The Historic Barn at Hidden Meadows Farm

The focal point of Hidden Meadows Farm is its antique barn. Built by the family in the early 1900s, the barn still maintains much of its original character more than a century later. Vaulted ceilings reach 30 feet above weathered wooden floors constructed from timber harvested on the property. You can also see reminders of the barn’s original use, including former horse stalls now lined with string lights. Attached to the barn is a stone silo that has been converted into a lounge area.

Indoor Wedding Receptions in the Barn

String lights provide warm lighting throughout the barn for wedding receptions. The 3,500-square-foot interior can accommodate up to 200 seated guests, with space for dinner, dancing, and the rest of the reception. The barn also gives you an indoor reception option while keeping guests connected to the surrounding farm and mountain setting.

Outdoor Wedding Spaces and Smoky Mountain Views

Outside the barn, a stone patio provides space for cocktail hour. Wooden picnic tables surround the area near a stone fireplace, and there is also a fire pit for later in the evening. Couples have several options for an outdoor wedding ceremony. You can get married between the barn and pasture with the Smoky Mountains in the distance or hold your ceremony beneath the branches of the property’s large oak tree.

Getting Ready at Hidden Meadows Farm

An on-site home gives the wedding party a separate place to get ready without leaving the property. The space includes a living room, kitchen, and two large bedrooms. The cottage also has a wrap-around porch with rocking chairs overlooking the meadow, giving you additional space to spend time with your people before the ceremony.
