BOTB were everything you could want in a venue!!
Barn on the Bay were everything you could ever want from a venue and more. With a wealth of experience, a stunning venue, beautifully cooked food and a genuine interest from every staff member in your relationship, guests and the wedding day itself I'd give them 7 stars if it was an option. We felt supported right from the moment we stepped in the venue on the open day. They have systems & relationships with vendors in place that make everything seamless. I cannot recommend this venue enough!!

Amazing venue! Amazing Staff!
We can’t recommend The Barn on the Bay enough. The whole team are amazing! Nicola and Sophie made the whole planning process so easy, nothing was ever a bother and they were great at giving ideas too. Phil and Kerry were also there on the day, all working so hard making sure the day ran so smoothly. They plan everything down to a t beforehand, so they never once had to ask me about anything, meaning i never felt stressed about anything at the venue. I would highly recommend their styling package, they have so many beautiful items you can choose from. We wanted a more relaxed wedding and they certainly made that happen. All our guests said it was the best venue they have been too. It’s so beautiful inside and out. Especially at night time with all the fairy lights and fire pits. Food was also amazing and again they were very accommodating for what we wanted. We can’t thank them enough for the most magical day!

The best day of our lives!!
We got married in June this year and wish we could just go back and do it over and over again. It couldn't have been anymore perfect! Nicola, Sophie, Alison & Team couldn't have been anymore helpful from the day we first visited to the very end. Our wedding took place on the dunes ceremony site overlooking Druridge Bay it was just amazing. The sun was shining all day long and many of our guests commented on our wedding being the best they had ever been to. 100% recommend to any couples still searching for a venue.

Frequently Asked Questions
(10)

Describe the best wedding that happened at The Barn on The Bay?

Oh, so many to mention! Some couples really stay in your thoughts, Rachel & Kyle are one of those couples. Kyle brought Rachel to stay on the farm before we even did weddings for their first camping date. When they got engaged they chose us as the obvious choice for their wedding. They had a boho festival weekend and personalised the venue so much. They still come to visit, as do many of our other couples, and have a drink in our bar.

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

Don't be scared of having an outdoor wedding in the UK, our beaches are some of the best in the world here in Northumberland and on a sunny day you could think you're anywhere in the world! As long as you have an adequate rain plan and a flexible venue team it'll be worth it.

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

We love it when couples get their pets involved! Your dog should be part of your ceremony, but we do expect to see them in a cute outfit!! If you don't have a dog you can borrow one of our alpacas, they love a good wedding.
