The best venue & team!

We knew from day one that Kimbridge would be the perfect venue for us and we feel so lucky to have chosen such a wonderful venue.

During the planning the team were patient, helpful, supportive & went above and beyond to create our perfect wedding day!

Onto the day itself and we can’t even explain how incredible the whole team were - the food was AMAZING, the staff behind the bar were rushed off their feet (but our guests never had to wait long) and everything went perfectly.

We have had so many compliments from our guests about the venue & the staff and words aren’t enough to justify how amazing you all are!

Thank you from the bottom of our hearts 🥰 xxx

Wonderful venue & excellent staff

This was the perfect place for our wedding. We wanted a countryside/barn wedding and this set right by the river Test was perfect. From beginning to end, the staff were excellent. They took a lot of the stress out of planning the day, helped to keep us on track (we had less than 6 months to plan the wedding) and gave lots of helpful advice along the way. On the day they were very professional in coordinating all of the events and made sure we were looked after. The venue was stunning and set up exactly as we had wanted/imagined. Drinks appeared for us immediately after the ceremony - and my G&T never seemed to empty! A plates of canapes was set aside for us to ensure we didn't miss out while we were getting our photos. When there was a near disaster with a red wine spillage - the staff appeared in seconds to clean up and deal with any potential stains. There was even some assistance provided with bustling my dress in the evening ahead of the first dance.

The barn itself is a lovely space for the ceremony and wedding breakfast and disco/first dance. The food was yummy - everyone really enjoyed the fire pit menu. All dietaries were catered for (vegetarian, vegan, halal, gluten free, pescatarian etc). We loved using the boot room as a place to sit and chat or play Jenga/Connect 4. Everyone had lots of fun at the casino tables that were set up in there. It was so lovely in the evening to sit outside in the courtyard with drinks by the fire pits. The day just disappeared so quickly. We had such a memorable day that we will never forget. I cant thank the staff enough for helping to make this happen.

Fantastic venue!

We recently got married at Kimbridge Barn in March 2024, and without hesitation, we would absolutely recommend this venue to any couples considering it for their special day.

From the very beginning, the team at Kimbridge were incredibly friendly and helpful. Communication was seamless, and any queries or concerns we had were met with prompt and reassuring responses. This was also the case on the day itself.

On the day of our wedding Kimbridge Barn looked beautiful, and we were very grateful for the team’s assistance in setting up the ceremony decorations, ensuring everything was just as we had envisioned. It is also worth mentioning that the layout of Kimbridge Barn is ideal for the unpredictable English weather. In addition to the barn, you also have access to the Boot Room as well as the lovely courtyard which is partially covered and comes with the option of lighting their fire pits. This meant our guests could still enjoy the outside area even when it rained and the temperature dropped.

One of the highlights of our wedding was undoubtedly the food. Several of our guests have since commented that the food was the best they have ever had at a wedding! We would also like to add that we found Kimbridge Barn to be excellent value for the quality of food provided.

In conclusion, our experience at Kimbridge Barn was fantastic. A big thank you to the Kimdbridge team!

Perfection

Wow what can we say, the team at Kimbridge were phenomenal from start to finish. All our guests commented not only on the beautiful venue but how incredibly relaxed it all felt, the team at Kimbridge managed the whole wedding effortlessly and somehow managed to avoid the feeling of being herded from one location to another. The food was exceptional and everyone loved every single minute, I wish we could do it all over again and not change a single thing!

Faultless, bespoke and heart felt.

So much to say about our experience with Kimbridge for our wedding. The personable, attentive, genuine experience we had made every part of our journey from start to finish amazing. The first meeting and only by chance made the difference and it came with such an emotive meaning behind choosing the venue. Needless to say Kimbridge were not aware of this at the time yet Kris and the team went above and beyond to make our day feel like the only day that mattered to them.
Every detail no matter how big or small was taken care of and no request was too much. My husband and I had the most amazing day one that will stay with us forever and we have everyone at Kimbridge to that for that. Thank you so very very much for being there from before during and after. You were outstanding!!

The best day!

After getting married during COVID it was so lovely to be able to finally celebrate our day and in the most beautiful setting. Everything was perfect! The barn looked beautiful and everyone was so helpful to make it all run smoothly. The food was incredible and everyone came away saying how delicious it was. So happy we chose to celebrate at Kimbridge!

Our Wedding at Kimbridge 19.08.2022

We were due to get married at Kimbridge in June 2023 but due to unforeseen family circumstances we bought our wedding forward to August 2022. Kimbridge could not have been more accommodating and made the whole planning process a breeze! The barn is so beautiful and requires very little decorating due to its natural features. The staff are incredibly kind and welcoming and went above and beyond making sure every aspect of the day was in hand. The food was incredible and all our guests were amazed by the professional service they received. The setting is beautiful and perfect for photos. We cannot thank everyone at Kimbridge enough for being so wonderful and accommodating. If you’re getting married and need a venue in Hampshire this has to be the one!!

Absolutely brilliant!

The team at Kimbridge barn really made this whole process as easy as organising a wedding can be. It was special to have a truly tailored reception from choosing the menu, seating arrangements and plans for the day. KB understood our goals, they offered advice where we needed it or listened attentively as we decided on what we wanted. Nothing was too small an ask and this was replicated on the actual day. You were great with our guests, small touches like making sure there were gluten free canapes and that the kids were happy with their meal was just that extra little attention to detail that made it perfect. You kept all the inner workings hidden from us to allow us to fully enjoy our day.
The food was also absolutely delicious.

I cannot recommend Kimbridge Barn enough to any couples that want something a bit different with a team that guide you through the journey so seamlessly.

For note, we had
64 guests, 3 children
The firepit menu (but we changed some of the dishes for our liking)
Desert was a fabulous ice cream trike
We had a short engagement so the process in total took 6 months and at no point did we feel rushed by Kimbridge barn.

Perfect wedding

We simply had the perfect wedding at Kimbridge Barn. The venue offered everything we wanted. Kris and the team were so attentive, helpful and friendly throughout the wedding planning and nothing was too much trouble. Prosecco, kegs of beer and cider was served when our guests arrived. We asked for our wedding cake made of cheese and a relaxed Fire Pit Feast for our wedding breakfast, Kris made it happen. Our guests were very impressed with the venue and how delicious the food was on the day. Massive thank to all the team. Cannot recommend this venue enough. Sam and I look forward to visiting soon with friends and family for coffee and cake!

Simply wonderful - I didn't have to worry about a thing.

Kimbridge Barn is a lovely place, and I recommend it wholeheartedly. It has flexible event space, classy decor and very high quality food and drink, but it is Kris and his team who really take it to the next level as a wedding venue. Nothing was too much trouble in the run up and the recommended suppliers for flowers and decorations were excellent, the chef was brilliant with our off-the-wall menu, all the waiting staff were cheerful and helpful on the day (and there were plenty of them), and I was safe in the knowledge that my wedding reception was in the hands of one of the most capable event managers I have ever worked with. I can't recommend them enough.

Everything we wanted!

We first booked our wedding for October 2020 but were delayed due to Covid. We had chosen Kimbridge as it was a place we like to go for breakfast and is a stunning venue. Kris and the team were supportive through all the delays and when the day finally came couldn’t have been more brilliant! The food was incredible (afternoon tea) and our guests raved about the venison scotch eggs for weeks! When our DJ didn’t turn up Kris and our amazing photographer Alisa lept into action and saved the day turning the boot room into a make shift dance floor where we danced the night away! The staff were so professional and genuinely seemed to care. Our photographs are beautiful and the venue was the perfect size for our 80+ guests! There is nothing I would change and can’t recommend Kimbridge enough! It is a little known venue and I hope that it grows in popularity and gets the recognition it deserves as an excellent and beautiful venue run by genuinely caring people who provide a truly high-quality experience!

Beautiful Venue

We had our wedding reception at Kimbridge Barn back in March and it was absolutely perfect! Everyone was incredible throughout the whole process - they were super attentive and helpful, made sure we had everything we needed, and stayed in contact consistently. I asked so many little questions in the lead up to the big day and they answered very quickly every time which really helped to put my mind at ease. Helen and Cassie were particularly great during the planning process, and Fliss was amazing on the day, especially when I was feeling under the weather when we arrived.
Thank you to everyone that was involved, you were all amazing! ⭐️

What a Fantastic Venue!

Kimbridge as a venue and the team were outstanding. The whole process end to end was highly professional. On the day the barn was completely beautiful. The supplier recommendations you get from Kimbridge are definitely a good idea. I also would say the food for the wedding breakfast and evening food was also remarked upon on the day.

For any couples looking to get married many wedding venues don't have a good wet weather plan - Kimbridge is highly flexible in that regard and this was very very useful especially in the evening. Getting married in April is always risky!
