We feel blessed to have had Cissbury Barns as our wedding venue and Michelle and staff on the day. Thank you so much xWow, what can we say! Quite simply we fell in love Venue Service By Laura and Rod Matheson, on 18 Sep 2019Date of Wedding - 30 Aug 2019 Wow, what can we say! We got married at Cissbury on 30th August. Quite simply we fell in love with the place during our first visit and knew Cissbury would be the venue for our special day. Helen and Michelle were so helpful from the initial booking, and ensured everything went smoothly, quietly working in the background on the day. Cissbury is in such a beautiful setting with amazing views across the South Downs - perfect for photos galore! The rustic character of the barns and the bar just added real charm to our day and the whole place offered a great mix of indoor and outdoor spaces for guests to quench their thirst! We had two classic cars (Austin Healey, Jaguar MKI) which were perfect against the backdrop of the barns. We looked at many venues and nothing came close - attention to detail, support and coordination of Helen and Michelle, it was a faultless day and we recommend you go and see the place for yourself.What an incredible venue Venue Service By Joy and James Woods, on 18 Sep 2019Date of Wedding - 23 Aug 2019 What an incredible venue in a hidden away location - you really feel like you’re in your own little wedding bubble! Helen and Michelle were fantastic from start to finish to ensure everything went off without a hitch! We absolutely fell in love with the place as did all our guests. Every aspect of Cissbury Barns is unique and makes for a truly special and perfect day!! We couldn’t ask for anything more! Thank you so much for everythingThe Best Day Ever Venue Service By Sean and Angela Moss, on 13 Sep 2019Date of Wedding - 15 Aug 2019 We had our wedding at Cissbury Barns in August 2019 and can't recommend it enough. It's a beautiful venue, with loads of nice spots for photos, enough outside spaces for guests to spread out whilst still feeling in the same place. Everything in the Barns is beautiful, and it was the perfect space for our wedding. Not only that, the team at Cissbury were brilliant right from the start, taking us through all the questions we asked, giving us useful paperwork to plan our day, and providing several chances to visit the venue on weekends to see it dressed up and ask questions. We had the best day ever - if you're looking for a Barn for your wedding, this would be a great choice!WOW. What a Wedding....
