Choosing Bachilton Barn: Accessibility & Customization

Query: Why choose Bachilton Barn for an accessible wedding?

"Aside from being the most gorgeous space, inside and out, we loved how accessible it was for older friends and family in wheelchairs, crutches, and buggies," the couple shared.

A major deciding factor was the venue's flexibility. The Bachilton Barn team allowed Heather and Jamie to fully personalize their day, accommodating their specific needs for flat grounds, an outdoor photo location, and on-site accommodation for grandparents.
