Best day of our lives!
I don’t even know where to begin with summing up the most amazing day of our lives, our wedding at The River Barn on 30.03.2024. From start to finish, everything was perfect. We were very well looked after by Torr and Mel who didn’t mind me coming in for a sneaky peek of the room whilst they were setting up and any requests we had throughout the day. Torr in particular was fantastic and so approachable, nothing was too much of an issue, even when it came to helping me hook the bustle of my dress just as her shift came to an end (thank you again!). We were so lucky to have sunshine on our wedding day which made the venue feel even more spectacular with all the light coming in and being able to use the outdoor area. The attention to detail in the venue makes it so easy and fuss free to style with all of the guests commenting how beautiful The River Barn was. We first came to see The River Barn when the renovations had just begun so we had to trust the artist impressions when booking which could have been a huge gamble but we are so so glad we chose to have our special day at River Barn! Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for all that you did from the wedding meetings, the help on the day, moving melted donuts, the bar staff happily making me a limoncello spritz and supplying the sick bucket at the end of the night! We made memories to last a lifetime and we couldn’t have done it without you! Lots of love, Hannah and Kieron, Mr and Mrs Wraith! xxx

Simply the best"
I do not know where to begin but I honestly can not thank the staff enough for everything they did to ensure that my wedding was perfect. From the beginning the staff were so extremely helpful in ensuring that this venue was the right venue for our wedding. They were able to answer any questions or worries we had. Throughout the process we had multiple meetings with the venue and welcomed to open days in which they sat down and clearly went through any details and additional questions we had and any they may have. They were extremely responsive whenever i emailed or phoned them. On the day they made sure that my vision came to life, they ensured that everything went smoothly and did everything they could to make sure the day was exactly what we wanted. I can not thank all the staff at the River Barn for everything they have done for me and my husband. The venue its self it just perfect, with the modern barn look and the manor it just is beautiful along with their perfect gardens. I am extremely happy with my experience with the River Barn.

What an amazing day and night we had
What an amazing day and night we had. The venue is absolutely stunning and all the staff I had contact with since booking the wedding have been extremely helpful throughout the whole process and easily contactable if you needed to speak to anyone. On the actual day Natalie and Eleanor kept coming over to the manor barn to see how I was and showed me pictures of the set up which I thought was really nice of them to do. I would highly recommend this venue.

Wow what a venue! My husband and I recently had the pleasure of celebrating our union at The River Barn. From the moment we went to enquire to our big day the staff were absolutely amazing. The attention to detail was second to none and they were so attentive ensuring our day went smoothly and stress free. I cannot thank them enough for making our day magical and perfect! Thanks to you I had the day I’d always dreamed off xx
