1. Spacious Venue

Green Acres Event Center is not an ordinary barn venue. It’s an enchanting space that boasts multiple areas for your guests to enjoy. Inside the barn, guests will enter on the lower level where they will be received in a warm welcome. Comfy lounge furniture and eclectic décor fill the space so folks can get settled in, mingle, and hit the bar for a beverage to kick off the event. Once it’s time to head to the main feature, they will head upstairs to the Great Room Loft where the real memories are made. The Gothic arch-shaped roof and 3100 square foot space is perfect for your seated reception, presentation, or main event to take place.

Head outdoors to explore our grounds adorned with decorative barn equipment, seating, and a fire pit where guests can roast marshmallows into the evening. Planning a wedding? Our outdoor ceremony space is a beautiful spot to say your vows on-site and save on booking an additional venue for your ceremony.

Provide your guests with more than just a big open space, give them an experience. With Green Acres, they’ll love the multi-level venue and outdoor features, making your event more interesting and memorable without having to spend more on rentals.

Green Acres adds elegance, luxury, and charm to any event. The crystal chandeliers that hang from the Gothic Arch roof make for a dramatic effect, leveling up your event from the start. The meticulously refurbished original woodwork of the space provides character and charm. On either side of the Great Room Loft, the arched nooks add another layer of interest to the space and your event.

Our venue boasts so much glamour and allure that you don’t have to invest in lots of décor. The space speaks for itself and is fitting for any type of event and theme. Let the natural beauty of the venue stand on its own and save on your budget.
