Bridle & Groom Weddings Ltd is a rural wedding venue situated in Cornwall, England. Located in the heart of the Cornish countryside, the nine-acre Blackwater Farm is the perfect setting for festival-style farmland wedding events. Couples and their guests will fall in love with the roaming farm animals, the peaceful and picturesque grounds, and the rustic marquee. Owners Lisa and Philip Evans are passionate about sustainability and the environment and have created a unique destination that supports local produce and eco-friendly practices. Their mission is to provide a relaxed, rustic, yet refined setting in which to-be-weds can make lifelong memories alongside the people they love.

Facilities and Capacity

Bridle & Groom Weddings Ltd presents Blackwater Farm for idyllic wedding ceremonies, high teas, and evening receptions. Whether you envisage an intimate gathering of 50 people or a soirée for 150, there is ample choice to curate your day, your way. Ceremonies are held in the Garden Wedding Room, with ambient lighting, red carpet treatment, and a stage provided by the on-site team. Lisa and Philip are also happy to organise flowers that match your colour scheme and they use fresh foliage from the farm for an added wild and whimsical aesthetic. Guests and newlyweds can take photos around the grounds, with friendly farm animals in the background. Receptions are held in a cotton canvas marquee, which comes complete with festoon lighting, seating, chairs, chair covers, and bows. Glamping accommodation is available at this destination and newlyweds can enjoy the bell tent honeymoon suite during their stay.

Catering

Hog roasts go hand in hand with rustic outdoor weddings and boho-chic parties at this Liskeard farm. Cornish farm fayre food or a Hog roast is included in most packages, with all products being locally sourced in Cornwall. A snapshot of other delicious dishes offered includes Blackwater cranberry and sausage rolls, Cornish pasties and brie, bacon and fig jam tartlets. Should you require vegan or vegetarian options, the chefs would be happy to accommodate your requests. Sumptuous desserts such as lemon meringue pie, shortbreads, and rich, chocolate brownies are guaranteed crowd-pleasers. The culinary team also specialises in wedding cakes such as fruit cake with fondant icing, Victoria sponge cakes, or contemporary cheese towers which are included in the packages.

My dream wedding made a reality

We got married at Bridle & Groom in August, and I cannot put into words how incredible Lisa, Phil and their team are. They were so helpful every step of the way, no detail was missed. They helped guide us with decisions we were struggling on, and helped bring our personalities to our wedding to make it unique to us. They made our wedding so fun, unique and perfect for us. She even went above and beyond to help incorporate some incredibly sentimental and emotional belongings in a beautiful way. I will recommend them to anyone and everyone who needs a venue! I still feel the flutters when I think of how perfect our wedding was. Thank you both x

We had our dream wedding here at Blackwater Farm! The manager, Lisa, and her team went above and beyond to help us achieve an amazing day at very short notice. The venue is extremely rustic and picturesque, with a side helping of adorable farm animals - great for your photos! We couldn't be happier and wholeheartedly recommend Blackwater Farm for your special day!!

Lisa and Phik went the extra mile to make our day Perfect and they had every little detail Covered. But best not Forget the Chef Helen cooked up a storm for our wedding breakfast and they even made our Cake and Bouquets. We would highly recommend this beautiful venue to anyone wanting a country wedding.
