Weddings, birthdays, company parties and other celebrations for up to 120 guests indoors, and up to 200 with the outdoor area, can be held at Rue's, a rustic event barn at Bockenau, near Bad Kreuznach in the Nahe region. The barn combines an event location, a bar and a restaurant on one site.
Seminars and company events
Company parties and firm events are one of the three uses the hosts name, with weddings and birthdays. The barn suits a summer party, a team evening or a client celebration: the indoor space seats up to 120 people, and the outdoor area extends the event in good weather for groups of up to 200. The hosts work with small and large groups and adapt the format to each request.
Weddings and receptions
Weddings are the main reason couples come to Rue's. The barn was built with the idea of a place where people could share special moments with those closest to them. The hosts can run the whole day as a full-service partner, with catering, decoration and professional service staff from one hand. Couples who prefer to organize part of the event themselves can do so; the split between the team and the couple is set at the start. Viewings can be arranged, and requests are accepted at any time by the online form, phone or WhatsApp.
Rooms and capacities
The indoor event area covers about 250 m² and seats up to 120 guests. A further 200 m² outdoors brings the total capacity to up to 200 people, for a reception, a drinks hour or a summer evening. The barn's rustic character, designed by its founder, sets an informal, warm tone for a long dinner and a party afterward.
Catering
The house catering covers the food for events, together with decoration and service staff. On weekends without a private event, the barn opens as a restaurant serving smash burgers and Neapolitan-style pizza from a stone pizza oven, with tables by reservation and food to take away. That kitchen and its oven can also give organizers an idea of the style of food on offer for their own event.
History and setting
Rüdiger Messer built the barn in 2007. His aim was a place where anyone could celebrate important moments with family and friends, and he designed the barn for weddings, birthdays and company events. Today Miri and Dennis run it under the name Rue's, in memory of its founder, and keep it as an event barn with a restaurant on free weekends.
Getting there
Rue's is at Daubacher Brücke 3a, 55595 Bockenau, in the countryside near Bad Kreuznach. The team can be reached by phone or WhatsApp, and also through the contact form on the website, which it answers around the clock.
