"My husband and I met while both working at Dover High School, which is minutes away from The Preston Barn. We had been to the site before for brunch, happy hour and dinner. After getting engaged, we quickly booked The Preston Barn because of the significance of the location, Dover, has in our relationship and also for the warmth we felt every time we stepped into the rustic, lit up barn. From the stone curved pathway, charming quaint inn, relaxing adirondack chairs and breath taking barn, this was where we wanted to start our forever. Helene, Donna and the rest of the staff at The Preston Barn made us feel special in every way. The toast with our immediate family right after our ceremony was a sweet touch. We appreciated how our cards were handled with care (cellophane wrapped). All of our guests commented on how attentive the staff was, from when we arrived Friday afternoon, to when we left Sunday morning. The staff truly went above and beyond. We spent the weekend without a single worry, knowing everything was taken care of. We will be forever grateful to have gotten married at The Preston Barn at Old Drovers Inn!"

Thank you Kathleen & Bryan!!

If you’ve recently begun planning your wedding (Congrats, btw!) and looking for venue options in Upstate New York, or the Hudson Valley, then you’re probably asking yourself some of these questions: Why do venues cost this much? Why are there so many levels of pricing for different venues?

"The Preston Barn was the perfect venue to bring our dream wedding to life! Everything about it was just amazing and exceeded my expectations. The elegant, rustic style of the barn was gorgeous and we loved dancing the night away underneath the twinkle lights. The food was absolutely delicious and is something that our guests raved about! We were able to have a bonfire with smores and a sparkler exit at night which were beautiful touches that the venue helped us execute. After our wedding ended, the fun didn't stop! We had so much fun with our bridal party for an afterparty in the Tavern. We loved staying at the beautiful Inn and Carriage house with our family and bridal party and enjoyed having breakfast on property with them the next morning. Helene, the wedding coordinator, does an amazing job. She made us feel so supported throughout the entire planning process and frequently checked in with us to see how things were going. Day of our wedding when we had a few hiccups (rain and buses not arriving), Helene was there to quickly and efficiently smooth things over without missing a beat. She made sure our wedding day ran seamlessly and that we did not have to worry about anything. Additionally, we were originally supposed to get married in the Spring of 2020 when COVID hit. Although having our wedding postponed at that time was a harsh reality, Helene and the staff at The Preston Barn handled this situation with grace, supported us, and worked with us to ensure that everything still turned out perfectly in the end. We truly appreciated how kind they were to us during such uncertain times. The Preston Barn and the beautiful wedding memories it gave us will forever hold a special place in our hearts. From start to finish, our wedding weekend was more than we could have dreamed of. Almost a year later, we continue to get countless complements on our wedding! My husband and I plan to go back to celebrate our first wedding anniversary there this year and hope to make this a tradition for many years to come!"

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Testimonial Tuesday!

"The Preston Barn at Old Drovers Inn is a hidden gem in the Hudson Valley. The minute we saw this glorious setting, we knew it was for us. The grounds are simply beautiful. Acres of beauty for us to enjoy the ENTIRE wedding weekend. This is the most picturesque of venues and I haven't even mentioned the barn. The barn was breath taking; beautiful, exposed wood, with a large space making it the perfect space for the reception. What makes this venue so special is that it's a one stop shop kind of place; we had our rehearsal dinner at the Old Drovers Inn restaurant on site and all the wedding/cocktail food was sources on site, and let me say, the food was AMAZING. Our guests raved about it for days. Lots of options and customizable too. They were very accommodating to my guests with allergies. Helene and the whole staff was so great to work with. Every question was answered by the patient and attentive staff. They all helped to make our wedding day perfect! Run, don't walk to book this one of a kind special place for your wedding."

Wow 🤩 Thank you Ashley & Perry! 🫶🏻

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Testimonial Tuesday!

Thank you Kristen and Dean!

“Helene and her team at The Preston Barn were amazing. The day (and the whole wedding weekend) went so smoothly. They know exactly what they are doing and how to make the experience enjoyable for everyone. They go above and beyond there. After a hurricane came and it poured on our rehearsal dinner, we made the decision to have the ceremony in the tent. Day of, the sky cleared and it was beautiful. Her team took down the tent walls and set up cocktail hour outside. It was exactly what we wanted! We had so many compliments on the food and drinks. We chose a buffet and we are so glad we did. Breakfast at the inn was also delicious and the accommodations were fantastic. Highly recommend this venue!!”
