The perfect barn for your perfect day
My wife, Abbey, and I both grew up on farms in Wisconsin. We both chose careers that lead us away from the farm and into the cities, where our paths eventually crossed. We got married and made a very nice home together, and soon after brought a little baby boy into it. Although we lived in a great area and enjoyed many things the city had to offer, each visit to our families farms made us want to return. It was this love for the farm and our desire to raise our children there that made us decide to sell our house and find a farm to buy. That is what lead us to this beautiful place near Delavan!
A few years ago, the previous owners of this farm cleaned out the barn in order for their son to have his wedding reception here. They eventually started allowing other people to have their weddings and receptions here, which laid the ground work for this old white rustic barn to become an amazing venue for couples to celebrate their day with their family and friends. Before they bought this farm, it was a dairy farm for about 75 years. The house and original part of the barn were built around 1920, creating a nearly century old gem that stands out at the front of 35 acres. Many of the buildings are still on the property, providing a very well-kept setting that is ideal for weddings and photography.
Though it was the homestead where a couple settled their family and built a home, for many in our state’s history, it was the farmstead that provided for the family and made the home possible. The farmstead was the center of the families life, where everyone worked together to make it succeed, and provided the ideal setting for children to learn to work and play. It was these values and traditions that made us name our venue ‘The Farmstead’. At The Farmstead, we want to create an amazing setting for you to enjoy your special day with your family and friends. We have tables and chairs for up to 200 people to come and gather. We also work with each couple to allow them to make this day exactly what they want it to be. With no minimum purchases or vendor requirements, we provide a great setting that is also affordable.
