Since our very first barn venue was listed on the Directory, it seems like you guys have always loved a barn wedding venue and we can definitely see why.

More often than not, they’re available to hire on an exclusive basis so you can celebrate with your friends and family without the worry of any interruptions. They’re incredibly diverse too, so no matter what your preferred wedding style may be, they offer a blank canvas where you can really showcase your personalities.

We’re lucky enough to have some of the UK’s (and beyond!) dreamiest barn wedding venues and today we’re offering you a little insight into our collection. Rustic, romantic, historical, industrial, contemporary – you name it, we’ve got it covered.

Enjoy!
