About this venue
Let the historic Columbia County Fairhouse and its surrounding buildings create the perfect backdrop for your unique country wedding. Decorate with hanging lanterns from the barn rafters or hay bales with wildflower bouquets to create the rustic charm and atmosphere you dream of for your special day. While your bridal party has photos taken by the barns, pond and fountain, your guests will enjoy cocktails and hors d’oeuvres on adjacent lawns and in the show ring among the whiskey barrels of summer flowers and shade trees. Complete your celebration with a champagne toast beside a split-rail fence and you have a wedding to remember.
