Loved by couples in The Arboretum
With love and excitement, The BarnYard FamilyRated 4.4 from over 970 Google reviewsA huge thank you to Kirstie and T for making our wedding day so special. Having viewed many venues, we chose The BarnYard for its wonderful atmosphere and charm, and knew we had found the perfect place. My makeup artist said the lighting in the Blossom dressing room was the best she has ever worked with, and it was reassuring that the Apple Barn could be used if the weather turned. Truly a hidden gem we cannot recommend highly enough.
We had our wedding on the hottest day ever recorded for a May bank holiday. From our first visit, to booking, to the big day and afterwards, I have not got a single complaint. They were always on hand and no question was ever too much. All our guests commented on the staff, the beautiful setting and the food especially. We had literally the perfect day.
We had our wedding at the BarnYard in September and it was the most magical day, the perfect venue and setting for what we were after. We had so many compliments from guests on the venue being stunning, beautiful Kent countryside, gorgeous outside ceremony area and idyllic orchards.
Thank you all so much for turning our dream wedding into reality. Our guests still rave about how incredible the day was and how breathtaking your venue is. We wouldn't change a single thing about it. Everything was beyond perfect, and we are forever grateful.
The service on the day was absolutely impeccable. The staff truly went above and beyond to help us achieve our dream, from extensive planning to helping me surprise my groom, helping me walk in my dress, and coordinating between the live pianist and our music. I truly wish we could do the whole thing again.
The venue was what I had in my head, my dreams came true. Best day, best team, best venue. We had so many guests tell us it was the best wedding they had ever been to.
