THE BARN AT IVY OAKS
Welcome to The Barn at Ivy Oaks, a boutique wedding venue on a private estate nestled among 150 year old oak trees, amidst the lush farmlands of Northern Alabama. Located in New Market, thirty minutes from Huntsville, and 4 miles from the Tennessee border, our historic 9 acre estate dates back to the early 1900’s and features a beautiful rustic event barn, grounds that offer multiple ceremony locations, several furnished covered porch areas and a variety of wedding packages. The Barn at Ivy Oaks offers customizable options to meet the wishes of each couple. We can accommodate up to 150 guests inside the barn, host rehearsal dinners, and offer several celebration packages whether it be for weddings, birthdays, anniversaries, or corporate functions. We love weddings and are honored to help you make your dreams come true.
About Us
In May of 2022, after planning and having our very own rustically elegant barn wedding, we knew that making this a reality for other couples was something we’d love to do! We began our search for the perfect venue, and it was love at first sight when we happened upon this stunning estate. With property dating back to 1904, and a historic home built in 1930, the towering old oak trees covered in ivy were the inspiration for The Barn at Ivy Oaks. Our family looks forward to providing couples with a bespoke experience and sharing a boutique venue that will make the most beautiful backdrop for one of the most memorable days of your life! Packages below outline the customizable options for your special day.
