Old Luxters Barn Reviews (51) Write a review The perfect day Venue Service By Alex and Anwen, on 31 Aug 2019Date of Wedding - 23 Jun 2019 The venue is absolutely stunning and as soon as we saw it we knew it’s was the place for us. All the winery and brewery produce is delicious and added a really nice touch to our wedding. Charlie, our coordinator couldn’t have been more helpful, giving us ideas for decorations and always being on hand to help with all our questions. On the day the staff were impeccable. All the guests commented how friendly and accommodating they were. The food was delicious. We would 100% recommendOur perfect day! Venue Service By Sophie & Rory Gamble, on 09 Jul 2019Date of Wedding - 31 May 2019 Where do I start! I honestly cannot recommend old luxters barn enough, from start to finish everything was just perfect! As soon as we went to view this venue after seeing many others we instantly fell in love with it, from the beautiful cobbled courtyard to the stunning barn it was everything we had imagined having for our big day. Once we had booked our day here we were assigned a wedding coordinator, Lucie, and she was honestly amazing the whole way through. If ever I had a worry or question about anything all it took was an email and she was straight back with the answer or a solution meaning that when it came to the day itself we were both incredibly relaxed and ready to enjoy every minute, and that we did! The day was just perfect and everything we had imagined and more. The staff are super friendly, smiley and there to help with anything. The food was incredible from the tasty canapés to the lovely 2 course meal we chose along with added extras like the gin bar we had in the evening and the pimp my prosecco station during the drinks reception, nothing was too much to ask! We had so much wonderful feedback from guest saying how they wanted to do it all over again as they had enjoyed the day so much! Anyone thinking of getting married here should 100% consider it as we couldn’t have asked for more for our special day!The most incredible day - thanks to the venue! Venue Service By Samantha Lewis-Williams, on 29 Aug 2019Date of Wedding - 26 May 2019 From the moment we visited Old Luxters to check out the venue, we knew it was the place for us. Set in the gorgeous countryside outside of Henley-on-Thames and boasting an actual vineyard, it's beyond picturesque! Charlie, our planner based at the venue was so incredibly helpful. We changed our minds a fair few times during the planning process - with ceremony and table layouts, but Charlie was so organised and nothing was too much trouble. On the day she was magnificent! Some rain in the morning meant some last minute changes, but it was totally stress free for us as it was all handled so professionally by the venue. Could not recommend enough - a stunning, rustic barn, romantic cobbled courtyard, wonderful marquee, and simply the most stunning vineyard where you can take your couple pictures... what more could you want!?Exceptional from start to finish Venue Service By Dan Carter, on 26 Jul 2019Date of Wedding - 10 May 2019 Old Luxters Barn proved to be an absolutely fantastic venue for our wedding day. Our wedding planner, Lucie, did everything to get us organized and make us feel comfortable. She kept in regular contact with updates leading up to the wedding. We risked the English May weather and held the ceremony in the garden under the enormous tree. Lucie’s team were prepared for the “plan B” ceremony which would be held in the barn if it rained. The garden and vineyards make a beautiful setting. The barn is both cute and beautiful and can be decorated pretty much however you want. We went to town hanging greenery from the roof beams. Lucie was very open to ideas and helpful with the design, and also very clear about what we were/were not allowed to do (no hammering nails into the walls – fair enough!). There isn’t much to be saved in doing your own catering due to the corkage and services fees, but once committed to the onsite kitchen we discovered their menu was absolutely stunning. For mains, we had a vague idea about Lebanese food. The chef provided a bespoke menu for us to taste from and it was all delicious! The farmhouse is worth considering if the budget can stretch. Our family were delighted to be able to amble straight to bed after one-too many drinks. It’s large, characterful and comfortable. Finally, the staff on the night were brilliant, we barely noticed they were there! They ensure that everything goes to plan and avoid disrupting your day wherever possible, and are all very professional and polite. All in all, an exceptional venue and service from start to finish. Thank you to Lucie and her wonderful team for making it the best day of our lives!Our perfect venue Venue Service By Ben Brewer, on 05 May 2019Date of Wedding - 14 Apr 2019 Luxters is an absolutely beautiful venue. We fell in love with it the second we saw it. From the naturally beautiful barn to the amazing scenery; it’s a venue that offers naturally understated beauty. The staff are amazing and always happy to help. The food is perfect and drinks phenomenal. We’ve been back several times already to stock back up!There's a party at Old Luxters! Venue Service By Sharon & Sean Butler, on 28 Jun 2018Date of Wedding - 16 Jun 2018 The moment we walked through into the courtyard and through the barn doors, we both commented to each other that we 'had goose bumps'!! We knew that it was the perfect venue for us as we both felt the magic and the potential for us to have a truly inspired wedding. Initial conversations were the team were informative, considered and we were both made to feel comfortable with how anything could be possible. The date was confirmed quickly and the team were extremely helpful in our first consultation meeting, listening to our questions and coming up with suggestions. The detailed planning ensured that every aspect was covered from the very first guest arrivals through to the last song played, from timings, furniture, décor, activities and differing layouts throughout the day. Our guests were met and greeted with drinks with friendly and efficient staff. the Operations Manager saw that all went smoothly on the day according to our plans. We hauled 3 car loads of wedding 'stuff' to the venue the day before and every last item was checked to verify where it would be on the day (and it all came back afterwards!). The venue sparkled and the grounds were used to accommodate a hugely successful garden party that the kids enjoyed as part of our day. The food was fabulous and the wine and cider supplied by Old Luxters was a huge hit with our guests. All of our guests have commented on how beautiful the venue was, how fantastically organised and those smaller touches were noticed. We couldn't have wished for a more perfect wedding at THE perfect venue!Wonderful Venue Venue Service By Alex and Beccie, on 03 Dec 2018Date of Wedding - 06 May 2018 Old Luxters Barn is a very special venue and we had an incredible wedding day. Honestly the weather and the staff were fantastic on the day. Food and drink are delightful and the onsite accommodation is lovely, I highly recommend renting out the whole farmhouse for the night before and of your wedding, as it is so well kept and seriously charming. One thing to be aware of, this is a very popular venue, every weekend in peak season there is an event going on and this makes meeting with the planners difficult to organise, even in the weekdays. While the wedding planners are very polite and professional, they are extremely busy and not as readily available as advertised. There were also points where I felt that we were irritating them... this came as a shock as we only met with them 4 times in the year leading up to our day. Also, this lead to small things being missed, for example; our decorations were not set up to spec on the day and whilst the venue still looked fantastic, this was of course a bit frustrating. We were refunded the amount in full for those missing items within two weeks. Overall, We loved the venue and have already been back several times for drinks at the winery and brewery. if booking for your wedding, you will not be disappointed.A Perfect Wedding Day Venue Service By Sarah Starr, on 28 Apr 2018Date of Wedding - 08 Apr 2018 On our first visit to Old Luxters we fell in love with the beautiful barn and its stunning surroundings. Charlie was our wedding planner and was so helpful. She was always happy to assist during the planning process, from our initial booking all the way up to the week of the wedding. The bar and waiting staff at Old Luxters did such a fantastic job. They were helpful, friendly and professional at all times. A special thank you to Harry, our Operations Manager who did a wonderful job to ensure our day ran smoothly. The food was delicious and served hot and on time and we have had so many compliments from our guests. All in all, the attention to detail and hard work delivered by all the staff combined with this stunning location made for a perfect day! We are extremely grateful to everyone at Old Luxters for making our Wedding day a relaxed and joyful experience. It really was the best day of our lives – Thank you.Alpine wedding Venue Service By Rebecca and Adam Hayward, on 06 Mar 2018Date of Wedding - 04 Mar 2018 The team at luxters make you feel like you are the only bride in the world. The chef prepared a full custom meal for us, this was no extra charge and the quality was outstanding, you would think you were in france! All the food came hot and at the same time. We were able to build mulled cider into our drinks package and all leftover wine was given to us at the end of the evening. The barn had an amazing selection of wines, liquors and beer brewed on site. All decorations were put up and tidied away at no extra cost and the farmhouse was a slice of luxury!Amazing wedding day Venue Service By Laura & Dave, on 26 Jan 2018Date of Wedding - 20 Jan 2018 Thank you to Victoria and all of the team at Old Luxters for giving us an amazing wedding day.

Venue Service By Chris and Margaret, on 14 Sep 2017Date of Wedding - 01 Sep 2017 We were lucky enough to choose Luxter's as our venue and strongly recommend it to any other couples shopping around.

Wish we could do it all over again!The perfect day at a special venue Venue Service By Kirsty & Ryan, on 04 May 2017Date of Wedding - 27 Apr 2017 The moment we approached Old Luxters Barn as a possible wedding venue we were blown away by the surroundings, space and the absolutely beautiful, unique detail of the venue, which has everything to offer. Our wedding planner Lucie communicated regularly throughout and her expertise meant a much more calm approach to the wedding than could have been wished for!
