We Are
Wingate Barn
Weddings & Events Venue
Nestled in the heart of Livonia, NY, The Wingate Barn unfolds a chapter from the late 1800s, beginning its story as a vibrant working dairy farm. With a legacy of nurturing life, from the loft that cradled feed to the warm shelter provided for livestock below, this barn has witnessed the passage of time with grace. In the loving hands of Dolores Cicero and later, Roger & Leighana Wing, the barn has blossomed over the past 20 years into a breathtaking venue, playing host to a tapestry of beautiful weddings, joyful birthday celebrations, heartfelt family reunions, and memorable school events.
Envision your dream wedding in a setting that whispers tales of love and history, where rustic charm meets elegance under the soft glow of string lights and lanterns—a place where every corner is a backdrop for your love story. The Wingate Barn, with its heartwarming allure, invites you to step into a world where your most cherished moments come to life amidst the scenic beauty of hay and cornfields, spread across 8 acres of serene land. From the Groom’s Suite, ingeniously reborn from the original milking parlor, to the Bride’s Suite, a nostalgic nod to the barn’s heritage, every detail is designed with your fairy-tale event in mind.
As we continue to lovingly enhance The Wingate Barn, from elegant decks and modern amenities to our enchanting bridal room—once the farm’s milk house—we’re dedicated to creating a venue that not only honors its rich history but also frames your special day in unparalleled beauty. Imagine your guests reveling in delightful lawn games or wandering through the property, captivated by the stunning farmland vistas and the mesmerizing sunsets unique to Livonia, NY. The Wingate Barn is more than a venue; it’s a place where memories are made, where your dreams of a perfect day become reality. We invite you to celebrate your love, your milestones, and your joy with us, in a place where every moment is imbued with magic.
