There’s a lot that could be said about the last 45 days since the fire at The Barn on Mullan. Truthfully, no article or post could fully capture what this experience has been like behind the scenes.
What many people see is simply “a venue.” But behind it has always been a team of real people, real friendships, and years of memories tied to this place.
The last month and a half has been filled with constant change, difficult conversations, lots of long days, heartache, and embracing roles far beyond any of our job norms. This is something none of us have ever experienced before either. We know we haven’t done everything perfectly, but every decision and conversation has come from a place of genuinely trying to do right by our clients, staff, and community with the information we had available at the time.
This experience has reminded us of how quickly life can humble you. Just two days before the fire we completed our largest scheduled event for the season, then our first wedding of the year. We were preparing for what we thought would be our best and busiest season yet. Then overnight, everything changed.
Through all of this, we’ll never forget the people who chose to treat us like human beings first. The patience, empathy, encouragement, and grace shown by so many clients, vendors, friends, and community members is appreciated more than we can ever put into words.
The Barn on Mullan has always been more than just a building to us, and while losing it in this way has been heartbreaking, we are incredibly hopeful for what comes next and fully intend to rebuild back even better for 2027.
Most importantly, I (Delaney), on behalf of everyone at The Barn on Mullan, want to thank everyone who has stood behind us so far on the way back up.
