Kind words from our couples

Over the Moon!

Sending Barnston Lodge Weddings the biggest thank you we are capable of!! Barnston Lodge was the most perfect venue, and Jane – you were more helpful and accommodating than we could have hoped for from a reception venue. All our guests have told us how wonderful your gardens were, and the photographer has been so complimentary about you that I think he would like to be your go-to photographer. We cannot tell you how over the moon we are with the way everything turned out, and we really are so pleased we found you!

A very big Greek wedding thank you!

I just wanted to say a very big Thank You to you and your husband for Stephan and Louise’s wedding. They chose well in their quest to find the right place. They could not have found a more perfect venue. Everything went so smoothly. It was such a happy day and it was made possible by your attention to detail even down to the Cypriot flag, which made us feel very welcome. This was my first marquee wedding and I didn’t know what to expect, it was picture perfect. I wouldn’t have wanted it to be anywhere else. Thank you for making their wedding day so special.

It was as if we were planning a family event at home.

Imogen and I are both so grateful for the wisdom, experience and insights you shared with us along the way, and for your very relaxed, no-nonsense approach to helping us plan our wedding and flexibility in letting us design exactly the style of event that we wanted to create. The level of care and interest you showed throughout made us feel as though we were both in the hands of complete professionals but also as if we were family planning an event at home. Barnston Lodge will always have a special place in our hearts – it was the perfect venue for us and we feel very fortunate to have had the opportunity to celebrate our wedding at your beautiful home.

The perfect picnic

We all had the most wonderful picnic and afternoon in the gardens of Barnston Lodge. It is one of the nicest and memorable afternoons I have had in a very, very long time.

Thank you Jane for your hospitality and kindness.

Guidance through Covid-19

Jane was so accommodating for a very long time as our wedding date moved from pillar to post across the Covid timeline. She was so reassuring and calming with all her wedding wisdom, help and guidance.

It was such a happy day and Barnston Lodge looked amazing. You can’t get a more beautiful setting and Jane seriously worked extremely hard to get it looking so fabulous.

Jenny and Julian

Our perfect wedding day

We are so glad we chose Barnston Lodge Weddings to host our wedding reception. The stunning house, lawns and beautiful lake were just perfect, and our photographs are fantastic! We would have no hesitation to recommend Barnston Lodge Weddings as a venue. I’m sure some of our single friends will be calling you in the future!
