In 2005, we purchased this 45-acre property in Lake Wales, Florida (just a short drive from Orlando, Tampa or Florida’s east coast). Since that time we have manicured and transformed the farm/ranch into the perfect wedding and event venue while maintaining the property for our loves of flying, fishing, horses, and growing sugar cane for future rum distilling! We hope you will find that Sugar Barn is an elegant and unique experience that will make your wedding dreams come true.

Had our wedding at the Sugar Barn this past weekend!!! The property is beautiful and we received endless compliments on how pretty everything was. It is a great family owned business. We wouldn’t change a thing about our wedding weekend. Thanks Bill and Julia!!

Beautiful setting, very professional and proficient owners that go above and beyond. We were looking for an all-inclusive package, which they offered. It made the event hassle free and it flowed seamlessly. Food was unbelievable! Would highly recommend.

The Sugar Barn staff made sure our day was everything we ever dreamt of! They treated us like family throughout the entire process, and I will forever recommend everyone I know to this venue! The bridal suite was a dream come true with natural lighting, plenty of space for hair and makeup, an in suite bathroom, and plenty of space for everyone!
