We had the time of our lives at this stunning venue.

Perfect day


We couldn’t have asked for a better experience at Oaks Farm. From the very beginning, Katie and John were incredibly helpful—always quick to communicate and happy to answer our many questions. Their support in the lead-up to the day made the planning process so much easier, and they were generous with their time whenever we needed to meet.

On the wedding day itself, John was absolutely amazing. He made sure everything ran smoothly, especially with our outdoor ceremony, keeping everything on track and helping us feel relaxed throughout. Katie even checked in with us the next day to make sure everything had gone well and that we enjoyed our night in the lovely cottage on site.

The venue looked stunning in the spring sunshine—the gardens were especially beautiful and made for such a perfect backdrop. So many of our guests commented on how gorgeous the setting was. If we could do it all over again, we would in a heartbeat. It truly was the perfect day.

Perfect venue!

We had our wedding at Oaks Farm and truly couldn’t have asked for a more perfect venue. From the moment we first visited, we knew it was the one — the setting is so beautiful and intimate, with a charm that made the day feel incredibly special and personal.

The gardens were in full bloom, offering the most stunning backdrop for our photos, and the barn was warm, welcoming, and just the right size for a relaxed and joyful celebration. The staff at Oaks Farm were amazing — calm, professional, and genuinely caring. They made everything run so smoothly behind the scenes, allowing us to just enjoy every moment with our guests.

So many of our family and friends commented on how beautiful the venue was and how well looked after they felt. We are so grateful to Oaks Farm for helping us create the wedding day of our dreams — it was perfect from start to finish.

The perfect day at Oaks Farm

The perfect venue for the perfect day! Oaks Farm is a hidden gem! Absolutely stunning venue with incredible staff. The whole day was so well managed by Katie and John, and on the lead up they couldn't have been more helpful. They went above and beyond to ensure we had the best day. We are so happy we chose Oaks Farm to celebrate our wedding and would highly recommend to anyone looking for a relaxed and initiate event.

A stunning gem of a venue

We were so pleased with our decision to host our wedding at this wonderful venue. John and Katie were so friendly and helpful from the beginning and we really valued the ease of communication with them. On the day, the grounds of the venue are just immaculate and really made for some beautiful moments and pictures. We held our wedding dinner in the barn and it was just the most intimate setting for our guests.

My husband and I cannot thank Kate and John enough for their incredible support and flexibility throughout our wedding planning. Their professionalism made the entire process seamless, and I’m especially grateful to Kate for her invaluable guidance. The venue itself is stunning and offers great value for money. The food was amazing, and our guests couldn’t stop praising how beautiful everything was. Everyone agreed it’s a hidden gem in Croydon! It was also a bonus that our hairdresser, makeup artist, photographer, and DJ were all familiar with the venue, which contributed to a smooth and timely flow for the entire day.

Beautiful intimate wedding venue

Oaks Farm is a beautiful wedding venue, the grounds are pristine and well looked after. All of our guests and suppliers were in awe of how lovely the venue looked. The owners John and Katie were warm and approachable and always emailed us back promptly and were very helpful at answering our questions no matter how small. We were able to visit the venue as many times as we liked with family and suppliers to show them around and again John and Katie were never too far if we needed to speak to them. The venue has plenty of places to take beautiful photos and the Barn had an intimate and cosy feel for our wedding breakfast with our guests. We feel very lucky to have been able to book our special day at Oaks Farm Wedding venue and wouldn't hesitate to recommend it to anyone else for any function.

Perfect location for a perfect day

We got married in September at Oaks Farm, from the moment we booked we knew we had the chosen the right location and people to host our wedding.
The detail in which your day was planned and the professional yet friendly atmosphere from the whole team really made us happy.
It rained the whole day which meant we didn’t get the outdoor ceremony we had hoped for but we had help keeping everyone dry for photos and getting to the chapel it didn’t even matter.
I’d highly recommend Oaks Farm and I wish I could do the whole day again!

Wedding on 30th August 2024

We had our wedding here a few weeks ago and we had such an amazing experience thanks to John and Katie. They have been incredibly organised and communicative all the way from when we first got in touch up to the end of the wedding day. John was with us on the day and kept the day running smoothly. The venue itself is perfect and picturesque especially the outdoor settings where the gardens are very well taken care of.

We are so grateful to the everyone at Oaks Farm for making our day perfect!

Beautiful Venue

Oaks Farm have been incredible from start to finish. From the moment we knew this was the venue for us until the day after the wedding itself they have been so well organised and professional every step of the way. Needless to say we couldnt have had the day we had without them. This is such a gorgeous venue in the heart of Croydon with great connections to London and beyond. John was there the whole time making sure everything ran so smoothly on the day. There were moments where the stress of planning would get to us but John and Katie had such a calming effect on us that it really helped reassure and give us peace of mind that all was in hand and the day went brilliantly. They were also incredibly flexible and dealt with changes so well that we simply could not have asked for a better wedding venue or team and it was so lovely to share such a beautiful day with our friends and family all of whom were so impressed by the beautiful surrounding scenery and the decor and detail of this lovely venue. Equipped to have quite a decent sized wedding but also felt it could pull off a more intimate wedding which is something we were going for despite the guest list of 80+. What also helped was the recomended suppliers they use (caterers, DJ, photobooth etc.) are all so professional and know the venue so well that everything just ran so smoothly and like clockwork it all fell in to place. In fact there were times even at the end of the night where our guests needed some help and this was something that was beyond the call of duty for the team at the venue but they were more than happy to help. We found this to be incredible and really show how much they would go the extra mile to help make the day what it was. We can't thank Oaks Farm enough for eveything and would joke that we wish we could get married again just so we could get to use them once more! We are eternally grateful to them for helping make this day one we will take with us forever.

Oaks Farm July wedding

We were not looking forward to the viewings of wedding venues - but we only viewed Oaks Farm and it was perfect for what wanted.
Katie and John were great from the first time we met to the last time we saw them the day after the wedding.
We used the catering provided (10 flavours) who were great, Jodie was great and very helpful and understanding with last minute changes to the menu.
We used the barn for our service and then the rest of the venue for the reception, sit down meal and party.

We had a little cottage we stayed in the night of the wedding and the groom was able to get changed there beforehand also.


We would highly recommend Oaks Farm to anyone looking for a venue that has everything in one place.

Only cons we had was the noise restriction for the DJ and the end time of the event was 11pm on the dot.
Other than that we had an amazing time.

Perfect Venue Perfect Day

We spent a whole weekend visiting different venues back to back and none felt right for us. We then got recommended Oaks Farm from a caterer who works closely with Oaks Farm so we decided to check it out and as soon as we saw it we knew this was the place for us.
From beginning to end it was the most amazing & smooth sailing experience which is what you need when planning a wedding.
Katie and John were great and communication was 10/10 I could not fault them at all. They we're great at allowing us to come in (with notice) during the lead up to have a look around again and finalise little bits and pieces.
If you do book this venue we would honestly also recommend using their recommended supplier "For Ya Party" who done an exceptional job with the decor.
We honestly could not have asked for a better experience with Oaks Farm.
On the day we felt everything went to plan and our guests LOVEDDDDD the venue it was just the perfect day and to end what was a great day we loved that we could stay on site in the cottage.
Thank you Oaks Farm for making our day a truly special one to remember.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to make your big decisions easier.
