About the Owners
Laurel Ridge barn is owned and operated by Tyler and Christi Childress. They have four beautiful children Bentley, Jackson, Thomas, and Emma. Tyler and Christi were high school sweethearts who then fell in love in 2004 and got married in 2010. Originally they fell in love with the “barn” concept when they went to a family member’s “barn” wedding in Kansas. They believe clients will love the open concept, and the large window wall. They would love the opportunity to be a part of your big day!
Reviews About Laurel Ridge
“This is the venue for YOUR wedding. Or for your corporate or private event… Even a family reunion… An amazing venue, just look at the pictures. This venue had it all. The room for whatever you need. The parking for your guests. The view for amazing pictures. You can see from the pictures that the inside is a modern, yet rustic white. So much light gets in too. Tables, chairs, partial bar. Ample bathroom space. The loft can easily accommodate probably a couple of hundred people and has the most amazing view looking out to the east. You can see from the photographs also that the main floor sets up wonderfully for table seating, or whatever your need might be. You could easily clear the floor for having a wedding dance too. I am a full-time musician who provided entertainment for a wedding. From a technical end, you need to plan to bring your own gear. They do have a good Bose system installed but do not have a sound guy on site.
You could send a lead out of your mixing board to the house speaker system. They have some options of microphones available, whether wired, wireless or a lapel microphone. If you are planning for a band event, you need to bring for your own needs. The room is huge and very lively from an acoustical perspective. That being said, something like a drum will probably saturate the room unless you have some kind of soundproofing or barrier for your drummer. As such, the large ceilings and flat walls add a great reflective sound for minimalistic instrumentation as well. There’s also a large outdoor patio area for visiting or entertaining outside. The facility does have the ability to mix via an iPad from several different types of inputs whether on the loft area or on the main floor, and the staff will show you how to operate the iPad-controlled mixer for these inputs.
The facility is kept impeccably clean and you will need only to provide for your own individual stylistic additions to make your event yours. Schedule an appointment, visit with Tyler, and book your event. I have played in several hundred venues, and this is definitely one of the unique places. As I mentioned at the beginning, this would be an awesome location for a catered meal for a private or corporate event as well. Not just weddings. Use it for your next family reunion. For a business meeting.” Greg H.
“This event barn is one of a kind. The design and scenery are like no other barn in the area. After experiencing an outdoor wedding next to the barn and a reception/dance inside the barn, this venue is well-organized and creates a great atmosphere to celebrate a special day. I would highly recommend this facility to anyone that is searching for a place to hold a great celebration!” Tyler K.
