The Barn at Shady Lane - Bessemer, Alabama

Heather Brown

Michael and Linda,
Thank you from the bottom of my heart for opening The Barn at Shady Lane! It truly is a ministry to those that want to celebrate love, family, and friends! Y’all go above and beyond to make everything perfect for a celebration we will cherish for the rest of our lives!
From the hospitality of everyone we came across, the beautiful and picture perfect grounds, the flawless “flip” from worship service to reception (even climbing a ladder to swag curtains), to handling issues that arise (like when we ordered a stage too big), and having a space where the bride and groom can enjoy the company of their most special friends while getting ready, and everything in between it was perfect!
Birmingham is blessed to have a venue like yours, and I appreciate you very much! My daughter was able to have the wedding of her dreams in an affordable and beautiful space!

We had our wedding here in May & it was perfect! The staff was incredibly helpful from the time we booked with them to the time we had our send off on wedding day. The venue is absolutely gorgeous in its natural state with great places everywhere to take pictures! Not to mention, they did a flip in 15 minutes!! If you are considering having your event here, we highly recommend Shady Lane!

My daughter had her wedding here in August! I can not say enough wonderful things about The Barn at Shady Lane and the owners Michael and Linda! They were amazing to work with and so helpful through out the whole process. And every vendor in town loves to work with them. Not to mention The Barn at Shady Lane is absolutely gorgeous! So many of our friends in town and out of town said it was a fairy tale wedding. If you are looking for the perfect place to have a wedding The Barn at Shady Lane is the best of the best!! Thank You Michael and Linda for everything!

Really great venue for the dinner I attended. Inside is open with lots of exposed wood. There's a large, covered patio along with green space for a peaceful event. It's location in/near Ross Bridge is convenient yet feels secluded. It's a lovely little place.

Wonderful people to work with at a beautiful venue. Had our daughter's wedding and reception there and the Adler's were most accommodating. It's like being out in the country without driving an hour to get there. Beautiful outdoor area, spacious indoor area, dressing area for the bride, and separate men's quarters. You can have your wedding there and then in less than 30 minutes it can be changed into a reception area. Truly amazing what they do. So glad we chose the Barn at Shady Lane.

Awesome venue for company Christmas party. Good spaces. Area for dancing and a band. Grounds were lovely. Plenty of parking.

As a local wedding planner who has planned many weddings here, you will not find a better place to host your ceremony, reception, holiday party, retirement party, etc! Every event I’ve ever been apart of here, has gone off without a hitch. Their staff is incredible, kind, FAST and efficient!! You will not regret hosting your wedding or event here!
