the time!!!!! The internet is very powerful tool...

If I could put zero stars I would! I have a horrible wedding day at this place! The owners was…read moreextremely rude to m, my husband and family! She was very impatience, disrespectful, dismissive, rude and racist! She told me and my family it was tacky to make her take payments for the additional people who attended my wedding. we gave her a additional $500 for the additional 12 people and she explained she would not be taking indivual payments because it was extra work for her! She told my family hurry up she is ready to go! Told us she would charge my card an additional $400 every additional 10 minutes and rushed our pictures and celebration even though we were the last wedding. I would not recommend this establishment to anyone! I very horrible owner and experience! Do NOT have your wedding here it will ruin your special day!

We had our wedding here in September and would highly recommend it. The property is beyond…read morebeautiful and has so many great spots for pictures. It is so well taken care of by the owners and it shows! Mirela and George went above and beyond to make our day special and exactly how we wanted it. They are both so genuinely kind, and you can tell they are passionate about what they do. George was our officiant and did a perfect job. He met with us beforehand and went over the ceremony with us a few times leading up to the wedding to make sure it was exactly what we wanted. Our day was truly perfect and ran so smoothly, thanks to them and their amazing assistant Grace. I cannot recommend the Historic Blum Barn enough!!

There is a reception area downstairs but it wasn't available. The church had a back entrance that we could push a wheelchair through. I wasn't sure if the reception area had a ramp or way to accommodate a wheelchair. The parking lot is small but there was neighborhood parking.

My husband and I were married here a week ago today, and it was truly a dream come true…read more My husband and I had decided on a small romantic wedding with only immediate family present and our two closest friends present. Christine was absolutely wonderful. She was patient and answered all of my questions, she made the whole process so much easier for us. The pictures do not do her home justice, and I loved that we were able to customize every detail about our ceremony. With the lighting and beautiful stained glass windows we got a lot of beautiful photos as well. It still almost seems unreal. If you are looking for an intimate wedding, and just want to keep it simple and classy, this is absolutely the place to go!

Came for a family wedding in September…read more Tucked away within a neighborhood. Beautiful outside especially the grounds with flowers and landscaping. Inside is very bright but stark. What once was an auditorium held the reception and it was pretty with high ceilings but again lacked much character. A ton of white everywhere. So brides/grooms need to bring in a lot of lighting and decorations to make the place theirs. Food was amazing. Buffet style. Food was hot and plentiful. Bar tenders and staff were friendly and attentive. Made great drinks! Bathrooms were updated and clean. Small cramped parking lot that was tricky to navigate. Wasn't that clear where to enter or how to get to the ceremony in the patio area. Overall, enjoyed ourselves.

This was one of the only options and they were willing to accommodate EVERYTHING. Chris and Mary were our photographers as well. Sweetest couple ever!!

I can't say enough positive things about my experience here with Chris and Mary. The facility…read moreitself was stunningly beautiful, but what really makes this place amazing was Mary and her unwavering support. I could visibly see my bride and mothers shoulders relax after meeting Mary for the first time, a few weeks before the wedding. Mary had all sorts of supplies we could use (all for free) and really knew her stuff. During our rehearsal, Mary instructed everyone to come to her on the day of the wedding. Not me (the groom), not my mother, not the bride, but her. She played the QB and handled everything. Guys, and girls, in a world where couples getting married are nickled and dimed for every little thing, this place is the opposite. Never once did Mary say something like "Sure, we can do that for an extra fee". Everything was "Oh sure, here's what I have, what do you think?" You can tell both Chris and Mary really enjoy their work. I have nothing but glowing comments to say about them and their facility. I would recommend them a hundred times over if I could. Go with them and their facility, you won't regret it.

Simply Amazing! My Daughter's wedding was 8/18/2018…read moreAnn Marie and her family made us feel a part of theirs! Communication was top notch, periodic calls to my Daughter (The Bride) just to see how she was doing and if she could do anything to help. We attended an open house there after booking and met with a baker they deal with often whose wares were out of this world, we booked with her on the spot! She and the caterers were also able to accommodate a Gluten-free menu for our daughter who has Celiac's disease! Also booked our Photographer/DJ/Videographer at that time as well. Ann Marie handles tux rentals herself, everything fit first try...even getting me harder to find wide shoes! All in all, I can't say enough nice things about the people, the venue or the experience! Book here and you won't be sorry!!!

Anne Marie was so sweet abs super helpful. She helped ease my moms nerves and Tom the preacher was amazing and light hearted and did a beautiful scripture.

They have a ton of stuff to help with decorations and the basement, although we didn't use it for the reception bc there wasn't one, was gorgeous! Very very happy with it all!
