By far the nicest Venue we had seen!

Lots of people asked us why we chose Brookfield Barn for our wedding as we weren't exactly local and the answer was simply it was by far the nicest venue we had seen (and we did a lot of research)! It's nicely tucked away in the countryside but still close to main roads and towns (we had a family breakfast at Bills in Horsham the day after which was lovely).

You can choose to have your ceremony inside or outside, we opted for inside with the windows open and the views were stunning. There's also lots of space on the patio for garden games and a few of the family brought their golf clubs to play a couple of holes in the evening!

The whole team were amazing at setting up and ensuring everything ran on time. Even in the planning stages beforehand they made us feel totally at ease and gave us some helpful suggestions for things we were unsure of like seating plans etc.

They also provide an online wedding planning questionnaire to fill out as you go through the planning process, which I admit was a little daunting at first, but was a complete life saver closer to the day as I felt safe in the knowledge that everything had been thought of and meant I could just relax and enjoy the day!

Would certainly recommend to anyone, we had a fantastic day.

I loved our wedding!

We got married here in September 2023 and had the best wedding! The staff were all wonderful and ensured that our day ran as smoothly as possible so I wasn't stressed or worried at any point during the day! Great venue and wheelchair accessible with 2 accessible toilets on site and a accessible bedroom too!

Amazing from start to finish.

Brookfield Barn was the first & only place we viewed. We fell in love with it instantly. Throughout the 2 years of planning they were nothing but exemplary.
Our wedding planner Anouskja was amazing & key to everything falling into place. We couldn’t have done it. Jamie the manager too was lovely & made sure the actual day on the day ran seamlessly.
On the day nothing went wrong. It was the best day possible & all the planning and organising was worth it. The staff were meticulous throughout, happy and smiling from start to finish. Our guests still now say it was the best wedding food they have ever had, a comment I can second.

Don’t think twice about viewing this beautiful place. We 19379% recommend them.

Brookfield Wedding Venue: A Mix of Elegance and Disappointment

Our May 2023 wedding at Brookfield left us with a mix of emotions, as the venue showcased its elegance but fell short on crucial details that are essential for a flawless wedding experience.

The positives first: the venue itself is beautiful, and the wedding breakfast service was commendable. Guests were unaware of the behind-the-scenes chaos, and many appreciated the well-presented food service, highlighting the professionalism of the waitstaff.

However, the negative aspects overshadowed these positives. One of the glaring issues was the lack of strong leadership. The wedding coordinator, a key figure in ensuring smooth operations, was mysteriously absent during crucial moments, such as the morning preparations and throughout the day. This absence resulted in missed opportunities, including a crucial first look with the bride's father, as the coordinator failed to communicate effectively with him.

Attention to detail is crucial in wedding planning, and unfortunately, Brookfield fell short in this area. Despite our efforts to plan every small detail, execution was poor. From a smashed gin bottle used for decoration to a lack of care for personal property, including a failure to provide safe storage for the photographer's belongings, these oversights marred what should have been a seamless day.

Specifically, our chosen songs for the ceremony were forgotten due to an oversight in charging an iPad. There was no speaker and microphone for the registrar, despite emphasizing the importance of guests hearing the ceremony. Canapés weren't offered to all guests, and the distribution of drinks and canapés during the reception was haphazard, leaving some guests hungry and disappointed.

The wedding day timeline was disrupted, with dinner running late. This was attributed to an inaccurate estimate of the time it takes to serve and feed guests. Concerns raised during the tasting event were dismissed with a lackadaisical attitude, with little effort made to address or rectify the issue.

In summary, while Brookfield boasts a visually appealing venue and received positive feedback for the wedding breakfast service, the lack of attention to detail, poor coordination, and failure to address concerns leave us with a sense of disappointment. For the premium price paid for a wedding venue, flawless execution should be expected, and unfortunately, our experience at Brookfield fell short of this expectation.

Amazing venue and staff!!

I honestly couldn’t recommend Brookfield Barn anymore as a wedding venue. We were lucky to get married here on Saturday and it was the best day of our lives. The team were so kind and supportive in the lead up to the wedding, even managing to change our date to avoid restrictions! They kept me calm through all of the planning and on the day we didn’t have to worry about a thing. The venue is absolutely stunning, set on a beautiful location. We honestly couldn’t be happier. Thank you so much!! Xxx

Wouldn't recommend

We got married at Brookfield Barn in July and whilst the venue was beautiful and the catering amazing, we would never recommend Brookfield Barn. The manager was rude, response times were incredibly slow and we never got a straight answer about anything, they confirmed prices in writing to us then went back on this and charged us way more which is against trading standards, and staffing on the day was poor (catering and bar staff an exception to this). Their management company were reasonable when dealing with our complaints, but there have been lots of excuses made and no real admission of fault. By choosing this venue we caused ourselves a lot of unnecessary stress. In hindsight, we would have chosen elsewhere.

Beautiful venue

All of the team at Brookfield Barn have been amazing, especially on the wedding day all of the staff there were fantastic. Our wedding coordinator Annaelle was amazing in the lead up to the wedding (and on the day), helping with anything we needed and suggesting things for us. The venue is beautiful inside and out, especially with the new look to the bar area. All of our guests commented on what a lovely venue it is, we had the best day! Thank you again.

An amazing venue & team

We had our wedding at Brookfield Barn in July 2021. They were excellent, from when we booked them two years ago, to having to move the date amongst a pandemic, to then the finale in July.
They were responsive, meticulous and professional throughout. Their venue is gorgeous and secluded and gave us a beautiful external venue, with the very helpful back up of an equally stunning interior barn when it rained!
Thank you BB team, you are all stars!

Brookfield Barn wedding

We got married at Brookfield Barn on Friday 7th June this year and we had a lovely day. The venue is beautiful and it’s surroundings idyllic. Although the weather wasn’t great there was ample room inside and despite wanting an outside wedding we were not disappointed with an inside ceremony in the barn. The staff were all very friendly and super organised. The bar and lounge area was a great space for those who didn’t want to dance in the evening. All in all our day had a really relaxed feel which is just what we wanted. We’ve had nothing but compliments from our guests as to what a great venue it is and what a lovely day they had. It’s also great for little ones. Lots of outside space for them to run around. Thank you so much to mark, Becky, molly and Craig who worked so hard on the day. My only regret is that we can’t do it all over again!

Spotless!

Absolutely gorgeous venue, beautifully maintained.

Mark and the team happy to help every step of the way. We felt completely taken care of.

The rooms were all spotless as was the rest of the venue.

We were lucky enough to get married outside and the pictures we have seen so far are just perfect!

Thank you to the whole team!

Fell in love with it on day we visited!

We very recently got married here (29/09/18). Such a beautiful venue. The grounds and surroundings lend themself and because of that we kept our venue decor very plain and simple. We were very fortunate to have our ceremony outside and PA system meant that those at the back of the ceremony area could hear every word that was said.

The bar staff were fantastic and the prices are extremely reasonable. To save time and hassle we got Brookfield to sort all the drink for the day except the evening and our bill was very reasonable.

Our thanks go to Mark & Christie for maintaining such a beautiful venue and highly recommend it- this was the one and only venue that we looked at and fell in love with it on day we visited. All our guests had a wonderful day and were equally impressed with the venue. Felt quite sad that Mark was not able to share in our special day ( as we had done a lot of our planning with him) but Christie was amazing and had everything under control.

The Venue is so amazing!

I don't know what to say about Brookfield Barn that hasn't already been said but the venue is so amazing and the team are so dedicated that it deserves repeating! Everyone kept saying to us on our wedding day, 'where did you find this place?!' as people just couldn't believe that a venue could exist that had everything you could possibly need and be so beautiful. The venue is just stunning and me and my husband knew within minutes that we'd found the place we wanted to get married. If you want relaxed but still incredibly organised than Brookfield Barn is the place. And that's the other thing! We had such a stress free day as everyone on the team during the lead up and on the day itself was calm, efficient, organised and most of all - friendly. There wasn't a thing we worried about and it all went perfectly (and for a control freak like me, that's just what I needed)!
