HEllo I am looking for anyone that knows information about pricing for Betsy's Barn. I have left multiple messages and emails and have not been contacted back yet. I just need a ball park figure to give to my mom so we can decide to persue this venue or keep looking! Thanks so much.

Even if you have pricing... consider whether you want to use a vendor who does not respond when necessary -- especially if planning from out-of-state!

Definitely agree with InkedMegs. That'd be a big red flag for me. If they don't even respond to you now when they're trying to get your contract, how are they going to be when they already have your deposit? I have no knowledge of this venue, but I'd keep that warning in mind.

I agree, any vendor that wouldn't get back to me was immediately crossed off my list.  If you have to chase them now, I wouldn't want to risk it when it came down to go time.

Agree with everyone else too... But I figured I'd at least forward you the info so you could decide : A similar venue you may want to consider is Lingrow Farm. I'm getting married there next July and I have no problems getting responses from them and it's beautiful out there. It is a bit pricey not much more than Betsy's Barn but they include a lot in their package and it's cheaper if you do an April wedding or a wedding anytime on a Friday or Sunday. GL!

Normaly I would cross then off my list as well but the family that owns the farm has had multiple deaths in the family within the last week. My grandmother is in the state so that how we found out about the deaths. Thank you all so much.
