About

Bamboo Sky is a beautifully different countryside wedding venue in the Cambridgeshire village of Bourn. Created by owner Shaina and named after her twin daughters, it is a heartfelt, independent venue where every wedding is genuinely personal.

Hidden behind our award-winning Thai restaurant, you’ll discover a secluded country garden beneath a magnificent sweeping willow tree, seven private dining domes, a wild meadow, botanical lounge bar and heated terrace.

From intimate gatherings to exclusive celebrations, Bamboo Sky offers a relaxed wedding day shaped around you. Think a celebrant-led blessing beneath the willow, cocktails in the garden, generous Thai feasting around long tables in the meadow and dancing beneath the stars.

By day, the venue feels green, relaxed and wonderfully secluded. As dusk falls, the willow, garden and domes come alive with colour, fairy lights and festoons, creating a magical atmosphere unlike anywhere else.

Come for the setting. Stay for the feeling. Escape the ordinary.

Facilities and Capacity

Most couples choose to hold a symbolic or celebrant-led ceremony beneath the willow, followed by drinks and canapés in the garden. Wedding feasts can be arranged around relaxed sharing tables beneath the tree or with a more curated table plan in the garden, domes or wild meadow.

Smaller weddings can enjoy private or part-exclusive use of the venue, while larger celebrations can make Bamboo Sky entirely their own. We can accommodate around 80 guests for a seated wedding feast, with exclusive celebrations for up to 120 guests depending on the plans for your day.

Our new meadow canopy, available from late spring 2027, provides a beautiful shaded and showerproof setting for ceremonies and dining while retaining the feeling of an outdoor wedding.

Bamboo Sky is magical in every season. Summer brings celebrations beneath the willow and dining in the meadow, while autumn and winter offer open fires, a cosy restaurant, fairy-lit gardens and heated domes twinkling beneath the night sky.

Whatever the weather, there is a beautiful Plan B. Up to 50 guests can dine across our seven private domes, while the restaurant provides an atmospheric indoor setting for larger seated celebrations.

Please note that Bamboo Sky is not licensed for legal marriage ceremonies. Couples can complete the legal formalities separately before holding a personal symbolic or celebrant-led ceremony with us.

Food and Drink

Food is at the heart of every Bamboo Sky wedding. From canapés, colourful bowls and relaxed buffets to a seated wedding breakfast, we create generous Thai menus around your tastes and the style of your day.

Drinks packages can include fizz, wines, beers, cocktails and mocktails, with a fully stocked bar throughout your celebration.

Personal Planning and Support

With over 200 weddings having been held at her venue, Shaina still personally meets every couple and helps plan the timings, layout, food, drinks, styling and flow of the day. We can also recommend trusted local celebrants, entertainers, photographers, florists and stylists, with no obligation to use them.

On the day, our team prepares the venue, so you can arrive and enjoy your celebration without worrying about setting everything up.

Wedding Prices

Intimate Bamboo Sky weddings start from approximately £4,000, with larger exclusive celebrations typically ranging from £10,000 - £15,000 depending on guest numbers and your choices.

  • Symbolic or celebrant-led ceremony beneath the willow: £500

  • Venue hire and planning time: £1,500 - £4,000

The most wonderful garden for celebration 🎉

Where do I even begin?!

We genuinely couldn’t have wished for a more beautiful place to celebrate our wedding. Bamboo Sky is an absolute hidden gem, and everything about our experience was simply wonderful.

We wanted something intimate, relaxed and a little different from a traditional wedding reception. Somewhere we could celebrate surrounded by our favourite people, beautiful scenery and a lovely atmosphere. Bamboo Sky gave us exactly that, and so much more.

The garden is absolutely stunning, and the magnificent willow tree made the most beautiful backdrop for our special day. As the evening went on and the lights came on, the whole place felt magical.

But what truly made our experience exceptional was the people behind it.

The owner was absolutely incredible! From helping us with the preparations to making sure everything came together beautifully, she went above and beyond. Nothing ever felt like too much trouble, and her kindness, patience and genuine willingness to help meant more to us than I can put into words.

The staff were equally wonderful. Everyone was so friendly, welcoming and attentive, and they helped create exactly the relaxed, happy atmosphere we had hoped for. The food was fantastic, the setting was breathtaking, and the whole experience was worth every penny.

There is something incredibly special about finding a venue where you don’t feel like just another booking, but where people genuinely care about making your celebration memorable. That’s exactly how Bamboo Sky made us feel.

We left with the happiest hearts and memories we’ll treasure for the rest of our lives.

I honestly cannot recommend Bamboo Sky highly enough, whether you’re planning an intimate wedding, a family gathering or any other special celebration.

And that beautiful willow tree? It will forever be our willow tree. ❤️

Thank you, from the bottom of our hearts, for being part of one of the happiest days of our lives!

The most magical wedding venue with the most amazing supportive team!

We got married at the Willow Tree in 2019 and I couldn’t recommend it enough. Shaina and the team were amazing from start to finish, helping us with choosing food and decorating in the day. The whole day was perfect and ran smoothly thanks to the whole team. And getting married under the willow tree was unforgettable!

Teepee wedding

Everything went to my expectation. The teepee was dressed beautifully. Shaina was very attentive to making sure the wedding breakfast went smoothly. The each course of food was very tasty and looked beautiful on the plate. Service was attentive and kept the party relaxed. Everyone said what a beautiful venue venue and wedding party it was.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to make your big decisions easier.
