Amazing hidden gem of a venue!
There aren’t enough words to describe how perfect our wedding day was. Charlotte was there every step of the way and we couldn’t have done it without her! Nothing was too much hassle and she kept us calm answering my 1000 daily questions. Everyone we speak to say says how amazing this hidden gem of a venue is and how it was such a happy day. The food was just delicious and you could really tell it was good quality local produce! I wish we could do it all over again. Thank you again so much!

An amazing team in an equally fabulous venue.
We loved Bennetts Willow Barn from first seeing photos online. We had made our mind up before we even viewed it, and it did not disappoint, We wanted a wedding venue that was different from all the weddings we have been to over the years, and this was just perfect for us. The yurt is brilliant and the barn so pretty. We wanted a festival wedding where our guests could have fun and stay over to make a real weekend of our wedding. The team were amazing and we felt so well looked after. Charlotte helped us lots with the planning, working out a timetable for the day and recommending suppliers. The food was brilliant. We even all had a cooked breakfast in the barn the morning! I wish we could do it all over again! An amazing team in an equally fabulous venue. Thank you!

A fantastic day
I just wanted to take the opportunity to thank all the staff at Bennetts Willow Barn and Worcester Glamping for a fantastic day. We had an amazing time and our guests loved it. The food, yurts and care were more than we could have hoped. Nobody could have done anything more.

Relaxed, fun & quirky
Bennetts Willow Barn was an amazing venue for our wedding day. Lucy was beyond amazing onthe day, she helped myself (groom) and all my groomsmen set up for the big day. We have no eye for decorating and relied heavily on her artists eye to make the venue look amazing. The venue was everything we wanted- relaxed, fun and quirky. We could also have our dog with us for our special day. Bennetts Willow Barn will have a special place in our hearts.

Can't thank them enough!
We couldn't have wished for a better venue for our festival themed wedding. The Yurt, Barn and outdoor space gave us so much room to fit in everything that we had planned. Our wedding co-ordinator was so helpful at every stage and really made us feel that we could trust them. They dealt with everything on the day so that we could just relax and enjoy everyone's company, which we were really grateful for. We've had so many compliments on the venue and food and can't thank them enough!

We had an incredible wedding at Bennetts, the venue is magical, there are no other words for it. Everyone loved it and we honestly can't thank the team enough for everything they did for us, especially Lucy. They all went above and beyond to make it without a doubt the best day of our lives.

The best day of our lives
Bennetts Willow Barn and the team here are nothing like anywhere else we have seen. They genuinely did make our wedding individual to us. They are so flexible and so helpful, even down to the last second, they could not have done more for us. We keep saying to each other that we want to do it all again! It truly was the best day of our lives and we really can only thank Bennetts Willow Barn for that!"

Describe the best wedding that happened at Bennetts Willow Barn?

The best wedding that we have ever had at our venue has to be my own! We built our yurt marquee for our own wedding back in 2016. We wanted to celebrate our wedding on our farm, and instead of hiring in a marquee, my husband built us a giant yurt to celebrate in. The day was absolutely fantastic and it worked so well as a venue that we decided to start a wedding business alongside our 5 glamping yurts on the farm. And we haven't looked back!

What is your No. 1 wedding planning tip for couples?

My number one wedding planning tip for couples is to be true to yourselves and focus on what you both want as a couple. You do not need to get caught up in traditions that don't especially matter to you, or try and please every guest who may be coming. This is YOUR day. So make it Your Best Day Ever in a way that reflects your personalities.

What’s your favourite personal touch you’ve seen at a wedding?

I love it when our couples decorate the yurt themselves, bringing in elements from their home and families to their day - perhaps flowers from a Grandmother's garden, place names they have made themselves and table names that reflect somethign fun about their lifetogether. Because of the bunting and fairy lights in our quirky wooden framed yurt, you can keep your styling fairly simple, and it will look amazing! And because our venue hire includes set up time the day before your wedding, you can enjoy this element of the wedding preparation together without time pressures.

Describe Bennetts Willow Barn in 5 adjectives

Fun, relaxed, rustic, quirky and beautiful.

Where’s the best photo spot at Bennetts Willow Barn?

Our living pergola in our garden, with all of its festoon lights glowing around it is probably the most popular spot for photographs, but I adore the golden hour light we get from across the fields out towards the Malvern Hills. You just cannot beat it!

Have you had any celebrity guest or wedding at Bennetts Willow Barn?

I don't think so. But I am not the best at recognising celebrities, so who knows!

What’s your favourite canapé?

I love our grazing pots. I think they are a fantastic way to give your guests a little bit of food after the ceremony.

What’s your favourite midnight treat?

Cold pizza leftover at the side of the dancefloor. Even cold, our stinebaked pizzas are absolutely delicious and a real crowd pleaser!

What is Bennetts Willow Barn most unique feature?

I can't pick just one feature - so much of our venue is genuinely unique. Our yurt was handbuilt by my husband, and so many of our team have been involved in upgrading the yurt canvas and elements in the garden over the years - so muhc of what we do is a real team effort. Our living pergola in the garden is not something I have seen anywhere else, and that is pretty special. But our barn's vintage wagon wheel chandeliers, designed by my husband, painted by me and lit up by our electrician are one of my favourite features in our barn - they really give a wow factor, especially in the evening alongside the lights from our couples' DJs and bands.

What part of your business are you most proud of?

All of it. My venue has been lovingly built and improved over the years by my husband and I, but my absolutely wonderful team bring it to life every weekend with our fabulous couples celebrating their love and starting the rest of the lives together. I love it!
