About

The Great Good Barn is a farm wedding venue located in Mates Corner, New Brunswick. Nestled on two acres within the idyllic countryside, this historic barn dates to 1883. It offers couples a serene backdrop for their nuptials while remaining close to towns like Moncton, Sackville, and Amherst. The venue is ideal for soon-to-be newlyweds who wish to celebrate with their loved ones in a private, picturesque setting.

Facilities and Capacity

This barn has been carefully preserved to protect its historic quality. Its owners have lovingly restored the building while retaining many of the original features. The pegged post and beam barn reflects the 19th-century architectural style. With very few changes to the interior, the building exudes historic appeal. The venue boasts a main floor area and a mezzanine level where guests can view the festivities from above and photographers can capture unique images. Couples can personalize the warm wood interior with decor, lighting, and furniture to enhance the space. The venue provides tables and chairs to accommodate 99 guests. Additionally, there is an outdoor patio area where newlyweds and guests can mingle and enjoy the fresh air. It also serves as a memorable backdrop for summer ceremonies when the surrounding greenery is in full bloom. The property’s gardens and tranquil pond are beautiful spots for romantic photo opportunities. Beyond the gardens and patio, the expertly manicured field is available for guests to use for lawn games.

Services Offered

The staff at The Great Good Barn strives to host memorable events for all in attendance. The venue’s owners are dedicated to creating a warm and inviting atmosphere so couples can connect with their loved ones on their special day. They are delighted to offer guided tours of the property and facilities to those looking to book the venue. A member of staff will be on-site throughout the duration of the event to ensure the smooth execution of the events. They invite clients to work with vendors of their choice to provide services like florals and catering. Caterers are welcome to use the on-site kitchen prior to serving guests. The barn is also equipped with a sound system to accommodate event entertainment.
