When Central PA couples come to One Barn Farm, they usually say the same thing. They want space, time, and privacy. They do not want to rush through their wedding day or share the property with another event.
We are located in the Village of White Springs in Mifflinburg, Pennsylvania, surrounded by preserved countryside, woodlands, and mountain valley views. When you book with us, the entire property is yours. From the first planning visit to the last goodbye after teardown, we stay focused on one celebration at a time.
Why Central PA Couples Choose One Barn Farm for a Private Wedding Experience
One Barn Farm spans over 90 acres, and we host only one event per day. That means no overlapping arrivals, no shared parking, and no competing timelines. Your guests move comfortably from one space to the next without feeling crowded or rushed.
Ceremonies often take place on the Estate Lawn. Cocktail hour can flow into the Courtyard or Terrace Garden. Dinner and dancing are held inside our award-winning Pennsylvania Bank Barn, which can seat approximately 225 guests depending on layout. Each space is distinct, but close enough to keep the day feeling connected.
A Full Weekend Structure That Reduces Stress
Instead of a short rental window, weddings here are planned across an entire weekend. For Saturday celebrations, access begins on Thursday. You have time to decorate, rehearse, and settle in without watching the clock. Friday and Sunday weddings follow the same flexible structure.
This schedule gives couples room to enjoy the process, welcome family early, and avoid the pressure that comes with same-day setup and teardown.
Historic Spaces with a Clear Sense of Place
The property includes a timber frame Bank Barn and a historic stone farmhouse known as Rippon Manor. The farmhouse was described in an 1855 local history as a mansion, and today it remains a visual anchor for the estate. Around it, you will find lawns, meadows, pastures, woodlands, two large ponds, and two miles of walking trails.
These are not decorative backdrops. They are part of a working farm and wildlife preserve that has been carefully maintained for decades. Couples often tell us the setting feels grounded and real, not staged.
Getting Ready Areas That Keep the Day Comfortable
We offer two separate getting-ready areas for the Central PA couple’s wedding party.
The Bridal Cottage is a private cottage with air conditioning, a private bath, multiple vanities, bedrooms, and a kitchen. The Groom’s Lounge is a newly built, temperature-controlled space located across from the barn. Having these spaces on site allows everyone to stay close without crossing paths unless you want to.
On-site Support without Taking Over Your Plans
A dedicated venue manager assists throughout the planning process and remains on site during the event. On the wedding day, our staff helps with parking, coordination, and venue operations.
Our role is to support the flow of the day and help vendors and guests arrive smoothly. Central PA Couples celebrate while knowing someone familiar with the property is always available.
Tables, Chairs, and Setup Essentials Included
We provide custom-built wooden tables, a large collection of round tables, and 225 Chiavari chairs. Having these items already on site simplifies planning and reduces the need for additional rentals.
Layouts are determined based on your guest count and event flow, with capacity always tied to how the space is used.
Conclusion
Planning a wedding at One Barn Farm is about giving yourself time and space. Time to prepare, celebrate, and enjoy the people who matter most. Privacy here is not a promise we make lightly. It is built into how the property operates and how we host every event.
If Central PA couples are looking for a Central Pennsylvania wedding venue where your celebration stands alone, we would love to show you around.
