The Barn at Smuggler's Notch is such a stunning venue and so well-thought out. A modern canvas that lends itself well to any color scheme and any wedding theme. Sweeping mountain views. Stunning bridal suite. Plenty of space. That is why we originally selected it as our wedding venue. What we didn't know at the time is that we were hiring some of the best wedding professionals in the business - the dynamic duo of Steve & Jenn. I am not exaggerating when I say I'd get married pretty much anywhere as long as they were running the show. Let me start with how incredibly responsive they were. As a wedding vendor also, this is something I greatly appreciate. I would ask a question and get a response usually within 10 minutes. Jenn & Steve made everything pretty effortless for us. Steve helped us with bar selections, table lay out and set up specialty cocktails. Jenn coordinated with all of our vendors for arrival times, set up and take down. We were able to drop off all of our decor ... Read moreon a Wednesday and Jenn had it all set up when we came Friday for our rehearsal. What a special treat for our bridal party and close family to be able to preview the venue with the majority of the decor set up. A review of our wedding day: we had downpours in the morning and in to the afternoon. The team at the Barn set up for an indoor ceremony just in case. Our ceremony was at 4:30pm and downpours came again at 4:15. As I (the bride) was coming down the stairs the clouds parted and I gave the nod to have the ceremony outside - probably right at 4:30pm. Jenn had the team dry off chairs outside not once, but twice after 4pm and we were able to have our ceremony outside, just as we had envisioned. I doubt you will find this level of flexibility anywhere else where you can literally make the call at the very last minute - it meant everything to us to be able to get married with the mountains in the background. The rest of the night was absolutely flawless. Steve made sure to bring us cocktails during dinner, Jenn brought us an array of apps so we could enjoy our cocktail hour while photos were being taken. I had no idea what time it was all throughout the night, but Jenn made sure things were executed on time. She clearly is a professional and seems so chill but is also so organized and direct when she needs to be. The Barn is no doubt the best place to get married in Vermont. I wish I could do it all over again - every moment was absolutely magical. Thanks Steve & Jenn for our perfect day - look forward to working with you both as a wedding vendor and getting to visit the place we got married often.

Steve and Jen are amazing! As many brides and grooms can tell you, planning a wedding during COVID is not ideal. Steve and Jen were helping us the entire time. From updates on the Vermont governor's guidlines, to suggestions on day of timelines, they really put our anxiety at ease during this whole experience. They responded to emails almost instantly every time. Before COVID started, Steve and Jen gave us a list of trusted vendors that they work with frequently for weddings. These vendors were nothing but professional and all provided a high quality service. Their suggestions helped us narrow down who we would work with and made our planning process much easier. During our wedding weekend, Steve and Jen were extremely flexible and gracious. Since the wedding the day before ours cancelled, they allowed us to go to the barn early to set up decorations. Jen was a great day of planner who led us during the rehearsal and made sure the day went smoothly and according to timeli... Read morene. When setting up lawn games, Jen even brought out the barn's corn hole to add to our collection. Our family could not stop talking about how kind Jen and Steve are. Last but not least, the beauty of the barn! The wildflowers are gorgeous, the grounds are clean. The mountains in the background made for great pictures! We had the wedding of our dreams thanks to Jen and Steve and would recommend the barn and their services to anyone!

Jen and Steve were so easy to work with from the start. They were accommodating and flexible. They helped me every step of the way to make my day possible. I highly recommend this venue

My wedding day was everything I’ve dreamed of since I was a little girl thanks to Jenn & Steve at The Barn. After plans changed two months prior to the wedding, Steve was incredibly helpful with every question I asked and Jenn ran the wedding day perfectly. The field and the barn itself are absolutely stunning, the bridal suite is perfect, and you couldn’t ask for a better location for a chic barn wedding! Thank you

Jennifer and Steve are terrific. We had the most perfect wedding day, and can't imagine how we would have done it without them. Jennifer is an absolute boss and makes sure your day is everything you ever wished it would be and more. Both of them were so so helpful, respectful, organized and timely with all of my wedding planning questions and needs. OH, and the venue is just breathtaking. The barn is beautiful, from the bridal suite, to the tables and chandeliers, the bar and the bathrooms, literally everything is amazing, and that's not even the best part, the backdrop to the outdoor ceremony is jaw dropping. You get the most beautiful mountains in the background and a field of wildflowers, like what more could you ask for? If you're trying to find a wedding venue honestly look no further. We had the best time and wish we could go back to the barn every weekend and do it again.

The Barn at Smugglers’ Notch is a dream come true! Not only is there the most perfect views of Mount Mansfield, but also a perfect venue to make your wedding the most beautiful day. Our wedding was executed just as we planned without any hiccups thanks to Steve and Jennifer. The bridal loft was perfect for the bridal party to get ready and relax before the start of festivities. My favorite part of the loft was looking out the windows and watching all our family and friends gather together with smiles and excitement and best of all, my groom waiting for me at the flower covered arbor. Just by looking out that loft window it made all stress that I had go away because I saw how perfect everything was. All our food was outstanding and delicious, our guests were so pleased and still talk about all the dishes. Thank you Cast Iron Catering for all your hard work and wonderful flavors you provided us and presentation of the food. We wish we could re live this day over and over again ...

Thank you again Steve and Jennifer for providing our family and friend’s excellent service by your staff, a lovely venue, gorgeous views and a memory of a lifetime! The Barn at Smugglers’ Notch truly is an amazing venue and they take great pride in their work. Thank you!! Take Care, Aundrea & Matt Brunelle

We can’t express how happy and thankful we are for having our wedding at the barn! Steve and Jenn were the best venue owners, day of coordination wedding planners and helped make us feel truly loved. Everything from the bridal suite to the bar was amazing, we wouldn’t change one thing about our day. All of the details from the barn itself, the tables and chairs and the beautiful staircase were what made us fall in love with our venue. The weather was perfect which was just an added bonus. We would recommend The Barn at Smuggler’s Notch to anyone who is trying to find the perfect Vermont wedding venue!

It’s been a month since we said “I Do” and Dave and I are still swooning over what a perfect wedding day we had at The Barn! Steve and Jen were a amazing to work with, and Steve’s response rate was incredible! Everything was a dream, from the gorgeous bridal suite, to their flexibility in set-up timelines and last minute help, to the gorgeous grounds and all the Barn details. We couldn’t have asked for a better venue to handle our Best Day Ever! This was the first venue we looked at, and it proved to be the best choice! Thank you for making our dream wedding come true!

We were so happy with our wedding at the Barn at Smugglers Notch! It was everything we had hoped for and was truly magical! The mountain views are absolutely stunning and the barn allows for a blank canvas that you can make your own. Our vision came to life and our guests had such an amazing time! Steve and Jenn were so helpful throughout the process and were very responsive with any questions or concerns I had. The bridal suite was perfect and had ample space for my very large bridal party. I highly recommend checking out this beautiful venue! :)

We could talk about what great people Steve and Jenn are-the fact that we clicked with them right away and never felt like our wedding was just a business transaction at their incredible venue. Steve opened up the barn on a random Sunday following a Saturday event, just so my mother could see it during a visit. We could speak at length about the how good their partners are-Smugglers Notch Resort (in our case accommodations, shuttle service, breakfast), Cast Iron Catering, Jay Kennedy (photographer), Vermont Tent Company, etc. Steve and Jenn are a dynamic duo. Jenn was phenomenal with the coordination and details the day of the ceremony. Steve put our mind at ease with his attentiveness and logistics throughout the process. But, I think what is most telling, and likely the most beneficial to those considering The Barn, is some of the feedback we heard throughout the evening, and for weeks after: "What an incredible venue in a fantastic setting" "This is the nicest wedding we've... Read more ever been too" "Steve and Jenn are so relaxed and so good at what they do" "We've never had better food at a wedding" "Have to say, it was PERFECT" While the weather obviously can't be controlled, we were fortunate that it cooperated. We experienced one of those perfect fall days in the peak of foliage that only someone who lives in New England or has experienced it can truly appreciate. I mention this, because in conjunction with the venue, being able to have our ceremony with Mount Mansfield looming in the background made they day that much more memorable and special for us.

Steve and Jen are amazing! Steve's response time has to break records! They were so helpful and easy to work with. Our wedding could not have been more perfect! The team and venue is absolutely amazing!!!!

We cannot express how amazing this venue is! From day one, Steve was always very responsive to questions and accommodations during the planning process. We were able to go to the venue multiple times during planning to be able to see our vision with decor and centerpieces. The morning of our wedding, the bridal party relaxed in the beautiful bridal suite. It was raining in the morning and Jenn was able to keep all of our nerves at ease with having an indoor ceremony set up for us if needed. About 10 minutes before the ceremony, the rain cleared and sun appeared. Jenn and her outstanding team prepared for an outdoor ceremony and transformed the inside back to the dining room. It was absolutely amazing! Steve and Jenn both made sure that our day went smoothly and most importantly that we were having the best night of our lives. Their team was very accommodating and the food was delicious! Our guests all had a great time and still talk about our wedding 6 months later. The barn exceeded o...

It’s hard to summarize how amazing this venue and establishment is. From the first time seeing the barn we fell in love with its beauty and elegance on top of the stunning backdrop. If that wasn’t a selling point in itself, the owners Steve and Jen were an absolute pleasure to work with. They are hands on and helpful during the entire process, responsive within hours and care so much for their guests. We truly will miss getting to see and talk to them now that our wedding is over, but we know it won’t be the last time at the barn! Steve was serving us and our guests drinks during the night and Jen tended to us with drinks and food all night. The whole catering staff and bar staff were loved by all our guests. The food was fresh, delicious and menu created personally by us. Our guests couldn’t believe the efficiency and how quickly they were served at the bar, and the Stowe Winery’s wine is amazing!

The dance floor was packed the entire night. Hands down best venue! Thank you Steve and Jen from the bottom of our hearts !

This wedding venue is absolutely breathtaking!!!! My husband introduced me to Vermont and I instantly fell in love and wanted our dream wedding here!!! The Barn at Smugglers Notch is beautiful inside and outside. We had our ceremony outside and having Mount Mansfield and a field of wildflowers in the background was absolutely GORGEOUS!!!! All of our guests had the best time and couldn’t stop talking about the view and the stunning Barn!!! Steve and Jen were awesome and did such a great job helping out with everything! And they are both so nice and we felt like we have known them for a long time. The catering was on point!!!! We did the BBQ and most of my guests went up for seconds it was so good!!!
