I don't even know where to begin with how happy we are with Jason, Molly, Molly's dad, Greg, and our experience at The Brauer Barn. They were always super accommodating.

Cameran Fry

Gorgeous venue; attended for the wedding of close friends. It ended up snowing and cold that day, so the ceremony was moved inside and everything was still absolutely beautiful.

James Gray

Great venue for weddings and large get togethers. The owners are great and super friendly.
