    Where do we start … Southend Barns you are incredible!

    Where do we start … Southend Barns you are incredible!
    From the moment we first visited the venue two and half years ago to now as Mr and Mrs Hewitt we only have positive things to say. I mean, how rare is that!

    Anyone looking at wedding venues please make sure you add Southend barns to your shortlist. You will not be disappointed!

    We instantly fell in love with the venue, the team and of course the food❤️! Everything was taken care of by the team on the day meaning we could relax and enjoy every moment. Nothing was too much trouble and we really felt that each and every person we met during the planning process and on the day wanted to do their best for us! Toby and Olivia we cannot thank you enough for all your support on the day.

    We are already desperate to come back … We must plan a vow renewal 😂.

    The whole package

    When planning our wedding, Southend Barns was the first venue we viewed. The following venues we found simply didn’t compare and so we ended up booking, mostly because of the stunning and picturesque grounds and decoration. The other reason we loved Southend Barns is because it only has the option of using their in house caterer - Roots. Choosing a caterer would have been difficult and time consuming so this was perfect for us. And the food was incredible!
    Every detail is thought of, the team at Southend Barns clearly know what they’re doing and have so much experience you feel like you don’t even need a wedding planner to help guide you. We certainly didn’t have one! With the support from Southend Barns team we had a seamless and perfect day, we couldn’t be more grateful.

    August Wedding 2021

    Best day ever! We fell in love with Southend Barns as soon as we saw it. We had our dream wedding at a beautiful venue. We had to reschedule a couple of times for COVID but it was so worth the wait. Don’t hesitate and book today. The Staff did a brilliant job, the food was delicious and the bridal suite is so cute.

    The most incredible day, venue and team

    Wow, thank you so much to everyone at Southend Barns! The team were incredible from the moment we had a first viewing all the way through until after the wedding was over. The service was faultless and nothing was too difficult! You saw our vision and helped us bring it to life. Neither I or my husband had to lay a finger throughout the day and everything was just perfectly organised. To top off what a wonderful team they all are, the morning after the wedding we had a slight medical emergency (all absolutely fine now!) and I couldn’t have expected a more thoughtful, supporting and caring team of people to have around us!

    Thank you again Southend barns for helping us have the most amazing day we could have ever wished for!

    Our Dream Wedding Day

    From the second we viewed this venue we knew it was the one, Mariella and all of her staff were second to none in their service nothing was too much to ask. Laura on the day for us was absolutely outstanding she made our day run so smoothly her service was impeccable she kept the groom calm and collected, and reassured me when I got very emotional. Nothing was too much to ask from anyone even when we made last minute changes it was never a problem. It was our dream wedding and more I would recommend this venue to anyone thank you to Mariella, Laura and the rest of there team you are truly amazing.

    Simply perfection!

    From start to finish, our wedding day experience at Southend Barns was absolutely perfect.

    We first saw it on a cold, wet January day and immediately knew it was where we wanted to get married. Despite the rubbish weather, it looked amazing and was so warm and inviting, we knew it was the one for us.

    The whole style and attention to detail at Southend Barns is spot on. It is perfectly rustic, and so beautiful everywhere you look- from the fire pit in the collecting yard, to the gorgeous beams in the diary barn, the wood burning fire in the bridal suite, and the huge expanse of rustic style in the threshing barn. Not to mention the endless little touches- like the fur throws on the chairs outside, the plants in pots, the landscaped lawns, the fairy lights in the reception barn, and even posh hand cream in the toilets! It made us realise that we wouldn't really need to spend any extra on décor and styling- because it was all there waiting for us!

    Aside from how stunning Southend Barns itself is, the whole team- including Mariella, Alice, Laura, Amy, Sophie and the bar manager (Mark?), are endlessly professional and supportive, and they really couldn't do enough to make our day the absolute best day of our lives. From the beginning, they answered our many emails and queries so promptly, helped us with ideas for our day, and then on the day itself they made sure it went without a single hitch and were so lovely and friendly- we were made to feel incredibly special.

    I really can't express enough just how amazingly special Southend Barns and all of its team really are. You will not be disappointed if you chose to have your wedding day here!

    The best day every!

    This was the second venue we looked at and as soon as we saw it we knew it was THE one. The whole day ran so smoothly, we didn’t have to do anything or worry about a think they took care of everything. The service was second to none. Everyone has said so many comments about how amazing the day was and how beautiful the setting was. Would absolutely 110% recommend to anyone looking at this venue.

    Wonderful Southend Barns

    We got married at Southend Barns in August 2018 and had the wedding day of our dreams. The Southend Barns and Field and Fork teams are absolutely outstanding. They are experts in the best in the industry. Nothing is too much trouble for them. They listen to your visions and ideas and just make everything happen effortlessly. Rob from Field and Fork who ran the operation on the day is absolutely phenomenal at what he does. He filled us with confidence as soon as we met him and he ensured that everything on the day was absolutely perfect. The level of service delivered by Rob’s Team was extremely high. My background is in premium hospitality so I’m rather fussy when it comes to good service and they absolutely blew my socks off! The service was professional, effortless and unobtrusive. Everything just happened and the staff seemed to know what our guests needed before the guest even knew themselves!

    The venue itself is absolutely stunning. Every detail has been carefully considered and the grounds are immaculate. There are beautiful flowers everywhere. The two barns are gorgeous and so atmospheric. The venue also have a number of fantastic props that you can borrow (included in venue hire cost) such as a postbox for cards, blankets, sheepskin bench covers, room dividers, lawn games and centre pieces. The attention to detail is second-to-none.

    We knew we wanted to get married at Southend Barns from the moment we stepped inside and met Mariella. Our wedding day completely exceeded our expectations. Our guests are all still talking about it. Thank you Southend Barns... you are absolutely wonderful.
